It’s already been spotted in the Melbourne CBD and Victorian countryside but now the new Ford Everest has been caught testing in the Swedish snow.

The Ranger-based SUV is moving closer to production even though the bodywork remains a rudimentary hybrid of the Ranger front paired with the rear end of a Territory.

Although Ford has been quiet on the Everest ever since it revealed the concept at the Go Further event in Sydney in 2013, more details about the seven-seat SUV continue to emerge.

One test mule spotted was seen with a different, more complex and refined, suspension than the working-class Ranger. That adds weight to Ford’s claims that the Everest will offer class-leading ride when it goes up against the likes of the Holden Colorado 7 and Mitsubishi Challenger, which have been criticised for their commercial-like ride comfort.

That will also help ease the gap left by the Territory when it stops production in 2016, as its replacement, the US-sourced Edge, is only expected to be offered as a five-seater.
