Looks like it is the Lincoln Aviator grand touring hybrid drivetrain but Ford Explorer. They are fun but heavy AF.

They’re hybrid and all that extra weight pretty much cancels out the extra HP.

I wonder what type of torque numbers it is putting up. Is it 600+ like the aviator?

@Lightning Struck is it the 10R80 in the hybrid? I thought the entire explorer line up got the 10R60? Or is it some other trans since it is a hybrid?

The aviator is 600+ tq. I test drove one and it was nice. You do get a bit more low end grunt but the weight really cancels it out and it is def not 20k+ nicer.
