2012 Ford Explorer

As the drive for higher standards for fuel economy gains momentum, Ford announced that its 2012 Explorer equipped with a turbocharged four-cylinder engine is EPA of 20 mpg city, 28 mpg on the highway and not to overshadow its main competitors. In fact, these figures are closer to what is found with the small SUV like the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4.



There is a big concession: The EcoBoost Explorer is only available in FWD. There will be no four-wheel drive option.

As a direct comparison, the current Explorer V6 front-wheel drive is rated at 17 mpg city, 25 mpg highway. In our test drive a V6 Explorer four-wheel, we have 18 mpg overall to 12 mpg city and 26 mpg on the highway. Obviously, results vary depending on driving conditions and style.

Ford was the significant increase in fuel economy of the adequacy of its popular browser again, with a 2.0-liter engine. The combination of turbocharging and direct injection allows the engine to produce low cylinder 240 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque, while being stingy with fuel.

This strategy engine, which is known by the EcoBoost brand, is applied in almost all parts of the line Ford. By 2013, the automaker estimates EcoBoost engines provide 90 percent of its models.

2012 Ford Fiesta

2012 Ford Fiesta small car really is not beneficial, but when you take into account, Fiesta, stylish looks and a surprisingly robust list of features, is one of the best ways to fall without feeling as you move downscale, ie.



Last year, Ford has made a version of its successful European festival in the U.S. market, and we believe this model is on target, taking into account how Americans are increasingly willing to enter small efficient vehicles without sacrificing the features and amenities.

In some ways, what you see is what you get with the Fiesta. This little Ford elegant and a bit of democracy, with an urban runabout, which had been absent from the Ford range in the United States. In the following runs Fiesta as beautiful as it looks with impressive control and handling and agility, agile feel it is better than most soft, numb defines its size. On the other hand, with 120 hp and 1.6 liter to about 2.600 pounds Fiesta is reactive, but not fast.

Despite the high level of internal moves first glance, the first date of the test with flying colors, try to pack a few friend Fiesta, and you should be aware of some of the typical small car sacrifices. Her slim body and a tight back seat to cut its usefulness long road trips, but we want to increase the versatility of the hatchback models. We are also not so enthusiastic about the tools available to the Fiesta panel, which clusters of audio controls as part of a series of odd diagonal buttons.

Return to the starting point, Ford held the line on pricing for 2012, based on Fiesta S starts at just $ 13 995 and includes a decent set of audio with auxiliary input, a folding rear seats, heating vents again , A / C, power locks, tilt steering wheel / telescopic - none of them are taken for granted in this vehicle class. The degree of security was impressive, and the knee airbag for the driver even included in all versions. A fully loaded top back of the line SES and could reach about $ 23k, but have a small car with leather seats, high-quality audio, voice control and Bluetooth USB synchronization interface, and an interior that is a trace of econobox.

But this raises a question: at this price, why not have some 'broader, more attention, or a basic (but is considered the highest level), the Mini Cooper? The answer is to force that Ford is almost - but not quite - this bag clean cars and very small door sedan. Keep it simple and inexpensive, and does a lot of (very elegant) way.

2012 Ford Explorer

The Ford Explorer has always been a good selling large SUV in the market, however, for the 2012 version of the browser, most people will find it's better than a lot of competition in the market. And the reason is that Ford has a lot to this that will appeal to SUV buyers. The first offering is the fact that the person can choose to get the turbo four-cylinder option, which is something most people have a taste for it not only offers great fuel economy, but a great performance as well. The person who receives the option of six-cylinder option to choose from, so that is always there for those who do not want a four-cylinder.



One of the things that most people talk about the fact that the interior is very elegant. You will notice that the materials used to manufacture the interior is something that simply are not used with the Explorer, and is one of those things that appeal to most people. You'll notice that this will make Explorer even more attractive to those who may be in the market for a large SUV with style and luxury. However, that said, most people are somewhat put off by the cargo space and the fourth of the seats in the third is in Explorer, simply because other competitors offer more room than the Explorer. Although most people are willing to look over this little detail.



Another factor that people consider the new version is the fact that many of the advances in the interior, as high-tech offerings that are not something that is not out of the competition. However, having said that, MyFord Touch, which is installed on these vehicles is something that can give people some headaches, because it has some problems of development that have not yet understood.

So how to drive? Most people give for 2012 resources to run it two thumbs up. They are the fact that it is large and well-managed response. He laughs, and sport utility vehicle is something that most people are very impressed as it will take knocks and weaving on the road without the driver or passengers feel at all. However, a person must know that may take some time to get used to the person driving this car because it is a bit 'bigger than what most people are accustomed to, but this seems to be the only complaint that people are having with the guide of this vehicle. So it's 2012 Explorer, something that people should try? Surely they will find that this is a step-up Ford and is one of the best SUV that is a bigger market.

2011 Ford F-150



Overview
Recently redesigned in 2009, the F-150 gets a major upgrade for 2011 is raised to provide greater power and fuel efficiency. The old 4.6-liter and 5.4 liter V-8 engines are stopped, replaced by three new engines, including a 3.7-liter V-6, 5.0 liter V-8 and 3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6. First last year 6.2-liter V-8, available only to the Raptor, is now available for high-end F-150 models like the Harley-Davidson, King Ranch and Platinum models.

In the two years since the redesigned F-150 went on sale, half-ton pickup has won numerous awards, including Best PickupTrucks.com complete light collection. The F-150 offers the best in your class notes for the trailer (11,300 pounds) and payload (3030 pounds). There are three cab styles: regular, extended and crew cab.

