What year was the first Ford Explorer Sport?

I was thinking about getting a Ford Explorer, but I don’t have a ton of money to spend. That made me think that the original year of the Explorer might be the best option, but I want to get the Sport trim. What year did the first Ford Explorer Sport come out?

If you can find a reliable used car and you’re willing to buy an almost-vintage one, the
Ford Explorer Sport
just might fit the bill! The first Ford Explorer Sport came out in 1991 as one of four trims, including the XL, XLT, and Eddie Bauer Edition.
Unlike modern iterations of the Ford Explorer, the 1991 Explorer Sport is available in both two-door and four-door options, allowing you to choose the one to fit your needs. Other features include:
  • Two-tone paint
  • Leather interior
  • A leather-wrapped steering wheel
  • A 155-hp, 4.0-liter V6 engine
If you want to buy a 1991 Ford Explorer Sport, make sure to get it checked out by a mechanic to ensure its durability and dependability. And to get the best rate on your car insurance, use the
