If you’ve been looking for an ideal SUV for both daily commutes and long-distance journeys with the family, look no further than the 2025 Ford Explorer, a popular three-row SUV.

Sporty Engine Performance

The 2025 Explorer comes in four different trim levels, with two different engines offered among them. The first is a 2.3-liter I-4 engine that churns out an impressive 300 horsepower thanks to an integrated turbocharger. This engine can be found in the Active, Platinum, and ST-Line trims. The second engine is a 3.0-liter V6 that delivers 400 horses and comes exclusively with the sporty ST trim. Both engines come with Auto Start/Stop technology, which helps to conserve fuel.

Versatility You Can Rely On

Also providing impressive versatility, this SUV has many optional features for off-road journeys, including an available Intelligent Four-Wheel Drive system that can detect terrain changes while adapting to them. Both a non-limited-slip rear axle and Selectable Drive Modes come standard to help provide optimized traction and performance. The latter feature allows you to switch between multiple driving modes at any time, such as Slippery, Trail, Tow/Haul, and Sport, giving you more hands-on control over the vehicle’s performance settings.

Comfy and Spacious Inside

Inside the Explorer’s spacious three-row cabin you’ll find standard tri-zone climate control, seating for up to eight passengers, and available rear-seat auxiliary controls. There are also split-folding third-row seats that come standard, as well as split-folding second-row seats in select trim levels. Plush leather, easy-to-clean ActiveX material, and unique cloth are offered as seating material options, depending on the trim, and some upper trims come with thermal settings for the first two rows of seating.

Advanced Tech Throughout

This is also the first edition to feature the all-new Ford Digital Experience, a multi-function infotainment system that comes standard with entertainment options, apps, hands-free calling, wireless smartphone connectivity, and a full-color touchscreen. Other tech highlights include a 12.3-inch instrument panel cluster behind the wheel, a 5G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot that can be accessed with a data plan, and driver-assist standouts like Pre-Collision Assist, the Rear View Camera, the Lane-Keeping System, and rear parking sensors, all standard.
