    Wala bang JPEPA version ang US? Para makamura hehe! So kung around P2.4M ang price, then talagang double yung price dito vs in the US. Ganon ba kalaki ang tax na binabayaran or malakas lang managa ang Ford?

    2WD tapos P2.4M? Parang ang mahal. Ano ba specs? Pajero BK na lang.

    AFAIK the traverse is here already.

    The top of the line Explorer Limited on display appears to be 4WD.

    You can see the "Terrain Management System" knob on the lower part of the pic.

    The 2011 Explorer Limited 4WD costs $40,360 in the US.

    For comparison the standard length 2011 Expedition XLT 4x2 (plus the leather seat option which is standard on the local units) costs $42,075 in the US, local price is P2.99M.

    My guess is, the new Explorer Limited 4WD will be in the P2.8M+ range.

    For those who were at the private launch of the Explorer, anong SUV ang ka-size niya? Land Cruiser? Pajero?

    I wasn't at the launching but based on the specs its closer to the size of a Land Cruiser LC200... but a bit longer and lower.

    2011 Explorer
    Wheelbase 112.6 in (2,860 mm)
    Length 197.1 in (5,010 mm)
    Width 78.9 in (2,000 mm)
    Height 70.4 in (1,790 mm)

    Land Cruiser LC200
    Wheelbase 2,850 mm (112.2 in)
    Length 4,950 mm (194.9 in)
    Width 1,970 mm (77.6 in)
    Height 1,905 mm (75.0 in)

    Not sure about the Edge, but the current Kuga will be replaced soon.
    A new One Ford compact SUV based on the Vertrek concept will replaced the current Kuga and Escape.

    Its basically a Kuga Mk2.

    Actually, it's quite cheap.

    Mahal nga lang maintenance. But that's about it, though.

    Ford Group Philippines shows off new Explorer - News | TopGear.com.ph

    One of the highlights of the recent Ford sales rally--in which Ford Group Philippines raffled off a brand-new Fiesta sedan to its sales force--was the unveiling of the all-new Explorer. Covered in balloons the whole evening, the much-awaited Ford contender in the premium midsize SUV segment delighted guests when it was finally presented as the event wound down to a close.

    The display unit was a top-of-the-line Limited edition, which packs a 3.5-liter, 290hp V6 under the hood. Besides this variant, two trim levels of the 2.0-liter, 237hp, in-line-four EcoBoost version will be made available to the Philippine market by October, an FGP executive informed us. On the night of the sales convention (July 4), each Ford dealer principal was already issued a brand-new unit for pre-selling purposes.

    October looks like an exciting month for the segment in which the Explorer competes. Around this time, too, Chevrolet Philippines is expected to officially launch the all-new Traverse, while CATS Motors is said to be introducing a diesel version of the Jeep Grand Cherokee (with air suspension to boot). Decisions, decisions...

    UPDATE: FGP's communications head sent us an e-mail to correct our story. "With regard to the all-new Explorer EcoBoost variant, we previously communicated that this will not be made available this year." There you have it--the 3.5-liter V6 Explorer first and the EcoBoost to follow later (presumably next year).

    2WD din naman yung current Explorer eh. Got our Explorer 2.295M way back 2008. Ngayon 2.395M na.

    Kung 2.4xxM yung bago, sulit na yun.
