Seamless technology, expedition-ready performance, and family-friendly conveniences make the 2025 Ford Explorer a popular choice. Read our highlights to learn more about the full-size SUV.
1. The Reliable Performance
A 10-speed automatic transmission is paired with a strong 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine for the Explorer. This 300-horsepower setup does an impressive job of providing reliable performance. Rear-wheel drive is standard. Some trims have the option to upgrade to intelligent 4WD for enhanced traction. Drivers looking for athletic handling will want to check out the ST trim with its upgraded 3.0-liter EcoBoost engine, sport-tuned suspension, and paddle shifters.
2. The Selectable Driving Modes
The Explorer comes standard with a six-mode terrain management system. Off-road mode improves balance when you head off the beaten path, while slippery mode enhances traction on days with poor weather. The system also comes with sport mode for athletic handling, tow/haul for when you’ve hooked up a trailer, eco mode for improved fuel economy, and normal mode for your commute.
3. The Strong Towing Power
Every trim comes standard with a Class III Trailer Tow Package. This equipment affords the Explorer an impressive 5,000 pounds of maximum towing capacity.
4. The Family-Friendly Seating
The Explorer’s spacious cabin is one of the biggest reasons families fall in love with this seven-passenger vehicle. Amenities like the tri-zone automatic temperature control and dome lights in all three rows help the entire family feel comfortable. The front row features heated seats perfect for chilly days. The driver has a comfortable 10-way seat adjuster, steering-wheel-mounted controls for the sound system and cruise controls, and a 12.3-inch color display for tracking vehicle information.
Captain’s seats with E-Z entry armrests make a comfortable place for two passengers in the second row. Three passengers will find their seats on the third-row bench seat. The 50/50 split-folding bench seat is easy to fold flat when your family needs additional cargo space.
5. The Rich Driver Assistance Technology
A robust lane-keeping system comes standard. It includes lane-keeping alert, which will help you stay aware when leaving your lane. It also has driver alert and lane-keeping assist, which will steer you back into your original lane to avoid a side collision from unintentional drifting.
Ford BlueCruise is available. The hands-free highway driving assistance technology allows drivers to relax behind the wheel while driving on 97% of the highways within the United States and Canada. It comes with features like in-lane repositioning and lane change assist while driving in designated Blue Zones, allowing you to avoid stress on your commute and travel farther without fatigue on long road trips.
