CarGurus Analysis: 2016 Ford Explorer
overall
Summary
With 4,241 currently listed for sale and an average price of $12,634.00, 33.3% of 2016 Ford Explorers for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2016 Ford Explorer 4.26 / 5 stars.
63.3% of 2016 Explorer models on CarGurus are accident free.
The 2016 Ford Explorer offers a spacious interior, a smooth ride, and strong performance, particularly with the Sport model's handling and power.
Why it stands out
The 2016 Ford Explorer distinguishes itself with its robust engineering and commendable performance, especially in the Sport trim that features a powerful twin-turbo V6 engine producing 365 horsepower. Recent styling updates such as a more angular silhouette and upgraded amenities enhance its appeal, making it a solid choice for families seeking comfort and space. The interior, while spacious and quiet, combines luxury qualities with practical design, particularly notable in upper trim levels where features like heated and ventilated seats are offered. Despite some concerns regarding fuel efficiency—with the Sport model struggling to achieve its EPA ratings—buyers will appreciate the flexible cargo configurations and optional advanced driver assistance technologies. However, the Explorer’s crash safety ratings have been a point of contention, as the vehicle has retained a Marginal score in small overlap tests, highlighting an area for potential improvement.

Extreme scratches all over vehicle. Driver seat motor seemed to be going out, and the seat turned and slanted when you moved it forward/aft (so you were not even sitting straight when you moved it back a few inches.

Nice ride. I find it a little big and will need to get used to it after driving compact vehicles. Having said that, the explorer is well laid out and comfortable to drive. Im impressed with the exceleration and handling for a larger vehicle. This sport edition is very well equipped and checks all the boxes for features you could possibly want. Overall Im very impressed with it.

Very satisfied! Excellent smooth ride. Very roomy! I had a Chevrolet Tahoe before and so far the Ford Explorer trumps the Tahoe! Love it!

I love this car! Plenty of room and it’s not a tight squeeze at all when all 3 rows are occupied. I’m 6’4” and my head actually didn’t touch the roof in the 3rd row! The Sport model has a ton of power for towing or for zipping around traffic. I’m really impressed with this model if the Explorer, it’s exceeded my expectations!
