Its features are more swooping and aerodynamically pleasing than the 2019 model. Where the 2019 Explorer was boxy and rectangular, the 2020 Explorer is slick and streamlined — more of what we expect from a new generation that we'll live with for the next few years into the future. More Power The 2020 Ford Explorer has even more power, especially when it comes to towing. The 30 extra pound-feet of torque it has on the 2019 model lets it tow 600 more pounds for a total of a 5,600-pound towing capacity.

The center dashboard has a less busy design compared to the 2019 Explorer, and makes room for the available tablet-sized 12.3-inch touch-screen display. If you don't need a laptop in your SUV, the standard 8-inch screen is more muted but still useful. The traditional shifter has been replaced with a space-saving rotary selector. The dashboard has less of those buttons you never use and leaves the ones you do. In short, the 2020 Explorer has a more aesthetically modern, minimalist design that lends more to the cabin's ambience. One of the major selling points of the Explorer is the great amount of passenger and cargo space it has. The 2020 model still seats seven people in three comfortable rows. The third row can be folded down to create up to an impressive 87.8 cubic feet of cargo space. Evidently, the Explorer is ready for anything that you and your family throw at it. Safer The 2020 Ford Explorer has more safety features that keep you and your family even more secure than before. It has been equipped with even more driver-assist technologies such as automatic high-beam headlamps, a lane-keeping system, automatic emergency braking, and more.
