"This is a new Explorer adds a class-leading fuel economy and legendary skills portfolio, performance and convenience for customers," said Jim Holland, chief nameplate engineer. "Customers in general SUV - and customers Explorer, in particular, - told us they want the freedom and empowerment Explorer has always stood for performance and significantly reduce fuel consumption."

It offers two new engines - the high-tech direct injection turbo four-cylinder that comes on the commitment to EcoBoost Ford Motor Company and a reagent, V6 fuel consumption - the exploration of new capabilities to balance environmental responsibility.
Explorer V6 sets a new benchmark.
The Explorer 3.5-liter V6 offered as standard equipment on base models, XLT and Limited. Delivery of an expected improvement in fuel economy over 20 percent compared to the current Explorer, this sweet and powerful V6 provides intelligent all-wheel drive (4WD) in the management of land. Improved efficiency can be more than the Explorer fuel economy for the 2010 Honda Pilot and other vehicles in the segment.
Using Ti-VCT optimized fuel economy and some emissions reductions, this engine delivers an estimated 290 horsepower and 255 lb.-ft. of torque.
This V6 engine is very developed Explorer application, which has a series of measures to improve mechanical efficiency, increases fuel consumption, lower emissions, reduce operational costs and improve stamina.
Mechanical efficiency, performance and fuel economy was improved by Ti-VCT, a belt of low voltage offers a one-way clutch to the generator, a direct acting mechanical bucket (DAMB) valve train with bucket polished to reduce friction, the piston cooling jets, improved bay to bay breathing through the engine block and composite cam covers, reducing engine weight.
Ti-VCT allows precise control and variable valve overlap, or when the intake valves and exhaust valves are open simultaneously. This allows for greater mechanical efficiency of the response and improve performance, while optimizing fuel consumption. As part throttle conditions, Ti-VCT reduces emissions.

The 3.5-liter V6 also features an improved technology to close the deceleration fuel to maximize fuel economy closed throttle.
Explorer V6 has been designed for resistance to chain-driven camshaft, high-strength forged powder metal connecting rods floating pin, full counterweight crankshaft made of forged steel, cast aluminum deep sump oil pan and the four captive bolt main bearing caps half of bolts to the engine block.
Noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) characteristics are controlled and reduced by a collector tuned composite upper and lower, the silent chain drive cam and acoustic hood.
Explorer 3.5-liter V6 produces best-in-class fuel economy, provides the strength to tow up to 5,000 pounds when properly equipped.

EcoBoost 2.0-liter I-4 normally aspirated V6 provides punch.
SUV drivers looking for maximum fuel efficiency, Ford launches all-new Explorer with a provision EcoBoost2.0 liter I-4. Combining gasoline direct injection and turbocharging, this engine offers advanced performance comparable to normally aspirated V6 engines competitive. Development of a maximum of 237 horsepower at 5500 rpm, the I-4 delivers 250 lb-ft of torque.
Estimated fuel economy improved by over 30 per cent, with a fuel efficiency of the Ford Explorer, in line with the V6 sedans like the Toyota Camry 2010.
Like other Ford EcoBoost engines, maximum torque generated at a low speed 1700 4000 rpm on a broadband connection. The plateau of torque allows a flexible and efficient power delivery in a motor vehicle speeds and wide, helping to save fuel with the force levels at low speeds. Ti-VCT, four valves per cylinder and mechanical valve lifters Damba increase efficiency through improved engine breathing through a wide power and torque bands.
A relatively high compression ratio has enabled the use of gasoline direct injection, which is the fuel pressure in 2200 and 2800 psi. The only turbo EcoBoost in an optimal way to I-4 engine and the behavior of the vehicle performance SUV. Precise control of fuel pressure allows the Explorer I-4 to provide more power at low speeds, without the annoying lag turbo.
The EcoBoost I-4 uses 5W30 oil-GF4 to reduce friction and reduce cost of ownership with intervals of 10 000-mile oil change.
Sustainability target is 10 years or 150,000 miles. Actions include the longevity of oil filtration and cleanliness, the addition of an aluminum oil cooler with improved heat dissipation and inter-cast rods cooling inside the aluminum engine block. This engine is the first U.S. market with brick-style charge air cooler that provides more thermal efficiency.
The 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine is introduced worldwide by Ford Motor Company, with applications in various products in Europe, Asia and Australia, plus the new Explorer.
EcoBoost technology will be important in the efforts of Ford global sustainability, power up to 1.3 million cars a year by 2013.
