"The salesman explained to us about the new product."


Is the sentence grammatical?
 
Whilst I don't actually disagree with bhaisahab here, I generally find "to explain" in conjunction with "about" quite clunky.

I would prefer "The salesman explained the product to us", "The salesman explained how the product works to us" or "The salesman explained to us how the product works".
