Yes, the Ford Everest does indeed have a diesel engine variant, particularly common in overseas markets. I drove one during my self-drive trips in Southeast Asia, such as in Thailand or Australia, where models equipped with 2.0L or 3.2L diesel engines are frequently seen. The biggest advantage of the diesel version is its excellent fuel economy—a full tank can easily cover over 800 kilometers on long-distance drives, saving significantly compared to the gasoline version. Its high torque characteristics make it especially suitable for off-roading and towing, providing steady and effortless power on uphill climbs or muddy terrains. However, it might be harder to find in the Chinese market now, as it leans more toward gasoline powertrains. Given its slightly louder noise and cold-start issues, regular maintenance of the filter system is recommended. Overall, if you frequently embark on long-distance trips or adventures, the diesel version is a reliable choice, known for its durability and lower daily operating costs.

The Ford Everest does have a diesel version, which I know quite well because our family previously owned an imported model. The fuel efficiency of the diesel engine is remarkable, with urban commuting fuel consumption as low as around 8 liters per 100 kilometers, making it economical and practical, especially for family trips—spacious and powerful. The high torque performs excellently on highways or mountain roads without the lag often felt in gasoline versions. However, it's not easy to purchase everywhere; in the Chinese market, it might have become less common in recent years, so checking import channels is necessary. The downside is a slight vibration and noise upon startup, though modern versions have improved sound insulation, ensuring daily comfort. I don’t find diesel version maintenance particularly complex, but the filter replacement frequency is higher. Choosing it mainly depends on your driving habits—if you prioritize economy, it's worth a try.

The Ford Everest is available with a diesel version. I have looked into this, and diesel engines excel in fuel efficiency, making them suitable for long-distance driving. From an environmental perspective, while diesel emissions are higher than gasoline, they comply with the Euro 6 standard, keeping pollution under control. The downside is that some regions have policies restricting their use. It is advisable to weigh the pros and cons before making a decision.
