Explorer sets a new standard.
The BUZZ-
Don’t take my word for it, below you will find a few examples of what people are saying about the new 2011 Ford Explorer
Performance
SUVs have always offered plenty of muscle, but many times it came at the expense of fuel efficiency. Explorer is changing that. The 2011 Explorer is better than the current Explorer V6–the 3.5L TiVCT V6 engine is best-in-class 25 highway mpg, 290 horsepower and 255 lb.-ft of torque. With all that power and torque, Explorer can tow up to 5,000 lbs. when properly equipped. An SUV that deliver no-compromise power. That’s the all-new 2011 Explorer.
Smart
Ford engineers have designed features for the 2011 Explorer that are incredibly innovative and smart. For example, there’s the industry-first, Ford-exclusive inflatable rear safety belts* that spread crash forces over more areas of the body compared to conventional safety belts. The available Ford-exclusive Collision Warning System with Brake Support scans traffic ahead of your vehicle to detect slower moving vehicles based on a preset distance. AdvanceTrac® with roll stability control™ has been enhanced with the addition of Curve Control, helping provide even more control. There are even available rain-sensing wipers that automatically activate when precipitation is detected on the windshield. In the 2011 Explorer, smart features help provide you with peace of mind.
Technology
Explorer has a lot of high-tech intelligence to make your life on the road a whole lot easier. Take, for example, our easy-to-use in-car connectivity system, MyFord Touch™. With simple voice commands, you can make phone calls, choose music and more without taking your eyes off the road. Another great system is the available voice-activated Navigation System with integrated SIRIUS Travel Link™ that provides real-time weather, traffic, fuel prices – even movie times. Yes, there’s much more to Ford Explorer than outstanding performance and flexibility.
