Fuel Efficient Cars: The 2011 Ford Explorer Emphasizes Fuel Efficiency
The revamped, all-new 2011 Ford Explorer boasts a 25% improvement according to a great article by Ford in the News. With EPA approved ratings of 17 mpg city and 25 mpg highway, this marked increase in fuel economy is due to careful integration of features like six-speed auto transmission and twin independent cam shaft variable timing and makes all the difference for the Explorer’s V-6 engine.
The 2011 Explorer V6 … delivers a keen balance between power and fuel economy… and helps Explorer deliver 25 percent better fuel efficiency. This raises the bar for full-size SUVs, and will change buyer expectations for the entire segment. – Jim Holland chief nameplate engineer Ford Motor Company
Aerodynamic revisions also played a pivotal role in the 2011 Explorer’s ratings, but optimizing features like front-mounted air dam and rear liftgate lip spoiler coordination, also improved highway speeds. With the release in early 2011 of Ford’s EcoBoost engine Explorer drivers can expect 30% additional improvement in fuel economy!
