5 Reasons Drivers Love the 2022 Ford Explorer

The 2025 Ford Explorer is a family-friendly SUV with plenty of technology to keep your passengers entertained and excellent fuel economy and performance. We're going to dive in and look at some of its many highlights. Powerful, Economical Engines The standard engine is a 2.3L Turbocharged Direct-Injection Ti-VCT EcoBoost I-4. It produces 300 hp and 310 lb-ft of torque, and is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. Depending on your trim, the 3.0L EcoBoost V6 with Auto Start-Stop Technology is available, providing 400 hp and 415 lb-ft of torque. It's also paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission as standard, but you can opt for the 10-speed shiftable automatic transmission, which includes manual shift paddles. EcoBoost engines are well-known for their enhanced performance and improved fuel efficiency despite being smaller than regular engines. This is made possible by three technologies: turbocharging, direct-fuel injection, and variable camshaft timing. These technologies increase airflow to the engine for faster and more powerful burning, as well as more precise combustion and valve intake and exhaust operation. more Interior Comfort The Explorer features comfortable seating for six people if you choose second-row captain's chairs or up to seven if you prefer the 35/30/35 split fold-flat bench seat. The front seats are heated, with the driver's seat offering 10-way power adjustment and the front passenger's seat providing 4-way power adjustment. All seats are covered with unique cloth upholstery, but you can upgrade to even softer, luxurious ActiveX material. As the driver, all the essential information you need is displayed on a 12.3" color LCD digital information cluster. Infotainment is controlled via a 13.2" crystal-clear center-stack touchscreen. It's powered by Ford Digital Experience, which gives you access to Google and Amazon apps. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are installed. A complimentary three-month SiriusXM with 360L is included with every Explorer. Cargo Capacity and Trailering As an SUV, good cargo capacity is essential, and the Explorer doesn't disappoint. It has 20.8 cubic feet of space in the trunk, roughly equivalent to six to eight suitcases. If you fold down the third seat row, this increases to 49.8 cubic feet. If you need to carry bigger or more bulky items, folding down the second seat row will give you 84.1 cubic feet of space. The Explorer comes standard with the Ford Class III Trailer Tow Package. This package includes an engine oil cooler, a 4- and 7-pin trailer wiring harness, and a trailer hitch receiver. It also adds a Tow/Haul Mode and additional safety features. These features allow you to easily tow up to 5,000 pounds. There's so much more for you to discover in the 2025 Explorer.
