Summary

With 9,651 currently listed for sale on CarGurus and an average price of $25,566.60, 35.1% of 2021 Ford Explorers for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.

82.5% of 2021 Explorer models on CarGurus are accident free.
The 2021 Ford Explorer featured a 300-horsepower EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, offering impressive performance and efficiency for a midsize SUV.

Why it stands out

The 2021 Ford Explorer distinguishes itself in the competitive midsize SUV market with its robust performance and modern design, built on a unique rear-wheel-drive platform that enhances handling and ride comfort. Its diverse engine options, including the efficient 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder and the powerful 3.0-liter V6, provide ample power for both everyday driving and towing needs.

Other model years to consider

The 2017, 2018, and 2019 Ford Explorer model years present strong alternatives for buyers seeking affordability without compromising quality. With average prices significantly lower than newer models—around $14,000 for the 2017 and approximately $16,000 for the 2018—they provide excellent value while maintaining solid user ratings above 4.5 out of 5. Additionally, these years have a considerable percentage of good deals available, enhancing inventory options for prospective buyers looking to make a budget-friendly choice.

Model years to approach with caution

When considering the Ford Explorer across various model years, it's essential for buyers to evaluate pricing trends, user feedback, and deal availability. Notably, several recent model years have garnered comparatively lower ratings and a high percentage of listings categorized as not good or great deals, which may impact overall value. Additionally, the limited availability of favorable deals on these models suggests that potential buyers should conduct thorough research before making a purchase decision.

These recommendations are based on CarGurus' proprietary market data from December 17, 2025, CarGurus experts' opinions, and generative AI.

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.

I absolutely love my new explorer king ranch!! It has all the bells and whistles and then some, if I could have asked for anything else it would be a bench seat in the back. But it has third row seating so it has buckets in the back.
