Although this generation of explorers pays more attention to the adjustment of comfort, for the explorers family, movement is always engraved in the bones. This test drive involves a variety of complex road conditions, and relatively comprehensive road conditions can better test the dynamic performance of the vehicle.
This time we test drive the Explorer 2022 light hybrid 550T RS intelligent expansion version. It is equipped with general purpose 2.0T high-power engine, with the highest power of 174kW and a peak torque of 350N·m. It is not at all inferior to the same level on the books. Although there is no chance to conduct a 000-100km/h acceleration test this time, according to official results, the vehicle can accelerate 0-100km/h in 7.9s, and the acceleration performance has certain advantages compared to models of the same level.
Thanks to the addition of the 48V mild hybrid system, the performance of the whole vehicle in the initial stage is relatively smooth, which is very consistent with the characteristics of a home SUV. When the vehicle starts, it uses pure electric drive, which can also prevent the engine from running inefficiently, further improving the fuel economy and smooth driving of the entire vehicle.
