“A gas-powered, twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 connects up to a 10-speed automatic transmission to send 400 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque to an optional all-wheel-drive system. Rear-drive is standard. For more performance, the Aviator goes reaches for the electrical socket, offering a plug-in hybrid powertrain with a twin-turbocharged engine in the Grand Touring model that nets 450 hp and 600 lb-ft of torque.”

With the ubiquity of getting really good power out of small turbo engines, I wonder what the long term reliability of these cars is going to be like.

Something as complicated as this, I sure won’t be keeping it for a long time. Ideal strategy is to buy CPO lightly used and sell it off before the problems start arising with higher mileage, 100K+ .

I would assume that these are going to become problematic over 100k miles, but then maybe technology is to the point where they’ll be fine.

So an explorer sized Crossover with the power of an old 6.0 diesel Excursion.
Sounds good to me.

It does look good, I will see how it goes and maybe pick one up in a couple years off a lease. I just finished doing Toyota at the SF auto show and the new RAV looks ok too, I had three to look at. I never buy a brand new car.
