Jubilee 15 000th Ford Explorer manufactured in «Аlabuga»

30.05.2017
At the Ford Sollers plant in "Alabuga" the 15,000th Ford Explorer came off the assembly line. The most popular SUV in the United States for decades, Ford Explorer has gained wide popularity in Russia, largely owing to a serious vehicle’s adaptation programme for the domestic market.

The jubilee Ford Explorer is a Limited Plus model in Frozen White colour, equipped with a V6 Cyclone engine rated at 3.5 litres (249 hp) and a 6-speed automatic transmission. This Ford Explorer model is also equipped with a number of driver assistance systems (adaptive cruise control, blind spot information system, and lane keeping system).

The legendary SUV is the most capacious in the Ford SUV line in Russia: it can comfortably accommodate 7 people, with the third row of folding seats included in the basic equipment of the vehicle. Due to the efforts of the own R & D centre of Ford Sollers, a lot of changes have been made to the design of the American SUV that made its operation more convenient in Russian conditions.

The standard package of its safety features includes a complete set of airbags, including the knee one and curtains for seats of all rows, as well as electronic systems of traction control, driving stability, and assistance when starting uphill.
