Back Ford SUVs

2008 Ford Explorer

Get ready for adventure.
Explorer’s 4.0l SoHC V6 engine powers your journeys with 210 hp and 254 lb. ft. of torque. Mated to a 5 speed automatic transmission, the V6 delivers an estimated 16.0 l/100 km** in the city and 10.8 on the highway. And the impressively quiet, comfortable ride? It’s courtesy of thoughtful engineering details such as the sound dampening carpet and headliner materials, the contour of the sideview mirrors, and overall powertrain operation. It’s time to go explore.
**Fuel consumption ratings based on Transport Canada approved test methods.

Athletic V8.
Explorer Limited s 4.6L 3 valve V8 engine and its first in class* 6-speed automatic transmission give you a massive 292 hp and 300 lb. ft. of torque.
*Truck based Midsize SUV class.

 

SMOOTH MOVES
You can count on the extreme flexibility of Explorer's 4-wheel independent suspension to help it hug the road. Monotube shocks and a 2nd generation Independent Rear Suspension also help it tackle rough terrain and uneven road surfaces in a remarkably civilized manner.
