I'm sure Ford will stick an eco boost engine in the European model which will be an all new Explorer for 2020.
It continues the rise in popularity of the SUV.
Will no doubt if it sells be the demise of the Mondeo.

Really? I tried the Tiguan 1.5tsi, as due to their inability to factor in the WTLP legislation, tgec190 bhx wasn’t available.
I found it very underpowered and the seats the most uncomfortable since the Mercedes E Clas sears.
This was their massage seats and they were ever so hard compared to ny Volvo sears

But when it needed spare parts it was a pain in the backside , we sold it after it was off the road for 5 weeks waiting for a part to come for it .
Good point.

It should cost roughly in £ s what it costs in $ s if we are not been ripped off, given there is 20% VAT and 10% import duties. But it may be a bit more as you also have shipping (£1000) which will be a bit more expensive than they pay in USA.

i have a 2.0l Tdi BMT 150 SEL model so maybe a bit more powerful? it took me a while with the seats but i have them where i want them now! I really love it, i have it on a lease and i had to wait 5 months for it but it's worth it. Very economical on my commute.
