The 2020 Ford Explorer has been making quite the splash lately. Ford automakers revealed the base model last week, and earlier this week at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, the 2020 Ford Explorer ST and 2020 Ford Explorer Hybrid made their debut. While visitors to the Detroit auto show had a chance to see the new Ford Explorer, Shelbyville drivers don’t need to go all the way to Detroit to learn what to expect from the new trims.

So what will we see from the new Ford Explorer ST and Hybrid models? The 2020 Ford Explorer ST will be the most powerful – the 3.0-liter V6 engine boasts 400 horsepower and 415 lb.-ft. of torque, making this trim perfect for drivers who want excitement and power on and off the road. And with a top speed of 143 miles per hour, the 2020 Ford Explorer is also the speediest three-row SUV that drivers can get for under $60,000.

When it comes to efficiency, the 2020 Ford Explorer Hybrid brings a lot to the table. Thanks to its electric motor, which works with a 3.3-liter V6 engine, the hybrid trim promises drivers great fuel efficiency. And with a fuel tank that can hold 19.4 gallons, the model has an EPA-estimated range of 500 miles, making frequent stops for gas a thing of the past. And for those who need power and efficiency, the 2020 Ford Explorer hybrid has an impressive tow rating of 5,000 pounds.

There’s a lot to be excited about with the latest reveals from Ford automakers, and we can’t wait to welcome the 2020 Ford Explorer to our lot. While we wait, you can learn more about what’s new and exciting from an expert Ford dealer. Louisville drivers can find power, efficiency, and great prices here at O’Brien Ford of Shelbyville.
