Explorer Standard Range RWD (MY24-25)

The Ford Explorer Standard Range RWD (MY24-25) is a 5-seat SUV with rear-wheel drive, sold new from 2024 to 2026, when it cost £39,875 in the UK, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 8.7 seconds, slower than 79% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 190 miles (305 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 19% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 213th of 242 SUVs.

It uses around 3.7 mi/kWh (170 Wh/km), more efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 52 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 85 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 210 miles (338 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L). The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.

Second-hand, a 2024 example is estimated at £18,900–£21,300 and a 2026 one at £22,700–£25,900, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2024 car should still manage about 182 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
