But all of those are not on the list for the everyday commuter. That&#8217;s about to change as reports suggest a Ford Explorer ST is in the works.<\/p>\n<p>Ford, who is\u00a0no stranger to sporty variants will reportedly drop a 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 borrowed from the Lincoln Contintial and MKZ. In these two models, the motor pumps out 400 horsepower\u00a0and 542\u00a0Nm of torque, but once it nestles into the Ford Explorer, it&#8217;s said to receive a slight boost.<\/p>\n<h3>Is there anything else for the Ford Explorer ST?<\/h3>\n<p>Looking at other ST models Ford currently pieces together; we can also expect the enhanced SUV to proudly show off an aggressive\u00a0body kit, enlarged rims and a few sporty interior changes too. We wouldn&#8217;t be surprised to find upgraded suspension, steering and brakes on the model either with a few other tweaks here and there.<\/p>\n<p>It looks like we can look forward\u00a0to the Expo 2020 in two years time and the launch of the potent Ford Explorer ST.<\/p>\n<p>It is suggested the model will hit the assembly\u00a0line early 2019 and will roll out towards the end of 2019 as a 2020 model.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s next for the ST lineup? Eco-Sport perhaps? Maybe the Escape is a more viable option.<\/p>\n<p>Dubicars.com has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/dubai\/used\/ford\/explorer\">used Ford Explorer for sale in Dubai<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/sharjah\/used\/ford\/explorer\">Sharjah<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/abu-dhabi\/used\/ford\/explorer\">Abu Dhabi<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/ajman\/used\/ford\/explorer\">Ajman<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><em>Note: Ford Explorer ST not shown.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Performance-derived\u00a0SUV&#8217;s seem to be a &#8216;thing&#8217; nowadays; Range Rover has the SVR, Lamborghini\u00a0is\u00a0building their second one, Lotus is\u00a0said to be building one and Ferrari can&#8217;t make up their mind if they want to or not.
