Ford ExploreWhen you need to escape from traffic, leave the pavement, and carve a path through rugged terrains, no other SUV is more appropriate for the job than the legendary Ford Explorer. The 2022 edition comes with an impressive array of powerful performance options, including a 400-horsepower V6 engine, as well as advanced technology adorned throughout its luxurious interior. Among its many exceptional features, here are six standouts that help separate the 2022 Ford Explorer from other SUVs.

 

1. Surface-Sensing 4WD

The available Intelligent 4WD System takes cues from the vehicle and your actions to know when the four-wheel-drive should automatically be engaged. The vehicle’s wheel speed, steering wheel angle, and the position of the accelerator pedal can all help the system decide when more torque is needed for different terrains.

2. Dynamic Terrain Modes

While the vehicle’s available four-wheel-drive system adjusts to different surfaces automatically, it’s complemented by a terrain management system that gives you full control over its multiple driving modes. With the push of a button, you can bring the vehicle out of normal mode while choosing whether the vehicle should be saving fuel in Eco mode, optimized for agility in Sport, ready for rain with Slippery, or with traction optimized to tackle snow or sand.

3. A Co-Pilot for Parking

With the Reverse Brake Assist option combined with the standard Rearview Camera feature, reversing into parking spaces is easier than ever before. While the rearview camera sends a digital image to the display screen within the vehicle, you’ll also receive alert warnings from the brake assist system in case you don’t see something or have the camera turned off.

4. Puncture-Aversive Tires

Opting for the Michelin self-sealing tires can help prevent random tire punctures from ruining your day. When a nail or other object punctures one of these durable tires, a sealant is automatically dispersed to the location where the air leak has occurred. This can reduce roadside stops so you can continue your journey safely until you’re able to have it properly inspected by a technician.

5. 12-Speaker Audio System

If music is your passion, the B&O luxury sound system, with its 12 dynamic speakers, will blow you away. Standard for the Limited, ST, and Platinum trims, this audio system is designed to reduce sound distortion, so even songs you’ve been familiar with your whole life will sound as if they’ve been remastered with greater clarity.

6. Power Massaging Seats

What’s better than power-operated seats that you can freely move around for more legroom? How about multi-contour seats with Active Motion in the front row that provide back massages for both your upper and lower back? In addition to giving back massages, these relaxing seats also include a seat cushion massage function, which can help to improve blood circulation to your legs while on long trips.

The 2022 Explorer’s adaptive nature when tackling different terrains is reflected throughout its performance and driver-assist features, while its tech options and safety monitoring systems are all years ahead of the competition’s.
