Explorer 2011

Strong and Lightweight Structure
Thanks to advanced high-tech materials and assembly processes, the structure in the 2011 Explorer is both lightweight and strong. For starters, the A- and B-Pillars are constructed of high-strength boron steel for greatly increased roof crush strength. The front-end support structure features first-in-class technology, constructed using a lightweight composite (40 percent glass-filled polypropylene with a glass-mat overlay), which matches the lateral stiffness of magnesium while reducing weight.
