After months of teasing, Ford's new electric Explorer is finally here. It's attractive, boasts advanced autonomous drive features, and has a spaceship-level dash. It's also not coming to the US.
teasing a coming lineup of all-new EVs, Ford has finally revealed its new Explorer; an all-electric family SUV that sits between the Volkswagen ID.3 and Volkswagen ID.4 in size. What's more, it's Europe-only.
Though the Explorer majors much more on practicality, somehow Ford has managed to turn a fairly bluff front-end styling and generally boxy silhouette familiar to properly sensible family SUV into an attractive design. Ford, it turns out, was keen to avoid being boring—something that it was accused of by customer focus groups when the brand started to put plans for the Explorer together.
“My American colleagues love it,” says Leenarts, “I wouldn’t design a car that the mothership doesn’t like. But it is very much a European product. We were adamant about making it compact and parkable for our customers over here. For instance, keeping it short—it’s only a couple of centimeters longer than a Focus but has more luggage space than a Mondeo.”
