Thanks

Thanks

5:32 Boy do i know that feeling of doing that while driving. I can't take her anywhere i tell ya.

[@juergenstraub]

The center screen looks like aftermarket 😆

[@CJ-zz9ts]

Feel like breaking that useless kid screen sooo not a great fit

[@OkulSmoK]

Agreed, stupid design.

[@AxcelerateRoblox]

Some screens are better but once you have it its not that bad

[@AxcelerateRoblox]

Wait for 2024 for Cadillac Escalade like screen

[@icecubes185]

You look aftermarket

[@accelerator5524]

9:53 that was not bad actually. didnt think fords lane keeping assist is that good

[@ArthropodSpidey]

The screen looks horrendous

[@Stigz34]

Fire the person who approved that

[@theconformist2399]

It really does. They mentioned it on their POV review. The screen is a major downside of the car.

[@turkeyswissandcheddaronwho8203]

Doesn't look ugly, just looks kinda like an iPad

[@kitasmith2448]

Car looks nice

[@Adamlllllllllllljjjljljjjjj]

Wow, Looks like Ford have put some work into the handling in this beast. At 7:02, round that long corner, the car looked surprising planted with very little under steer👌👌. Partly skill from the driver I suppose too😂

[@fusionvic]

It's not bad. It also has fairly wide sticky tires, but the brakes on the high performance package are really good. Like binary good. Gently touch them and its like slamming on the brakes. The 10R60 ratios make it feel like it launches really fast. Doing a 60-80 mph WOT test feels like a bone stock SHO or Fusion Sport.

[@TonyTube407]

Love the gauges and the 10-speed automatic. I have a 2017 Sport w/ a few mods that gets me 420hp/420ft-lbs, and it seems to be about as fast as this. I do like those gauges though!!!

Love my ST, but the interior quality is so meh for $60k

but now on the used market under $40k is definitely passable

[@Jes2.fr65]

Does it have an eco boost engine

[@axolotl8227]

0:04 start up 6:45 sport

[@sullyangelo652]

A fact about the st there is no button to manually open the trunk you have to kick the bottom of the bumper my bad there is a button

[@louiszhang3050]

I can’t be the only one annoyed at the iPad stuck in the middle of the dash right…. I’ve seen people literally mount an iPad on their car like a phone and it still looks more elegant than that

[@senuauwu]

I want to learn to drive

[@fusionvic]

The fake engine noise is terrible. And what model iPad is that? (J/K) Lackluster overall design, like the design team didn't put much effort into it.

[@AxcelerateRoblox]

7:46 supercharger whine on launch???

no

I really love this car for its overall outside look but wtf is with that Tablet in the middle 🤦‍♂️ destroys the whole car …

[@bendonahue]

(ST)UV. Rest In Peace Focus ST and Fiesta ST. Maybe Ford will make an EcoSport ST next 😂🤣😅🤣😂

[@byronchavarria4954]

And Explorer ST

[@860rondo]

the screen is what's holding me back from getting one.. smh

[@reactionkida.5153]

You can get it with a smaller screen.

[@860rondo]

@@reactionkida.5153 i don’t really like the smaller screen, but is it a better option?

[@mattX5]

Do yourself a favour and just don’t buy one of these. The fit and finish is brutal, constant recalls and issues, etc. Just don’t.

[@AxcelerateRoblox]

@@860rondo no bigger screen better but I recommend waiting till 2024 they Will facelift with new screen

Удачной езды брат

[@abrahamcosworth2632]

That thing over there isn't really an Explorer anymore. The first generations (1 and 2) had limited off-road capabilities. This model cannot do the same.

[@ag6371]

Used mostly as cop cars

[@user-sv5pq9lw7n]

Дисплей как планшет.

[@yousifm.f.m.s4572]

Is it just me or not having that middle back seat is really disturbing ?

[@AxcelerateRoblox]

Park assist failed because it needs a car to be there to park

[@brq44]

you

[@brotato1921]

design is pretty boring tbh. Lots of wasted space from the rear, could've added some lines or done something different with the lights. Looks generic

[@timothybracken1728]

That android tablet is so tacky

Could sound better for an ST.

No not really

[@zoomzoom3839]

@@AxcelerateRobloxit could though, it should have a more aggressive exhaust note, and could definitely use less of that fake engine noise, the Bronco Raptor has this same engine and there’s no fake engine noise, it’s all from the exhaust, it actually sounds like a twin turbo V6, this fake engine noise in this explorer sounds nothing like it actually does.

Ain’t no way he’s buying all these cars

😂😂😂 he doesn’t buy them he rent them to test drive them and he gave it back to them when he’s done ✅

[@Teddingtin]

No shit.

[@theconformist2399]

Obviously not. Automakers have a press fleet that is offered to reviewers. All automotive reviewers take advantage of this. They don't actually buy any of the cars they drive/review.
