“With the addition of a number of new competitive offerings, the sport utility truck segment is red hot, and it’s time for the original to raise the bar again for everyone else to try to follow,” said Chris Feuell, Ford Motor Company SUV group marketing manager. “This concept magnifies all of the aspects of Sport Trac that customers already love and introduces some street- savvy cues.”
The Explorer Sport Trac is the first sport utility vehicle with the versatility of four full doors, a roomy feature-filled interior and a pickup truck’s cargo box. Today’s Explorer Sport Trac is the only vehicle in its segment to offer a durable color-coordinated cargo box and an available swing-over tubular bed extender that dramatically increases its capability to haul oversized cargo. The Explorer Sport Trac concept’s interior is larger and the cargo bed is about 30 percent bigger than today’s model for increased cargo capacity.

In any category of car there’s always those obvious top-name picks that everybody seems to gravitate toward. Maybe it’s me-too-ism, or maybe it’s just people’s faith in certain apparently “sure-thing” brands. Whatever the underlying reasons for this phenomenon, in the world of luxury cars, the big names are evergreens BMW and Mercedes, along with more recent fave Lexus.
And then there’s Infiniti. Introduced at approximately the same time as Lexus, the nameplate hasn’t made nearly the impression that its biggest rival Japanese luxury brand has. And that’s a shame. This upscale Nissan division has offered its share of sophisticated machinery to rival Lexus and other luxury marques.
