The all-electric Ford Explorer has won the renowned Red Dot Award. The international jury of the renowned design awards has assessed the striking exterior design and the high-quality technical equipment in the interior of the crossover models. The new Ford Explorer is active in Europe for Europe and will be produced in the Cologne Electric Vehicle Center in June. The Auszeichnung in the category “Product Design” has started with the Verkaufsstart in Germany.

“I have given a reduced form with graphic elements, the design building block of the US-Ikone Ford Explorer has been developed and reinterpreted,” says Murat Güler, chief designer of the new electric SUV, the design philosophy of the first fully electric volume models from Ford in Europe. “The Explorer has developed the best interior of Ford in Europe.

Mal vergeben.

New Ford Explorer with new design language

The new Explorer interprets the self-confident vehicle and the robust charm of the iconic SUV manufacturer from Ford that is new. While the powerful appearance and the self-standard identity of the American heritage of off-road legends sit, you follow the flying, futuristic and musky lines of the Leitsätzen aerodynamic efficiency. The black guided A-coils let the roof seem to slide over the bicycle. A vision optic has emerged that undoes the lifestyle appeal of crossover models. An inexplicable, harmonious line drawing embedded in the glass knows the most remarkable shaped C-coils. I profit from the striking result of the new explorer of compact, dynamic proportional proportions. In de Verbindung mit der schmalen Heckscheibe unterstreichen sie de Fahrzeugbreite. The “Light Blade” vertical display is characteristic of the SUV character.

The interior is surrounded by a sporty atmosphere, in which the wrap-around effect of the cockpits is supported: optically, the instrumentation can be used in the Türverkleungen, while it is a special element. Classical installation details with regard to the extremity of the ausgeführten Lüftungsdüsen step back visually. Statistics are becoming more modern, in the new technology in the foreground – so the sculptural figure is a soundbar that combines an inner timbre. Make sure you create an interior design with a minimalist style.

The Explorer would be offered in Germany with two drive options: as a pure rear tractor with a 210 kW (286 hp) strong electric motor that is in an all-wheel drive variant, the über two electric machines with installed 250 kW (340 hp) is painted. Both models see their power from a strong analysis, which has a longer “Extended Range” -Reichsweiten with lithium-ion batteries with nickel-manganese-cobalt technology (NMC). A “Standard Range” version with a strong 125 kW (170 hp) electric motor can put an end to the years.

Ford bought the new Explorer in Germany for 42,500 euros (1) for the rear-wheel drive model with standard batteries. The versions with extended-range batteries start at 49,500 euros (1). When the five-seater performed at the band’s Cologne Electric Vehicle Center, Ford made the production electric again with an investment in the amount of the US dollar.
