Current Generation: 2007–Present
Despite slow sales, a new Sport Trac was added to the Explorer line in early 2006 for the 2007 model year. Unlike its predecessor, sold through 2005, it features the 4.6 L V8 engine as an option, and is based on the new, larger fourth-generation Explorer platform. The new Sport Trac's greatest improvements are an all-new reinforced frame and four-wheel independent suspension. AdvanceTrac with Roll Stability Control is standard in the Sport Trac.

A special version called the Sport Trac Adrenalin is planned for the 2008 model year with prices starting at $30,495.

First Generation/Origins 2001–2005
2001 saw the introduction of the Explorer Sport Trac, which put a small pickup bed behind the four normal SUV doors. The 2-door Explorer Sport also received the Sport Trac's more-rugged nose. The 4.0 L Cologne V6 was the only engine option. This generation Sport Trac remained in production through June 2005, with no 2006 model year vehicles produced.
