Why it stands out

The 2026 Ford Explorer continues to be a strong contender in the midsize SUV market, blending capability with practicality. The introduction of the new Tremor model marks a significant update, emphasizing off-road performance without compromising comfort for everyday family use. This model features improvements like raised suspension, all-terrain tires, and superior ground clearance, making it well-suited for off-road adventures. In addition to its rugged capabilities, it retains the Explorer's spacious interior, comfortably seating seven passengers across three rows. While the design may be seen as bland and the interior lacks some upscale touches, the Explorer boasts impressive safety features, solid performance from its powertrains, including an optional twin-turbo V6, and a high safety rating that reassures buyers seeking a reliable family vehicle. Altogether, it remains a practical choice with potential for off-road thrills, particularly for those opting for the Tremor trim.
