Ford Kicked Off the Production of its 2016 Explorer

MANILA: Ford Explorer which has been one of the best-selling SUVs since its launch days in 1990s, has received a significant update in its looks. Ford has already started the production of the refreshed 2016 Explorer at the Chicago assembly plant, the first batch of which must be on the way of dealership of different parts of the Country. Company has inclined up the Explorer production after witnessing 24% increase in the sales figures of last years.

The 2016 model achieves a new face with slimmer head lights, different fog light housing, and restyled tail lights. A new mesh grille is positioned little higher than before, and there are also new wheel designs to be seen. The rear spoiler and roof tracks complete the look of this SUV. Ford would not offer updated exteriors with old interiors, so refinement are in terms of infotainment system with the SYNC 2, better quality leather wrapped seats, dash of satin-finished ash wood accents with aluminum brushing, and also new interior trims are available. Ford is also coming up with a new variant called the Platinum which claims to be more luxurious.

The earlier versions of 3.5 litre V6 and 3.5 litre V6 Ecoboost engines will be the same for the facelifted Explorer. What is new is the Ecoboost 2.3 litre engine which has taken the place of Ecoboost 2.0, and is capable of generating 270 HP of power and 406 Nm of torque. The engines of Explorers are mated with 6-speed automatic transmission.

With the order books for the updated Explorer already opened in May, the signs are encouraging so far to show the success of this SUV. Last year, 54,000 units of Explorers were exported in different markets including the Philippines, so the Filipinos should be ready to explore the new Explorer too.
