Ford updates the much loved Explorer SUV for 202 with mixed results. The Ford Explorer originally arrived in 2001 and has been a staple in family transportation but now the competition is fierce. The latest Ford Explorer is built on a new rear wheel drive architecture for improved handling but the ride is rather rough. Power now comes with a standard 300hp 2.3L turbocharger, or EcoBoost, 4-cylinder engine or an optional 3.0L turbocharged V6 in the top trims. Power goes to standard AWD through a new 10-speed automatic transmission that does a good job but at times it searches for the correct gear. The interior of the all-new Ford Explorer still has room for 7-passengers over three-rows but the third row isn't very comfortable and others do a better job. The front seats, however are amazingly comfortable with excellent padding. The Sync infotainment system is a standard 8-inch unit or an optional 10.3-inches. The instrument cluster can also be equipped with a virtual cockpit. The materials inside this new Explorer are what let it down the most. The plastics and fit of the materials is second rate compared to other new entries in the mid-size utility space like the Kia Telluride and Hyundai palisade. Overall, this new Explorer is a missed opportunity, it should have come with a better interior to compete in todays market.
