Ford has confirmed a V6 Everest for the Middle East in November 2026: a 2.7-litre EcoBoost making 310 hp and 500 Nm through a 10-speed automatic, in Active, Sport, Platinum and a new Tremor trim. No UAE price has been announced.
Quick Answer
Four numbers are confirmed and worth writing down, because they are the ones that decide whether this SUV suits you: 2.7 litres, six cylinders, 310 hp and 500 Nm, driving through a 10-speed automatic. The range runs Active, Sport, Platinum and Tremor, and Tremor is new to the line-up.
What is not confirmed is the price. Ford has not announced UAE pricing, the Everest is not yet in our catalogue with a figure against it, and we will not put one there until it is official. If you are budgeting, budget against a quote you have in writing rather than any number you read in the meantime, including ours.
| Specification | Ford Everest V6 | What it governs |
|---|---|---|
| Engine | 2.7-litre V6 EcoBoost | Cylinder count and displacement, which set how the engine delivers its power |
| Power | 310 hp | Overtaking and gradient ability, and how the car feels when fully loaded |
| Torque | 500 Nm | Pulling away, towing and low-speed work in sand |
| Transmission | 10-speed automatic | How often the gearbox hunts on a climb and how it holds a ratio in soft going |
| Variants | Active, Sport, Platinum, Tremor | Which equipment and which suspension tune you are buying |
| Middle East arrival | November 2026 | When you can drive one rather than read about one |
| UAE price | Not announced | The one figure nobody can give you yet |
What Ford Says About Testing It Here
The launch comes with an account from Ford of how it develops vehicles for this region, and it is worth reporting as what it is: the company describing its own process. Ford says a Dubai-based product development team evaluates vehicles in local conditions alongside its global engineering organisation, covering cooling-system and air-conditioning performance at high ambient temperatures, interior and exterior materials under heat and UV, and behaviour across sand, rocky tracks, wadis and mountain roads. For electrified vehicles it says regional work includes battery thermal management and charging in extreme heat.
Ravi Ravichandran, President of Ford Middle East and North Africa, said: "Middle East customers expect capability, power, confidence and durability from their vehicles. Testing in the region helps Ford engineers assess vehicle performance in conditions that reflect how many customers use their vehicles."
Ford also describes a second stage it began this year, its MENA In-Market Voice of Customer Fleet Validation Program, with the Everest V6 as the first vehicle in it. Where development testing uses prototypes in controlled environments, this one places production-ready vehicles with drivers around the region before customer deliveries begin, so that issues found during those drives can be fed back while production is still running.
We cannot verify any of that from here, and we are not going to grade it. What we can say is what it would mean for you if it holds: a car specified against Gulf summer conditions rather than adapted to them afterwards. Whether this particular Everest delivers that is a question a test drive answers and a press release does not.
What This Means for UAE Drivers
A 2.7-litre V6 with 500 Nm is a meaningful step up from a four-cylinder in the situations that actually strain a family SUV here: a full car on a summer climb, a caravan or boat behind you, and soft sand where torque at low revs matters more than peak power. The 10-speed automatic is the other half of that: with ten ratios, the gearbox has more chances to sit in the right one instead of hunting between two.
The Tremor variant is the one to look at closely when it arrives, because on other Ford models that name signals an off-road oriented suspension and hardware package rather than a trim label. What it means on this car specifically is not something we hold, so ask what differs mechanically between Tremor and Platinum rather than assuming.
Three things to do when it reaches showrooms, in this order. Drive it in the afternoon in July or August, fully loaded, with the air conditioning at maximum, because that is the condition the specification is claimed against and the one you will live with. Ask for the price in writing, along with what the first three scheduled services cost and where your nearest authorised workshop is. And if you tow, take the tow rating and the actual hitch specification in writing too, rather than working from the torque figure alone.
We will add the Everest V6 to the catalogue with its UAE price and full specification when Ford publishes them. Until then this page carries the figures Ford has confirmed and nothing beyond them.
Frequently Asked Questions
When does the Ford Everest V6 arrive in the UAE?
Ford has said the Everest V6 is scheduled to join the Middle East line-up in November 2026. That is the arrival window Ford has given for the region; a specific showroom date for the UAE has not been announced, so ask your dealer to confirm one rather than planning around the month alone.
How much power does the Ford Everest V6 have?
310 hp and 500 Nm of torque, from a 2.7-litre V6 EcoBoost engine paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. Those four figures are confirmed by Ford. Fuel consumption, kerb weight and towing capacity have not been announced for the region, so we do not publish them.
What does the Ford Everest V6 cost in the UAE?
No UAE price has been announced. The Everest V6 is not in our catalogue with a price, and we do not estimate one, because a wrong price on a pricing site is the error a reader acts on. When Ford publishes it, this page and the catalogue entry will carry it.
What is the Ford Everest Tremor?
Tremor is one of four variants in the 2026 Everest range, alongside Active, Sport and Platinum, and it is new to the line-up. What it includes on this model has not been detailed for the region, so ask a dealer what differs mechanically between Tremor and the other variants rather than assuming it matches a Tremor package on another Ford model.
Is the Ford Everest V6 tested for Middle East conditions?
Ford says it evaluates vehicles regionally through a Dubai-based product development team, covering cooling and air-conditioning performance in high ambient temperatures, materials under heat and UV, and driving on sand, rocky tracks and wadis. That is Ford describing its own process, and we hold no independent measurements of it. Test drive the car loaded, in the afternoon, in summer.
