Why it stands out

The 2025 Ford Explorer excels in the competitive midsize three-row SUV market, offering a stylish new look and impressive performance. Notably, the updates for this year include a refined interior that enhances comfort and usability, making it more appealing to families. The Explorer maintains two robust engine options, including a powerful V6 that generates up to 400 horsepower. Further, this model features the Ford Digital Experience, a new infotainment system that adds modern conveniences such as a 13.2-inch touchscreen and excellent integration with popular apps like Google and Amazon Alexa. Safety remains a priority with the inclusion of Ford CoPilot 360+ for advanced driver assistance. Although its third-row seating can be tight for adults and lacks a hybrid variant, the Explorer’s overall performance, spacious cabin for the first two rows, and cutting-edge tech make it a compelling choice for buyers seeking versatility and style.
