Description:
The Explorer's base price is £39,875, but the Extended Range car with 374 miles of range and more power looks like the best option at £45,875.<br/><br/>Available only in Europe, the Ford Explorer has finally gone on sale months after it was originally planned to be released, but it looks like it was worth the wait. Ford has announced prices for the VW ID.4-based SUV, starting at attractive prices under £40,000 ($51,000); This makes it more affordable than both its Volkswagen cousin and the market leader Tesla Model Y.<br/><br/>The caveat here is that your £39,875 will only buy you one 168 hp (171 PS) engine and a tiny 52 kWh battery fitted to the entry-level ID.4, and a driving range likely to be less than 230 miles (370 km). is to present. ). And this base model won't even be available until the last quarter of this year.<br/><br/>But it still means that if you're every bit as patient, you can get into an Explorer for less than you'd pay for both the bottom-rung ID.4 and the Tesla Model Y; but not the £38,970 Skoda Enyaq. 60 also use the MEB platform. The Model Y starts from £44,990 in the UK, but offers 0-62 mph (100 km/h) in 6.6 seconds, making it much quicker than the Ford and has a range of 283 miles (455 km). ) has a longer range.<br/><br/>But for just slightly more than the cost of the base Model Y, Ford will sell you an Extended Range Explorer that's faster and goes further on a full charge. Using the same 77 kWh battery and 282 hp (286 PS) single-motor combination as the recently upgraded ID.4, the Extended Range hits 62 mph in 6.4 seconds and can cover a whopping 374 miles (602 km) on a single charge.<br/><br/>Again faster, but less useful for covering long distances, is the Extended Range AWD, which is actually Ford's version of the ID.4 GTX but with newer battery technology and was one of the reasons for the production delay. The dual-motor powertrain shares 335 hp (340 PS) between all four wheels and hits 62 mph in 5.3 seconds, although the top speed of 180 km/h (111 mph) is the same as the rear-wheel-drive Explorer.<br/><br/>However, the battery is slightly larger (79 kWh versus 77 kWh) and the DC charging rate has been increased from 135 kW to 185 kW, reducing the 10-80 percent charge time from 28 minutes to 26 minutes. On the downside, the extra weight of the AWD system pegs the range at a less impressive 329 miles (529 km). The Tesla Model Y Long Range is way ahead, with a range of 331 miles (533km), and it also beats the Explorer at lights, hitting 62 mph in 5.0 seconds, but not at £52,990 ($67k).<br/><br/>Ford doesn't say whether the dual-motor EV will outsell the Model Y LR, but the fact that the ID.4 GTX currently costs £54,205 and the mechanically identical Skoda Enyaq vRS stickers at £53,120 suggests it won't.<br/><br/>Source: https://www.carscoops.com/2024/03/europes-sub-40k-ford-explorer-undercuts-base-tesla-model-y/
