Portland Ford Dealership: Go ‘Green’ with the 2011 Ford Explorer

CNET recently posted an article about the environmentally-friendly 2011 Ford Explorer. Not only will drivers receive impressive fuel economy, but they will feel great driving in a car that is made of 85% recyclable material.

Using the recycled material helps Ford to reduce energy consumption, eliminate waste, and produce less CO2 emissions. Drivers will also notice that this material is lighter weight, meaning the Ford Explorer receives better gas mileage than if it used non-recycled material.

Along with the EcoBoost engine, the 2011 Ford Explorer shows Ford’s commitment to the environment by providing drivers with a vehicle they can be proud of.

Ford has made tremendous strides, not only in improving fuel economy in the new Explorer, but also in using more environmentally friendly materials.

New Ford Cars: Curve Control Adds Another Layer of Safety

The 2011 Ford Explorer will offer driver’s a new level of safety, with the debut of Ford’s Curve Control. CNET wrote an article to review this innovative new technology.

When the 2011 Ford Explorer hits the road later this year, Curve Control will be standard. This system measures the speed and steering of the driver, applying the brakes if necessary. This technology will help to prevent crashes on curves, which accounted for over 50,000 accidents last year.

[Curve Control] is different in that it measures how quickly the vehicle is turning and compares that to how quickly the driver is trying to turn and responds by applying “the precise amount of braking required on each wheel to enhance the individual wheel braking of the traditional stability control system. – Antuan Goodwin, CNET
