CarGurus Analysis: 2022 Ford Explorer
overall

Summary
With 9,656 currently listed for sale and an average price of $28,757.00, 32.0% 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 and CarGurus experts gave it a 7.5 / 10.
86.5% of 2022 Explorer models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2022 Ford Explorer stands out as a midsize three-row SUV that was redesigned two years earlier and moved to a rear-drive platform. It also added an optional hybrid powertrain, giving buyers more than one way to configure it. Ford positioned the Explorer to cover a wide range of needs, from a value-oriented base model to a more luxurious Platinum trim level, and later expanded the lineup with ST-Line, Timberline, and King Ranch trim levels.
That broad approach is part of what makes the 2022 Explorer appealing: it aims to suit a wide cross-section of buyers while still offering plenty of cargo space and great safety ratings. Owners also tend to praise its comfort, performance, and practicality, along with the spacious interior that works well for families. The main drawbacks are worth noting, though, especially the cramped third row, outdated infotainment technology, and an unimpressive value equation.

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.
