Ford Explorer Extended Range RWD

The Ford Explorer Extended Range RWD (MY26) combines bold SUV styling, impressive electric range, and modern technology to create a highly versatile family-focused electric vehicle. Designed specifically for drivers who need the practicality of an SUV alongside the efficiency of electric power, it delivers a balanced blend of comfort, performance, and long-distance capability.

Power comes from a rear-mounted electric motor producing 210 kW and 545 Nm of torque, delivering smooth yet responsive performance through a rear-wheel-drive layout. The rear-driven configuration provides a more engaging driving experience while maintaining excellent everyday usability. Acceleration from 0-62 mph takes just 6.4 seconds, while a top speed of approximately 112 mph ensures effortless motorway cruising and confident overtaking performance.

A substantial 79 kWh usable battery pack sits at the heart of the Explorer Extended Range, providing the energy needed for both daily commuting and longer adventures. According to EV Database estimates, drivers can expect a practical real-world driving range of around 280 miles on a full charge, making it a strong choice for families and business users alike. Official WLTP figures may vary depending on market specification, wheel size, optional equipment, weather conditions, and driving style.

Charging is designed to be fast and convenient. The Explorer supports Type 2 AC charging for home, workplace, and destination charging, alongside CCS DC rapid charging at up to 183 kW. Under suitable conditions, a typical rapid-charging session can take approximately 30 minutes, allowing drivers to quickly replenish the battery and continue their journey with minimal interruption.

Inside, the Explorer combines a spacious cabin with modern connectivity, advanced driver assistance systems, and flexible storage solutions. Its family-friendly interior, elevated driving position, and practical SUV dimensions make it equally suited to school runs, weekend getaways, and long-distance road trips.