Exterior
Ford has made minor changes to the exterior for 2011. Each level F-150 grille fits their own treatment, from a. Simple base XL trim and grille with mesh inserts for the highest trim levels of the grid pad called platinum satin chrome, and repeated in a metal panel on the tailgate. Platinum is also chrome mirrors and 20-inch rims aluminum 16 branches. The rest of the range offers 16 options of the wheel from 17 inches to 22 inches in diameter.

Some of the unique features offered alternatives to the box load. Divided into Super Duty, a step to pull out of the open door and hinges to facilitate climbing on the bed. Post tailgate swings and locks to form a handle to help reinforce the bed. Another option inherited from Ford trucks continued to read. Again, a flat U-shaped extenders bed rest or on the tailgate open, or upside down on the bed on the floor - and they are always there - the F-150 U-shape in the center comes off, when both sides of the bed to stow against the wall and release the load on the floor in full use.

Another option is that of Sivuaskel pop rocker panel in front of the rear wheel through the kick button. It allows you to reach more than half the cargo box. This facilitates access to Ford C-channel rails, which allow you to position the cleats down the road at any length drawer. They are planning a spring pin, as GM uses, so that they can be placed again in a few seconds without twisting. Other features that take advantage of these tracks are heavy elements, beams, and the Ford-branded tool box that hangs on the inner wall of the box. Exterior features include:

- Capless fuel-filler system
- Available dealer-applied vinyl wraps to customize the F-150
- Available reverse-sensing and backup camera
- Available running boards or tubular side steps
- Available telescoping tow mirror
- Available two-tone paint on some models

Interior
The F-150 receives a number of new features inside that made its debut in the 2011 F-Series Super Duty, including a revised instrument panel with the best in its class with a trip computer and information system truck wheels Optional telescopic steering that improves driver comfort.

The interior includes buttons extended controls and less intrusive door panels with map pockets in SuperCab and SuperCrew large. There is a large lockable center storage console to accommodate laptops with added back compatible with hanging files.




F-150 seats use high quality materials and are available with power adjustments including lumbar support, heating and cooling.

Cabin noise is drastically reduced, Ford said, and the Platinum trim level boasts of additional noise attenuation.

SuperCrew cab has a rear seat that rivals inside the Toyota Tundra Crew Max. The rear seat opens to reveal a flat floor and 57.6 cubic feet of cargo volume, according to Ford. The space is 47.9 inches tall from floor to ceiling.

Despite an arguably successful luxury division microphones in Lincoln, Ford decided to test the idea of ​​the parent brand of platinum, which includes leather seats with stitching and embroidered logos provided. MP3 and USB jack for standard stereo, and power retractable running boards seen on the expedition are now optional here, too.

The four-door Crew Cab F-150 Harley-Davidson, captain seats, heated front and rear benches inspired by leather jackets motorcycle Harley-Davidson.

F-150 Raptor SVT configuration adds a new cabin with room for rear passengers extra. The Raptor has unique fabric and leather seats and a leather steering wheel with a sharp center to help the driver quickly redirect to the center line while driving at high speed off-road.

The optional navigation system uses an 8-inch touch screen that displays real-time traffic and gas prices in the nearby station, when the team Sirius Travel Link service Sirius Satellite Radio.

Under the Hood

Ford is replacing its legacy two-valve and three-valve 4.6-liter V-8 twins and the venerable three-valve 5.4-liter V-8 in the F-150 with technically advanced six- and eight-cylinder engines that Ford says will be the most fuel efficient in the industry. Ford is also shifting exclusively to six-speed automatic transmissions for every powertrain.

Ford's all-new Duratec 3.7-liter V-6 is the new base engine for the F-150. It's rated at 300 horsepower and 275 pounds-feet of torque on regular unleaded fuel, though it will also burn E85 ethanol. Ford Ranger buyers are a potential target for the 3.7-liter V-6, when production of Ford's compact pickup ends in 2011. With all of this power, maximum trailer towing with the 3.7-liter V-6 is up to 6,100 pounds. The 3.7-liter V-6 will be available for all cab configurations, up to a two-wheel-drive SuperCrew — the only V-6 full-size pickup with a crew cab.

As originally announced in 2009, the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6 will be the first application of Ford's gasoline direct-injection twin-turbo technology in a half-ton pickup. It's Ford's effort to shrink engine displacement for improved fuel economy while delivering tons of low-end power. The twin-turbo setup should also prove ideal for towing at altitude, where a naturally aspirated engine can have difficulty feeding air to its cylinders. It will be rated to tow up to 11,300 pounds. In the engine lineup, the 3.5-liter EcoBoost and 6.2-liter V-8 will occupy the top two slots. Ford hasn't said how much it will cost. It may carry a premium over the 6.2. The EcoBoost V-6 won't be available in the F-150 until the first quarter of 2011.

The new 5.0-liter "Coyote" V-8 is rated at 360 hp (at 5,500 rpm) and 380 pounds-feet of torque (at 4,250 rpm). It's positioned as the midrange, high-volume engine choice for the F-150, below the 3.5-liter V-6 and conventional large-displacement 6.2-liter V-8. Although the 5.0 produces more power than the outgoing 5.4-liter V-8, it won't carry as high a tow rating. Its maximum will be only 9,800 pounds trailering, instead of 11,300 pounds. Peak torque has also moved up the rpm band, from a low 3,500 rpm in the 5.4-liter V-8.

The single-overhead-cam 6.2-liter V-8 that debuted in the 2010 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is rated at a brawny 411 hp and 434 pounds-feet of torque. Mechanical features include:

- 3.7-liter V-6 four-valve rated at 300 hp and 275 pounds-feet of torque
- 5.0-liter V-8 four-valve rated at 360 hp and 380 pounds-feet of torque
- 3.5-liter V-6 four-valve EcoBoost
- 6.2-liter V-8 two-valve rated at 411 hp and 434 pounds-feet of torque

Other safety features include:
- Head restraints
