We finally get a taste of Ford's bold new electric SUV as it goes on sale in Europe
What can you learn from the wrong side of the car in 15 minutes on slow suburban roads? Well, we certainly can't verify or refute Ford's lofty claims that the Ford Explorer will be more dynamically adept than its Volkswagen Group platform-mates, although our chauffeur seemed to relish the opportunity to put it in Sport mode and throw it into some of the tighter bends on our route, if that's any indication...
It's probably best to wait until we drive it to make any categoric conclusions on these dynamic attributes, but the elements I can talk about with some degree of conviction at this stage happen to be those that Ford is keenest to show off. The interior design, for example, is a pretty radical departure from the Ford cabins to which we've become accustomed.
