The American SUV of the fifth generation "Ford Explorer" appeared on the domestic market not so long ago, but until a certain point, the novelty was not subjected to any research or test drives in Russia at all. Fortunately, things have improved a bit now. And now we are ready to tell you in detail all the information about the new generation of the Ford Explorer jeep. You will get feedback on its design and technical characteristics right now.
Appearance
The American novelty has really undergone significant changes in design. It is worth noting that the changes went to the benefit of the car. Judging by the reviews, the new 2013 Ford Explorer no longer resembles some workhorse or simple farm vehicle. Now this is a full-fledged luxury SUV, which will be highly valued not only in the United States, but also in Russian open spaces. Our businessmen will definitely not be ashamed to drive such a car, because the design of the novelty stands out against the background of the gray mass of other cars. By the way, thanks to smoother body shapes and short overhangs, the designers managed not only to emphasize the entire harsh appearance of the car, but also significantly reduce the aerodynamic drag coefficient, which has now stopped at 0.35.
Interior
Changes affected not only the exterior, but also the interior. The large spacious interior of the jeep can comfortably accommodate up to seven passengers. Finishing has become better in the fifth generation of the Ford Explorer. Owner reviews also note the new steering column, which can be easily adjusted in height and depth. The front row of seats has 8 degrees of adjustment, a lot of electronics have also appeared, including a functional on-board computer, which has now become an indispensable attribute of all models of the American concern.
"Ford Explorer" - technical specifications reviews
The range of engines has noticeably changed. Now, instead of large voracious engines, the novelty is equipped with more economical units. The main engine for the SUV is a 294-horsepower gasoline engine, the working volume of which is 3500 cubic centimeters. There is a more economical option with a volume of 2000 "cubes", but it will not be sold in Russia. This gasoline unit with a capacity of 237 "horses" and a volume of 4 liters will be available in all versions of the Ford Explorer jeep. The characteristics of this engine allow the car to spend no more than 13 liters of fuel per 100 km in urban mode. Outside the city, the fuel consumption indicator decreases to the level of 9 liters. Looking at the power of the latest power plant, it is safe to say that the American mechanics really spent maximum effort on developing a high-quality and reliable engine.

Expert reviews say that the basic equipment of a 7-seater jeep will be available to Russians at a price of 1 million 800 thousand rubles. The most expensive equipment will cost about 2 million 160 thousand.
