1. 2013 Ford Explorer Review

2. If only for the sheer fun of barreling down the
road in a turbocharged V-6 SUV, the Ford
Explorer Sport brings welcome fun to the
Explorer nameplate for 2013. The new Sport
trim level adds the third and most powerful
engine to the Explorer lineup, which helps it
hustle past other three-row SUVs — even the
few that still offer V-8s. It returns respectable
EPA gas mileage and improves on lesser
Explorers' mediocre handling. The Sport does
for the Explorer what hot sauce does for wings.
Though its range of efficient engines is
unmatched among SUVs, lingering issues
diminish the 2013 Ford Explorer's appeal.

5. With top crash-test scores across the board, the
Explorer has the distinction of being a Top
Safety Pick from the Insurance Institute for
Highway Safety and having a five-out-of-fivestars rating from the National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration. The latter designation has
become rarer ever since NHTSA upgraded its
testing procedures a few years ago. Seven
standard airbags include a new front-passenger
knee airbag for 2013 plus the federally
requiredantilock brakes and electronic stability
system. A blind spot warning system, forward
collision warning and Ford's inflatable secondrow seat belts are optional.

8. Have the Explorer's issues really dampened its
appeal? Perhaps not so much. Through
October, Explorer sales have trounced the
competition. Sales are up 21 percent despite the
current-generation Explorer having been around
since late 2010. The new, screaming Sport
should only add to Ford's lead. By all means,
shop the Explorer and open up the Sport on an
empty road if you can. But mind the shortfalls
and take a hard look at the competition, too.
