Ford Explorer
The Explorer midsize SUV is one of Ford’s most important vehicles as it caters to many North American families. The diversified powertrain lineup includes a fuel-efficient hybrid system and the performance-oriented Explorer ST with 400 horsepower. A new Timberline model is now available for outdoor and off-road enthusiasts, complete with increased ground clearance, more rugged tires and a limited-slip differential. Let’s not forget the ST-Line package offering sportier looks.
