As I understand it the cars are actually built at Ford's factory in Kōln, Germany., not at a VW factory.

Against the wind... 😁Ordered AWD version with 19" wheels couple weeks ago, same color as this (Lucid Red) after I had test driven it second time. Somehow it did feel comfortable and steady after I have tested few other cars. I like the compact size and as far the golfbag fits in trunk, I'm happy. And Maybe I'm weird, but I like the looks too 🙂

The Explorer is a cooperation car from both brands, vw and ford. It's build on ford's own factory and some things are borrowed from vw. Like the switch to open the windows, the buttons on the steering wheel, control the headlights, the dash screen, the engine, the meb platform and the touch volume. The rest it's Ford's own team who have optimised the rest and developed it.

Nice romanian Design by Liviu Tudoran 🇷🇴

I love the flat charging curve, at 300kw charging stations you have no restriction on power sharing.
And it doesn't matter at which SOC you connect the car 😊

I test drove the ID.4 2024 style today and I thinks it pretty noisy. Especially the engine whine. What to do, unless you are loaded? 🧐

3:46 People have a lot of difficulties to understand that a "speed limit" is not the speed you must match but the limit you are not allowed to exceed. If following safety regulations is too frustrating, just don't drive. BTW, the impact of speeding is very small on the total travel time, but it makes having an accident quite more possible and it makes accidents significantly more deadly. Not to mention of 100% drivers who speed tickets... were speeding. Finally, if an audio warning is not enough and is too easy to switch off, the next iteration of the regulation will a hard speed limitation of the car with no possibility to switch it off.

Just note that sometimes the car picks the speed limit signs valid for the highway exits, while on the highway, and in many cases the speed limits have nothing to do with safety but with green propaganda, see different limits for different hours, applicable even in weekends or official holidays!
About the noise, for electric cars, every kg of weight matters so don’t expect serious sound proofing!

Hej 👋 One question, is the software exactly the same for the infotainment screen as the VW, or is it totally different? For what I can see through the video, it seems different, but to what extent? 🙂 I'm also looking forward for the Capri

A good test of the Ford Explorer 👍
My pick of the MEB platform is :
1. Skoda Eniac L&K
2. Ford Explorer Premium
3. Cupra Tavascan
4. VW ID 4

[NilsMortensen-cj]

Thougt the premium version had black pillar trim and also black ceiling...

[vxnova]

How does it Stack up against the model y, price efficiency, range, acceleration etc, we priced the model y last year against the Mach e, ( explorer ev wasn’t available) the Mach e was slower, less range not as efficient and cost more money, so went with the y,

Skulle valt denna Ford framför ID.4 alla dagar! mycket snyggare i min mening :)

[guitarhero]

Couldn't just put regular looking wheels on electric vehicles...

[chasf]

So if you specify the top luxury model of a car these days you automatically get larger wheels with extra low profile tyres that give a worse ride and more road noise, plus cost more to replace. Typical motor industry marketing approach, style over engineering 😝

[andrewmeikle]

This is a no from me. I saw the Explorer at a car show and the interior felt disappointing. I don’t see myself getting anything other than a Xpeng for my next car tbh

[tonyb]

Basically a re-badged ID.4. Basically just another faceless, carbon copy, anemic electric SUV. Basically junk. Basically, along with the 'new' Capri, the end of Ford in Europe

[fragu]

Spot on.... too noisy, no comfortable suspension, soundsystem is 😢. I can't see why, except looks and being different, one would buy the Explorer. Either too expensive for what it is, or not enough car for what it costs....🤷🏻‍♂️
