The Ford Explorer is the blue oval’s attempt at gaining mass traction into the EV market! It’s Ford’s second EV to hit uk roads after the Mustang Mach E.
Volkswagen and Ford have a partnership, in which they share certain commercial vehicles such as the Amarok being based on the latest Ranger and the New T6 being based on the Transit, and VW have also given Ford the use of their MEB electric car platform too which the Explorer is on and the upcoming Capri will also sit on.
The Explorer has launched with the extended range 77kWh models, later in the year we will see the standard range 52kWh model be available to order. Underneath, most parts are shared with the ID.4, however Ford have put their own spin on the design and have many elements which you won’t find in the ID cars too.
A huge thanks to Pye Motors Ford in Kendal for making this video possible & continuing to support the channel, also to Dan Park the Sales Manager, who organised a good chunk of time for me to spend with the vehicle! Thanks as well to Amelia, who came along with me in the Explorer and helped capture a few shots.

Brilliant review Sam and go Carcode being the first to have a review of the Explorer!! That’s quite an achievement and shout out to Pye Motors for making that possible 🎉😊❤ I know how much you love your VWs but I have to say I think Ford have done a better job with their parts than they did! Definitely going to make VW sit up and think when doing the ID4 facelift! Brilliant in depth review as always, keep up the good work 😊

@Carcode Месяц назад

Thank you! Yes Pye Motors have been excellent, I’m very lucky to be one of the first to review it on UK roads. I agree although I love VWs, the ID range lacks a bit of character, I think this is changing though, more so in the next generation of models like the ID.2all/GTI 🤞🏻 It’s great to see 2 big brands working together to make a great product!

Love how you show the wheel choices - very clever 😊

Crossed this off my list as i hated the front design but after seeing it in black ive completely changedmy mind, looks great

@Carcode 11 дней назад

Yes, the exterior colour can make a huge difference to the looks of a car! This is the same reason I like other cars in black as their accents blend in well, such as the Honda e which I think is best in black. It is definitely worth considering!

Great video as always. Commenting for the algorithm so more people get to see your reviews. Been a sub since your Tiguan review ❤

Thank you, I really appreciate it 😄

Hi Sam. A great review, very thorough indeed. It's an impressive looking SUV. Quite stunning especially in black. And the interior is superb. £50,000 is way too much for me but as you say it's the monthly price that matters to purchasers (via leasing).

@Carcode Месяц назад

Hi Andrew, thank you! It is a stunning looking machine, the black is rather sleek. Yes, EV list prices aren’t low it’s all about the monthlies for people now. I expect cash prices will come down quite a bit in a few years once leases end 😊

@oliverstemp9132 Месяц назад

It’s more interesting than the Skoda Enyaq and less dowdy than the VW ID4. Giving the Renault Scenic a good fight. Very nice review Sam.

@Carcode Месяц назад

It certainly is a good looking car! I think it will be a popular choice, especially for those loyal to the Ford brand, the stylish but rather straightforward design is what many are looking for and are not getting from more Avantgarde designs from the French manufacturers. I have to say the new Scenic looks great, but from looks alone I’d pick the Explorer. Thanks Oliver 😄

@adriansarah4921 Месяц назад

Great review - definitely on my shortlist.

@Carcode Месяц назад

Thank you! Definitely one to have a look at 😄

Hi Sam...best regards from Eisenach/Germany👋

@rjb1970 Месяц назад

I'd like to see it in a metallic orange, I quite like an orange SUV for some reason

@Carcode Месяц назад

That would work so well on the Explorer!

@johnmarkcaruana4037 Месяц назад

My main concern is the paronamic roof without a cover. Does it affect vision / glare and do you feel the heat from the sun?

@bobby4ever5 Месяц назад

I was considering this car but ultimately went with the Volvo EX30 Ultra Long Range. However, this Ford also seems like a fantastic option. Hopefully, I made the right choice with the Volvo, haha!

Great review

@Carcode Месяц назад

Thank you 😊

@HansOleBenonisen Месяц назад

It's a id4 with some eye candy.😅

@Carcode Месяц назад

👏🏻Exactly!

@CarsofGlasgow Месяц назад

OMG what a co-incidence! We both uploaded new Explorer EV videos on the same night!!

@Carcode Месяц назад

Wow 😆 think that makes us the first couple of UK reviews on the Explorer!

@CarsofGlasgow Месяц назад

@@Carcode oh maybe?! Look at us being first!

@richardwallace4483 21 день назад

Considering its base on the VW iD4 platform it has a smaller boot space 450ltrs vs 543ltrs (iD4) means pretty poor design considering the competition is an iD4 & the Skoda Enyaq with same platform and 585ltrs boot space.

@Carcode 4 дня назад

Yes although it is on the same platform, the Explorer is quite a bit shorter hence the smaller boot. Ford / VW actually aimed for it to be in between the size of the ID.3 & ID.4, although it is much closer in size to the 4. I prefer the design of the Ford & 450L is a decent boot for most people, however for bigger families etc, I can see them choosing the Enyaq / ID.4!

Please stop touching the black paint lol

@Carcode Месяц назад

Sorry, oops 👀😅

@garyrobson7849 Месяц назад

I might just get an explorer, or wait until I see if the dogs fit in a capri. Great review, twink does cars I love it!

@Carcode Месяц назад

I would say the Explorer is probably a more practical shape if you plan on having dogs in the boot, the coupe - SUV shape on the Capri might mean your pooches have less headroom. Thanks, I’m glad you enjoyed it 😄

@AlanMacdonald-on6nd Месяц назад

What a cracking car well outside my price range unless I win the lottery cracking video as well

@Carcode Месяц назад

Cheers Alan! It’s a great bit of kit, I can’t say it’s in my budget either, they could become affordable in a few years once the first set of fleet buyers finish their leases.
