[mreyes]

I LIKE !

[boybi]

No mention of what engine will be used for this model.

[saipeme]

wow! i like it a true suv indeed...may diesel daw ba?

[Starex_Gold]

Goodluck kung merong Diesel

Bibilihin naman yan kahit walang diesel. hehehe.. Ok naman ako sa FC ng Explorer ko ngayon, tipid considering na 4.0L V6 at mabigat

[boybi]

SG, ano FC ng explorer mo?

[saipeme]

medyo malabo nga ang diesel dito american car kasi hehehe unlike sa europe gas and diesel lagi ang powertrain...

[Starex_Gold]

SG, ano FC ng explorer mo?

4.2km/L = bumper to bumper traffic (yung parang 1 hour ka sa Alabang )
5.5-7km/L = normal city drive
9-12km/L = highway drive

Pag hataw mode sa highway at konting city.. 10.5km/L

Hindi ko pa na-try yunug cruise control ON * 100 KPH, 5th gear. Pero sa tingin ko kaya nun mag 13km/L Kasi less than 2000RPM ang 100 KPH

Super Unleaded lang naman ang kinakarga ko. next time try ko Petron blaze para walang ethanol.

237hp 2.0 liter EcoBoost
290hp 3.5 liter Ti-VCT V6 (available with Intelligent four-wheel drive)

[Starex_Gold]

Both Gasoline, right?

Mukhang mas maganda yung 3.5L Ti-VCT. 210HP lang yung current Explorer. Tapos yan 290HP na :shocked2: Tapos smaller engine.

Ganda ng FC nyan for sure..

Ang tanong lang eh... magkano?

Yup, they also shaved off some weight.
The new Explorer uses an aluminum hood and a unibody construction.

Videos: 2011 Ford Explorer shows off its tech

Unless you've been in seclusion for the past 24 hours, you know Ford officially unveiled the 2011 Explorer yesterday. (Be sure to read Part One and Part Two of our deep dive for the full details.) The new Explorer is a pretty drastic departure from the generations preceding it – Ford has opted to use a unibody construction and a car-based platform rather than a traditional body-on-frame SUV, and naturally aspirated V8 power has been ditched in favor of more fuel-efficient four- and six-cylinder powerplants.

So while the Explorer seems to fit better in the crossover classification, Ford is confident that traditional SUV shoppers will still be pleased with what the new Expy has to offer. There are a host of new technology features on the 2011 model, including things like blind spot monitoring, trailer sway control and a terrain management system (similar to what you might find on a Land Rover). These features will be attractive selling points to SUV-oriented customers, and they get detailed in the videos after the jump.

At last, yellow turn signal lights

I wonder how they managed to squeeze out 237HP from a 2.0L engine. Yun Ecoboost ba, turbo ba yun?

Yes, the 2.0 liter EcoBoost engine is Turbocharged and has Ti-VCT (Twin independent Variable Camshaft Timing) & direct injection, while the 290hp 3.5 liter Ti-VCT V6 engine is naturally aspirated.
