(from the story)

• The Ford Explorer will add a Tremor model later this year, replacing the pre-refresh Explorer's Timberline trim.
• The new model marks the end of the Timberline name, which appeared on the Explorer and Expedition but is being replaced by Tremor models for each SUV.

“When it comes to off-roading, Ford has something for everyone. There are the beastly Raptor models—found in the F-150, Ranger, and Bronco lineups—as well as the tamer, albeit still capable, Tremor trim that even graces the little Maverick pickup….Now, Ford is teasing another addition to the Tremor lineup, releasing an image that appears to show an upcoming Explorer Tremor.

Ford didn't provide any other details about the upcoming Explorer Tremor, but we can look to the Expedition for clues of what to expect. Ford added the off-road trim to the Expedition for the 2025 model year, coinciding with a significant overhaul for the F-150-based SUV. The Expedition Tremor wears skid plates underneath to shield the transfer case and fuel tank, gains a pair of side steps, and rides on 33-inch-tall all-terrain tires wrapped around 18-inch wheels. The other changes are purely visual, with a plethora of orange trim inside and out, a restyled grille with inboard auxiliary lights, and tow hooks in the front bumper.

We expect the Ford Explorer Tremor to pack many of the same upgrades as the Timberline, which featured a slight suspension lift, retuned springs, and a Torsen limited-slip rear differential. The powertrain should remain the base turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder producing 300 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque. Ford didn't provide any specifics on when to expect the Explorer Tremor, simply stating it will debut later this year.”
