Ford Explorer styling
So, this Ford might share an existing platform with Volkswagen, but externally it couldn’t be more different. Ford has designed the Explorer to look like a true SUV, with chunky styling cues and large alloy wheels.
At the front, the grille area is blanked off, with the exception of low air intakes to aid battery cooling. It’s a more angular design than the Volkswagen, especially side-on. Chunky body trim pieces help give it an SUV flair, and large alloy wheels fill the huge arches nicely.
At the rear, the C pillars taper neatly, blending seamlessly with the boot lid. Again, the rugged flair of this vehicle shines through at the rear, where you’ll find black off-road inspired trim making up most of the rear bumper.
Ford Explorer interior and tech
Inside, the interior is all-new, with the only carry over being the large 15in portrait infotainment screen that looks very reminiscent of the one found in the Mach-E. It’s compatible with smartphones thanks to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The driver can even adjust the angle of the screen to suit their preference. Standard equipment is impressive too, with heated front seats, an electrically operated tail gate, dual-zone air conditioning and even a heated steering wheel featuring across all models.
Ford Explorer drivetrain
From launch, a 77kWh battery will be available, which is enough to give the Explorer a range of up to 374 miles. It utilises a single 280hp electric motor at the rear, although an all-wheel drive dual-motor model will be available too in conjunction with a slightly larger 79kWh battery pack.
This model will be able to get from 0-62mph in just 5.3 seconds and provide up to 330 miles of range. Following its initial launch, a 51kWh model will also be offered, with the range of that model dropping to approximately 230 miles.
