Double agent Photos: 2011 Ford Explorer Spotted in Dearborn
Yes, the Ford Explorer still exists. It'… little less popular these days though. Probably has something to do with all that useless off-road and towing ability. Today'. SUV buyers want cush instead and lots of it.
The prototype you see here should deliver. It'. an early test mule for the 2011 Ford Explorer and underneath all the camouflage is the same .4 platform used by the Ford Flex. That'. would be of the unibody variety, so this Explorer should ride more like . car than . softly sprung truck..
Interior space should be improved as well which should make for more useful third-row seats. You know, sort of like the Flex. In fact, this Explorer will probably use the same engines as the Flex too..
So why bother making this Explorer if it's just going to be a rebodied Flex? Don't worry, Ford will have a very long explanation for it sometime next year when the official production version debuts. More pics after the break.
