A Rundown of the 2026 Ford Explorer
Performance
The new Explorer proves that capable means so much more than how many horses are under the hood. Features like the Intercooled Turbo Premium Unleaded I‑4 engine illustrate this point by coming through on both the highway and in the city. Add in virtually lag-free acceleration, and you've got one of the most balanced drives on today's market. Here’s a list with some more performance features available for this model:
- 5,000 lbs of towing capacity
- Trailer Sway Control
- Side-Wind Stabilization
Technology
What's in the cabin is just as important to today's SUV shoppers as what's under the hood. And with cabin accessories galore, the Ford commitment to an equally great drive and ride can never be questioned. For an even more comprehensive list of available technology features, read this list:
- Perimeter Alarm
- AdvanceTrac® with Roll Stability Control™
- Lane-Keeping System
Design
It's not easy to be as sleek as a sedan and as adaptable as an SUV, but the new Explorer makes it look that way. Sitting 6 (7 with bench) is a struggle for some automakers, but not the designers of the Explorer. Your passengers will appreciate the extra legroom and headroom during your next road trip. Learn more about what the Explorer has to offer design-wise here:
- Available Seating for Up to Seven
- Available Ambient Lighting
- Power Liftgate
