      Good review. I want Ford to do well, more EV models the better. Really struggling to get the USP of the explorer. Similar boot space as so many crossover SUV. But price tag puts it in a class that I don't see it fitting.

    I plan to go electric in 3 years and this car is one that would be in my shortlist. However, if Ford releases Capri EV and it looks as awesome as it is suspected, then that would be a much more likely candidate.

    Spot on about the price Tish, this is far too expensive. Until the small battery comes along, the cheapest Explorer is more expensive than the cheapest Mach-E. The smaller battery version will have far too small a battery for the price, so it’s lose lose. Ford need an EV Fiesta and Focus on their own EV platform, not a badge engineered version of the ID.4

    Very well video. In Denmark it is 35-40 t kr. less expensive than the ww id 4. That's a very good offer. Further range and better handling. What not to like.

    Hi Tish. Thanks for another nice review. Those range claims don't make sense to me. Do you know what efficiency you got? I'm very sceptical of the 4.5mpkWh combined reported by WLTP as that is in Model 3 territory. Given other choices such as the new Kona and Nissan Ariya have space for four adults my size(1.89m), heat pumps as standard and bigger boots for less this won't be on my shopping list.

    Stunning backdrop in this one. Can you do me a favour. When you get to 50k subs pickup the phone to Porsche and book whatever gets the new next gen Apple CarPlay. I know you won’t be the first but I would value your opinion on it. Hopefully it will then arrive in VW/skoda in a couple of years.

    It doesn’t have the wow factor like the Renault scenic, 3008 etc. Will be interesting to see what it’s like on pcp

    • @AutoSocialUK
      @AutoSocialUK  13 дней назад +1

      I’m not totally sure it can be compared to the 3008 due to being quite a lot smaller, but I do agree with you about the Scenic. Very few cars come close to being as well rounded as the Renault.

    • @brucegraham2251

      No need to stay ice as plenty other models of EV. The explorer seems mostly undistinctive. Things like tilting screen and massive middle storage hardly seem like game changers.

    In many countries in mainland Europe, Ford sells the big Explorer with a V6 PHEV drivetrain. It has nothing to do with the Explorer EV.

    Love 💕😘 the Ford Explorer EV. It's has a perfect interior and exterior. The dashboard is simple, but effective and eye-catching. The seats and updated and modern especially the front seats. Absolutely perfect exterior design, from the headlights to the taillights, everything is excellent. This is an excellent job by Ford. They really got it right. I just don't like EVs because they catch on fire very easily.
