Ford Explorer Expert Review

This year Ford has introduced the all-new powerful Explorer in UAE. The current version appears with a unique design and is based on Lincoln Aviator's lighter rear-drive architecture. The unibody structure of this big SUV is strongly built and designed to encompass the adventures boldly. Further, the dynamic front grille matches flawlessly with the sleek design of the Explorer. In terms of interior enhancements, the new Explorer comes equipped with bigger screens, a revised dashboard, heads up display, spacious and luxurious seats. Explorer is available in Base, XLT, Limited, and Sport grades. The top variant is powered by the 3.5L V6 EcoBoost petrol engine, whereas the rest of the variants are powered by the 3.5L V6 Ti-VCT petrol engine. Besides the difference in powertrain, Ford has kept the safety and security features standard among all the grades. Along with this, several driver-assist technology features are also standard like, automatic on/off headlamps with rain lamp function, hill start assist, and cruise control.

Ford Explorer Interior & Features

Unlike the furious exteriors, the interiors of Explorer are relaxing. Explorer offers a big and spacious cabin and seating capacity of up to 7 passengers. You can fold the third row with just a touch of a button to extend the boot space. With all rows unfolded, you’ll get cargo capacity of 595 litres, and with 2nd and 3rd rows folded the cargo volume extends up to 2,314 litres. Apart from the dimensions of this SUV, on the comfort and convenience front, Explorer appears with the latest high-end tech features like heads up display that presents the information within the eyesight of the driver. The leather seats offer the utmost comfort, plus the Active Motion system is designed to accommodate the passengers with the lumbar massage. In terms of, multimedia and infotainment you’ll get 8-inch colour LCD touchscreen stacked in the centre of the dashboard. And, with the 390W Sony audio system that comes with 12 speakers, Explorer promises to amplify your journey further.

Explorer Exterior

Ford Explorer features a vibrant and modern appearance, there are few SUV’s out there that can match with the presence of Explorer. The chiseled exteriors look aggressive, reflect the robust character, and enthrall the attention while passing by. The exterior essence of Explorer is further elevated by the C-shaped configurable Daytime Running lights and elongated LED tail lamps. While Base, XLT, and Limited variants are equipped with dual bright exhaust tips, the top trims look a bit notched up with quad bright exhaust tips. Moreover, the dual-panel moonroof that is optional from the second grade looks fabulous and enhances the interiors of Explorer. This SUV can be equipped with six-wheel choices, though the 20-inch Premium Aluminum Dark Tarnish-painted wheels that are optional on the top-trims extends the aggressive character of Explorer further.

Ford Explorer Ride & Handling

The new Explorer comes with the enhanced ride and handling abilities. The sports tuned suspension perfectly balances the vehicle and keeps this SUV upright and ensures the high-end off-road performance. Moreover, with electronic power-assisted steering, it enables the tight handling and further heightens the ride quality. Plus Ford has equipped all the grades of Explorer with Curve Control system, which reduces the speed by 16km/hr/second as it senses that vehicle is turning at Overspeed. It then takes control of the vehicle and reduces the acceleration and activates the four-wheel braking simultaneously. This system works perfectly irrespective of the road condition to ensure that Explorer remains on the right track. 

Explorer Engine & Fuel Consumption

Being offered in 4 variants, the first three grades Base, XLT, and Limited are powered by 3.5L V6 Ti-VCT petrol engine. This powerful engine can deliver a maximum power of 290 hp at 6,500 rpm and torque of 255 lb. ft. at 4,000 rpm. And, the power is transmitted through six-speed auto SelectShift transmission. These variants come standard with two-wheel drive architecture but can be equipped with the optional four-wheel-drive system. Whereas, the top grade Sport is powered by the 3.5L V6 EcoBoost engine and can produce a maximum power of 365 hp at 5,500 rpm and torque of 350 lb. ft. at 3,500 rpm. Also, the top grade comes standard with the intelligent four-wheel drive architecture, and terrain management system. Whereas, it comes mated with the same six-speed auto SelectShift transmission system

Ford Explorer Braking & Safety

Ford Explorer comes with the intact safety features and security systems. All wheels of this SUV are equipped with disc brakes, and to further elevate the braking capacity of this SUV, it comes equipped with the Anti-lock Brake system that works in synchrony with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution and Emergency Brake Assist. The EBD keeps the braking force balanced between the front and the rear wheels as per the road condition. Whereas, when you suddenly apply the brake, then EBA senses the intention and automatically enhances the brake force to stop the vehicle. Moreover, in terms of passive safety features, you’ll get the world’s first second-row inflatable seat belts, that distribute the instant force and saves the passenger from whiplash injuries. Furthermore, you’ll get dual front airbags, and side curtain airbags stretched to all the three rows. 

Explorer Verdict

This SUV is perfect in every aspect. Explorer delivers utmost power and mileage of 10 km/l, extends the aggressive design with its newly revised styling, and keeps the passengers safe and secure in the luxurious and comfortable cabin. Also, Ford has installed the world’s first inflatable seat belts in the Explorer, which prevents passengers from the impact of the belt while braking at high speeds. However, the four-wheel-drive architecture comes optional with the base and mid grades Base, XLT, and Limited, and only comes standard with the top grade Sport.
