overall

Summary
With 9,615 currently listed for sale and an average price of $29,413.00, 34.9% of 2022 Ford Explorers for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2022 Ford Explorer 4.92 / 5 stars.
87.0% of 2022 Explorer models on CarGurus are accident free.
The 2022 Ford Explorer offers multiple powertrain options, a spacious interior perfect for families, and impressive safety ratings, making it a well-rounded choice in the midsize SUV segment.
Why it stands out
The 2022 Ford Explorer is distinguished by its impressive versatility and modern updates, including a dynamic array of trim levels and powertrains. Its rear-drive platform not only enhances handling but also allows for a sporty design that appeals to buyers. This SUV is available with a choice of three powertrains: a turbocharged four-cylinder that offers efficient performance, a robust twin-turbocharged V6 for those needing extra towing capacity, and an efficient hybrid option that further broadens the appeal. The interior is designed for comfort, especially for families, though the third-row seating has been noted as cramped for adults. In terms of technology and safety, the Ford Co-Pilot360 suite provides a high standard of driver-assist features, while its Top Safety Pick+ rating ensures peace of mind for buyers. However, some users have expressed a desire for more intuitive infotainment technology, as the existing system lacks modern updates. These attributes combine to create a formidable contender in the competitive SUV market, appealing to a wide range of buyers.

Reviewed a 2022 Ford Explorer on Nov 21, 2024
The heated & cooling seats are fantastic. I havent tried out all of the features yet, but I am looking forward to figuring them all out. The drive is smooth and quite. Seats are comfortable, the third row fold down easily and add so much more room for a giant Sams Club or Costco run. I feel that I got a fantastic deal for the cost and the mileage on the vehicle. I was looking at the Toyota Highlander, GMC Acadia and Jeep Cherokee, but choose the Ford Explorer for all the reasons listed above.
