Introducing the Ford Explorer EV: A Game-Changer in the Mainstream Market

The automotive landscape is about to witness a significant shift with the introduction of the Ford Explorer EV. This groundbreaking vehicle marks a departure from traditional Ford models, as it is based on a Volkswagen architecture and boasts an all-electric powertrain. Priced at £40,000, the Explorer EV is set to redefine the concept of a mainstream, family-sized Ford.

Revolutionizing the European market, Ford has strategically replaced its low-margin models like the Fiesta and Focus with more profitable crossovers such as the Puma and the Explorer. This bold move signifies a new era for the Blue Oval brand, with legacy model names being revamped to cater to evolving consumer demands.

Despite facing challenges during its development, including delays and re-engineering efforts to incorporate advanced battery technology, the Ford Explorer EV has finally hit the roads for test drives. The real question now is: how does it perform on the road?

Our team recently took the Explorer EV for a spin around the picturesque yet rain-soaked streets of Ljubljana, Slovenia, to put it through its paces. Stay tuned as we uncover whether this innovative electric vehicle lives up to the hype and delivers an exceptional driving experience.
