I have owned and worked on Ford products for years and I am now driving an 07 Explorer 4.0 liter. 1 transmission and multiple soft parts and switches >300.000.
Klm. and still looks and runs great.
I am a Ford fan and will continue to be one, however the Rxplorer is looking dated. Come on you guys time for a Ford Home run. How about a totally resigned Ford Explorer. Hey how bout a diesel or a hybrid

Kia EV3
VS
Think of the Ford Explorer EV as the big, brash American SUV that brings proper space, towing potential and long-distance confidence, while the Kia EV3 is the clever, compact EV that packs smart tech, efficiency and value into a far more city-friendly package. Choose the Explorer if you need family-hauling range and road-presence; pick the EV3 if you want nimble handling, lower running costs and more money left over for coffee stop detours.
Ford Capri
Ford Explorer EV
VS
The Ford Capri is a cheeky, analogue icon that rewards you with pure-driver thrills, whereas the Ford Explorer EV is a spacious, gadget-rich electric SUV built for practicality and long-distance calm. Choose the Capri if you crave character and a cornering grin; choose the Explorer EV if you need range, room and the smug satisfaction of skipping the forecourt.
