The 2022 Ford Explorer features multiple powertrain options, a spacious interior, and excellent safety ratings, making it a strong contender in the midsize SUV market.
Why it stands out
The 2022 Ford Explorer continues to build on its legacy as a popular midsize SUV, offering a blend of comfort, performance, and practicality that appeals to families and adventure-seekers alike. With a redesigned rear-drive platform, the Explorer provides a more engaging driving experience compared to many competitors. The introduction of various trim levels, including the sporty ST-Line and the luxurious King Ranch, allows buyers to choose a model that best fits their lifestyle and preferences. Notably, the Explorer boasts a robust safety rating, earning a Top Safety Pick+ designation from the IIHS, and comes equipped with Ford Co-Pilot360, a suite of advanced driver-assistance features. While the third-row seating may be cramped for adults, the overall spaciousness and cargo capacity make it a practical choice for families. However, some users have noted that the infotainment system feels outdated, which could be a drawback for tech-savvy buyers.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.
