With at least 350 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque, the 2013 Ford Explorer Sport (http://www.autoblog.com/2012/03/28/2013-ford-explorer-sport-brings-sho-like-performance-to-big-cuv/) is no ho-hum grocery getter. Now that we know how much the most powerful Explorer (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/explorer/) costs, we may have to start cutting coupons. Ford (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/) has priced the new Explorer Sport at $40,720 plus another $825 for destination charges. That price tag comes in at nearly $1,000 more than the similarly equipped Explorer Limited with all-wheel drive, yet it adds the EcoBoost V6 and sport-tuned suspension.

The standard Explorer Sport comes nicely equipped, but far from loaded. The Blue Oval offers a 402A package with voice-activated navigation and Travel Link, pushbutton start and remote start for $4,130. Add adaptive cruise control ($1,150), dual-panel moonroof ($1,595) and dual-DVD for the second row and you're looking at $50,415.

That's a good bit of coin for a crossover with a Ford badge, but if you've always dreamed of an Explorer with a boosted sledgehammer of a powertrain, this Sport may be your best bet.Ford configurator prices new 2013 Explorer Sport from $40,720* (http://www.autoblog.com/2012/06/08/ford-configurator-prices-new-2013-explorer-sport-from-40-720/) originally appeared on Autoblog (http://www.autoblog.com) on Fri, 08 Jun 2012 11:30:00 EST.
