Why it stands out

The 2026 Ford Explorer continues its legacy as a family-oriented midsize SUV, now enhanced with the introduction of the Tremor trim, designed for those seeking off-road capability without sacrificing comfort. This model features a rugged appearance, all-terrain tires, and a raised suspension, providing excellent ground clearance and approach angles for off-roading enthusiasts. The standard 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine delivers 300 horsepower, while the optional twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 offers a robust 400 horsepower, ensuring ample power for both everyday driving and adventurous outings. Interior enhancements, especially with the updated infotainment system, support a modern driving experience, featuring a 13.2-inch touchscreen and advanced connectivity options. However, the Explorer is noted for its somewhat bland styling and interior materials that may not justify the higher price tags as options add up. Despite these limitations, the Explorer's stellar safety ratings and all-around capability make it a compelling choice for families.
