CarGurus Analysis: 2016 Ford Explorer
overall

Summary
With 155 currently listed for sale near San Francisco, CA and an average price of $14,783.00, 20.6% 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.

The 2016 Ford Explorer introduces a refreshed design, an updated engine option, and the new luxurious Platinum trim level, enhancing comfort and performance for a better driving experience.
Why it stands out
The 2016 Ford Explorer is well-regarded for its spacious and comfortable interior, making it a popular choice for families. With a variety of engine options, including a powerful twin-turbocharged V6, the Explorer offers strong performance, particularly in the sport-oriented trims. Although it boasts a smooth ride and an array of features, including advanced safety systems and a user-friendly infotainment setup, some critics point to its less-than-ideal fuel efficiency and minor reliability concerns. Accolades for the Explorer's styling and interior quality highlight it as a versatile option for both everyday driving and long road trips, but potential buyers should weigh these strengths against the known issues regarding its performance in safety tests.

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!
