At Lester Glenn Ford, we are committed to keeping you updated on the latest Ford brand news. If you’re a Ford Explorer enthusiast, we have noteworthy news on upcoming 2024 model availability. The popular Ford Explorer Hybrid model is no longer available to the public but is still part of the lineup. If that sounds confusing, let’s clear things up.
Why No Ford Explorer Hybrid?
The decision not to offer the 2024 Ford Explorer Hybrid is because demand is higher among police forces across the nation than it’s been among civilian drivers. The Ford Explorer Police Interceptor Utility Hybrid model, with its 318 horsepower, 322 lb-ft of torque, and battery support, has become a favorite among law enforcement agencies. The overwhelming demand has led Ford to focus its hybrid production exclusively on the police model.
This does not mean Ford is backtracking on its commitment to fuel efficiency and environment-friendly technologies. Instead, it’s a privileged change to meet specific market demands that, in turn, will allow the company to shift its focus to other ways to meet these critical concerns.
The 2024 Ford Explorer: A New Chapter
Though the hybrid model will not be available, the 2024 Ford Explorer still promises to be an exciting option for SUV lovers, with:
- Seating for up to seven passengers.
- Twin-Panel Moonroof & Terrain Management System™.
- A rear-wheel-drive platform is standard, with all-wheel drive available.
- Towing capability up to 5,600 lbs.
The 2024 Ford Explorer with EcoBoost® technology will continue to deliver the versatility, power, and technology the brand is known for.
