Ford’s Explorer electric SUV will cost £39,785 and go on UK sale in August 2024 – about nine months behind schedule. But the Blue Oval has used the delay to good effect, updating the battery tech to boost DC charging and range – the bigger battery variant can cover up to 374 miles, which Ford reckons is class-leading for now.
There are three electric motor options, with either rear-wheel drive or part-time four-wheel drive in the flagship version. Here’s how the specs break down:77kWh , 210kW e-motor , rear-wheel drive, 374-mile range /4.47 miles per kWh, 355-mile range /4.23 miles per kWh – £45,87579kWh , 250kW e-motor , four-wheel drive, 329-mile range/3.96 miles per kWh, 305-mile range /3.74 miles per kWh
No word yet on the capabilities of the base Ford, but the entry-level, £40,145 ID.4 has a 125kW motor and accelerates from zero to 62mph in 9.0sec. ‘Lexie’s journey has been the ultimate test drive for our new Ford Explorer, taking on every kind of weather and road condition, and dealing with just about every charging scenario,’ said Martin Sander, general manager Ford Model e Europe. ‘It embodies the true ‘can do’ spirit of this company.’and Focus European hatchbacks, in come electric models which trade on Ford’s American roots to make them stand out.
So while the batteries, motors, suspension and key dimensions are shared, Ford has designed a unique ‘top hat’ for the MEB platform. The proportions and glasshouse betray the VW underpinnings, even though Ford says it’s pushed back the windscreen. The pictured car is an Explorer Premium, but the two-tone dashboard is standard across the range. The lighter grey lower section lifts the ambience, and the horizontal sections – including the discrete vent strip – continue the exterior design theme. There’s no leather option: seats are either part or wholly upholstered in sporty, manmade Sensico.
