Explorer and Pathfinder....I find it interesting how they both have evolved throughout the years... Unibody, BOF, FWD, RWD, its like Pathfinder follows what Ford tries to do, yet never is loyal to it's initial birth or even Explorer....Like, "What the flavor for the next generation, and let's just slap a name to whatever platform we feel the masses will like.  But hey, it sells well... so it's not the platform or what drives it, maybe it's just the name and marketing... 🤨

Big climb for many. ICE Nautilus would likely be used for road trips much more than a BEV and Nautilus is a great road car.

Better that it was removed than you being accused or fired for something you didn’t do. 

If they can make EVs cost roughly the same as their ICE counterparts, I don't think that will be a big of climb as you make it out to be. 

Mine  is C17625 set for the 24th 

Nah it would have far better off road chops.   The Explorer isn't going anywhere anytime soon platform wise-not till 2032 or so I'm going with. 

It would just be a body-on-frame Aviator then. Has it been determined that there will be another generation of the CD6 Aviator? I recall there were rumors of the Explorer moving to C2.....

Agree, I don't see an EV achieving Nautilus+Corsair sales numbers

This profile gives me Ford's version of a polestar 4 vibes, which I'm not against. Maybe this is the escape EV replacement. 

Except that doesn't equate to "moving Nautilus production to the US".  And there's no way to replace Nautilus volume with an EV.  I think they'll bring back Nautilus and Corsair as hybrids only.
