Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2025 Ford Explorer 5 / 5 stars.

The 2025 Ford Explorer features a powerful V6 engine, a stylish interior, and advanced infotainment and safety technologies, making it a competitive choice in the midsize SUV segment.
Why it stands out
The 2025 Ford Explorer stands out in the crowded midsize SUV market due to its blend of performance, comfort, and technology. With a choice of two robust EcoBoost engines, including a turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder and a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6, the Explorer delivers impressive power and driving enjoyment. The recent updates for 2025 have enhanced its appeal, featuring a refreshed exterior design that looks more rugged and sophisticated, alongside a significantly improved interior that boasts high-quality materials and a user-friendly 13.2-inch touchscreen infotainment system. The introduction of Ford CoPilot 360+ safety features across all trims adds to its family-friendly credentials. However, potential buyers should note the cramped third-row seating, which may not be suitable for adults on longer journeys. Overall, the 2025 Explorer is a well-rounded SUV that offers a compelling mix of style, technology, and performance.

Purchased an ST-Line. Very nice interior, ford updated infotainment system, excellent value between active and ST trims, sportier stylish looks compared to similar models in class, efficient 2.3 eco boost engine with plenty of pickup. Extremely pleased with our explorer.

My seventh Explorer! Always have had good luck with them! It has everything I need. I like the V6 engine vs the 2.3L which is to small for that size vehicle.
