Ford Philippines is adding a dose of visual flair and functional upgrades to two of its popular models with the launch of the new Everest Sport Special Edition and Ranger Sport Special Edition. Both vehicles build on their existing variants with added features aimed at drivers looking for bolder styling, added utility, and modern-day connectivity. Both are limited editions, offering customers a more exclusive take on Ford’s popular Sport variants.
Everest Sport Special Edition
The Everest Sport Special Edition enhances the midsize SUV’s presence with a number of blacked-out elements including a black roof and rear spoiler, 20-inch black alloy wheels with red inserts, and bold hood lettering. Available in Aluminum Metallic and Snowflake White Pearl, this special edition is priced at ₱2,194,000. It continues to run on a 2.0-liter turbo diesel engine delivering 170 PS and 405 Nm, paired with a 6-speed automatic and a 4x2 drivetrain.
Inside, the cabin retains the premium feel of the Sport variant with leather and synthetic leather seat materials, a 10-inch touchscreen with SYNC 4A, wireless charging, and a power liftgate. Notable safety features include electronic stability control, traction control, hill launch assist, rollover mitigation, and seven airbags.
"The Everest Sport Special Edition caters to customers who are looking for a modern and sophisticated 7-seater SUV without compromising safety, technology, and efficient performance," said Ryan Lorenzo, director, Retail Product Marketing and Business Growth, Ford Philippines. "We are excited to give our customers another Everest variant that they will surely love."
Ranger Sport Special Edition
The pickup segment receives similar attention with the new Ranger Sport Special Edition. Drawing from the existing Ranger Sport variant, the new edition adds functional and aesthetic enhancements that cater to utility and off-road enthusiasts alike. Among its highlights are a new long-leg sports bar that enhances both style and cargo protection, and retractable cup holders integrated into the dashboard—a practical feature requested by customers.
Under the hood is the same 2.0-liter single turbo diesel engine, producing 170 PS and 405 Nm, mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. Buyers can choose between 4x2 and 4x4 drivetrains. The suspension setup includes a front double wishbone and rear leaf spring configuration, paired with ventilated disc brakes in front and drum brakes at the rear. The truck rides on 18-inch alloy wheels.
Interior appointments include an 8-inch digital instrument cluster and a 10-inch touchscreen with smartphone integration via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Available exterior colors include Absolute Black, Arctic White, Blue Lightning, and Meteor Grey. Pricing starts at ₱1,529,000.
"The Ranger Sport Special Edition is perfect for pickup customers who are looking for a more functional truck for loading or hauling, but with the same features found on and dynamic look of the Ranger Sport," Lorenzo added.
Both special edition models are equipped with FordPass, allowing remote functions such as engine start/stop with pre-cooling, door lock/unlock, vehicle locator, and vehicle status updates. They also come with a 5-year vehicle warranty.
