Picture of Ford Explorer

The original Ford Explorer sparked an American love affair with SUVs. The 2025 Explorer nourishes it.

Thanks to numerous changes for 2025, the Ford Explorer is a more appealing alternative to the seemingly countless choices in the midsize three-row SUV segment. Highlights include sophisticated new infotainment and safety technologies, improved interior quality, bolder styling, and a simplified lineup offering Active, ST-Line, Platinum, and ST trim levels. Also, as the prices of rivals have risen, the 2025 Ford Explorer seems properly priced in comparison.

Verdict: Ford’s updates to the Explorer for the 2025 model year have a positive effect on the SUV’s desirability. It looks tougher, it feels nicer inside, and the family-friendly SUV leaps forward technologically. Turbocharged power and a rear-drive platform add driving enjoyment. All that’s missing is a more comfortable third-row seat, an electrified powertrain option, and an off-road trim level.

4.3 Overall rating

(1,353 reviews)

Customers say

The Ford Explorer has consistently impressed owners across its model years for its spacious interior, comfort, and strong performance, making it a top choice for families and those needing versatility in an SUV. Many drivers appreciate the powerful engine options, high-tech features, and ample cargo space. However, concerns about fuel economy, handling on certain models, and specific comfort issues have been commonly noted. Overall, the Explorer stands out for its reliability and practicality, though some drivers wish for improvements in gas mileage and additional features.

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.
