2025 Ford Explorer

Providing a sporty and versatile driving experience, the 2025 Ford Explorer lives up to its name by offering strong performance, available four-wheel drive, and innovative tech features that can turn every drive into an adventure.

Strong Performance

This SUV is ready to conquer tough terrains and challenging driving conditions with its available Intelligent 4WD system, included Selectable Drive Modes feature, and two engine offerings. The first engine is a turbocharged 300-horsepower 2.3-liter I-4 that comes standard in all trims except the sporty ST trim, which has a 400-horsepower 3.0-liter V6, also turbocharged. Both engines pair with a 10-speed automatic transmission, and you can tow up to 5,000 pounds with the included Trailer Tow Package.

Upscale Comforts

Ready for large families, this edition’s cabin has three rows of seating and room for up to seven passengers, with tri-zone climate control, second-row captain’s seats, and a third-row split-folding bench seat all coming standard. The seats come in a variety of upscale materials, like unique cloth and leather with tri-diamond micro-perforated inserts and accent stitching, and while heated front-row seats are standard in lower trims, select upper trims also have heated rear seats and a ventilation function up front.

Designed to Explore

The vehicle’s exterior was designed for adventures, as it comes with roof-rack side rails for cargo boxes, bicycle racks, and other accessories, and heated power side mirrors. On select trims you can get LED fog lamps, rain-sensitive wipers, and both front and rear skid plate elements. A power liftgate comes standard with privacy glass that extends to the second row, and every model has a body-color spoiler that adds a sporty appearance to the vehicle. 

Advanced Technology

You’ll also find innovative technology integrated throughout the cabin, with the standard Ford Digital Experience providing entertainment options and other functions on a full-color touchscreen display. All models have 4-Door Intelligent Access with Push-Button Start for convenience, as well as a 12.3-inch instrument cluster and a 5G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot that supports up to 10 devices when opting for a data plan. Some upper trims also have a wireless charging pad and a universal garage door opener.

Smart Driver Assistance

Taking driver assistance to the next level, this edition has Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go for highway cruising, the Rear View Camera with Backup Assist Grid Lines, and Pre-Collision Assist with both Automatic Emergency Braking and Pedestrian Detection to help prevent frontal collisions. Also included are many systems to help you avoid side-collisions, like BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) with Cross-Traffic Alert and Lane-Keeping System, as well as rear parking sensors, while a 360-degree camera system comes with select trims.
