Explorer Sport Trac

 

A redesigned version of the original mid-size SUV/pickup crossover (it features a small cargo box grafted behind the rear seats of an enclosed cabin) debuts during 2006 as an early 2007 model. The truck is built on a new platform that is nearly five inches longer, two inches wider, and two inches lower than the previous Sport Trac model, with added interior room and a larger bed that provides a 30-percent increase in cargo capacity. It rides on a new suspension that includes an independent rear array for the first time for better ride and handling qualities with less vibrations and harshness. Ford's sophisticated Roll Stability Control is included for safety's sake; this system helps prevent the vehicle from rolling over in extreme maneuvers by briefly pinching the vehicle's anti-lock brakes one wheel at a time if the system detects a potential rollover or loss of control is about to occur. A 4.0-liter V-6 is the standard powerplant, with a 4.6-liter V-8 available that adds muscle and enhanced towing capabilities. Both rear- and four-wheel drive models are offered. A high-performance SVT Adrenalin version is said to be in the works for 2007 and will come powered by a 390-horsepower supercharged V-8 engine.
