In terms of pulling power, the Everest can now match the Chevrolet Trailblazer with its 500Nm of torque while the single-turbo variant has 420Nm.
The new Bi-turbo engine is only available on the 4×4 A/T model priced at P2.3-million pesos while the base model 4×2 A/T at P1.99-million pesos. The pricing is for the Metro Manila area so there will be discrepancies when buying from provinces like Cebu, Negros, Davao, or Iloilo.
