Dealer Comments
This SUV is tailored for buyers who prioritize refinement, contemporary design, and comfort for families or professionals alike. Its third-row bench seating and dual-zone automatic climate control cater to those who need versatile space without sacrificing upscale ambiance. The Explorer Active’s advanced infotainment—complete with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and navigation—ensures seamless connectivity. For those in Lakeland, FL, features like rear air conditioning and advanced climate control add comfort during humid summer months, while the SUV’s thoughtful interior touches support a polished daily routine.
Driving the Explorer is an experience rooted in composure and smoothness, thanks to its 2.3L EcoBoost I-4 engine paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. This powertrain emphasizes quiet operation, minimal vibration, and responsive acceleration, making city traffic and highway cruising equally serene. The rear-wheel-drive platform contributes to balanced handling, while four-wheel independent suspension and speed-sensitive steering enhance stability. The cabin’s isolation from road and wind noise enables conversations and music to remain clear, even during brisk merges or long highway stretches. EPA ratings of 20 city and 29 highway MPG further support its premium, effortless character.
Safety is seamlessly integrated into the Explorer’s overall feeling of sophistication. Features such as blind spot monitoring, electronic stability control, and an exterior parking camera rear function invisibly to protect all occupants. Automatic emergency communication through 911 Assist and a robust suite of airbags—including knee, side impact, and overhead—are designed to work without intrusion, maintaining the tranquil cabin environment. ABS brakes, traction control, and brake assist contribute to peace of mind, letting drivers focus on enjoying the premium journey rather than worrying about road hazards or sudden stops.
Inside, this SUV is loaded with features that elevate every mile. Premium synthetic seats and a power driver seat offer customizable comfort, while the front dual-zone automatic climate control ensures both driver and passenger can tailor their environment. The AM/FM radio with SiriusXM and 360L, steering wheel-mounted audio controls, and navigation system blend technology with convenience. Rear air conditioning keeps the third row comfortable, and ambient touches like illuminated entry and overhead console lighting enhance evening drives. Remote keyless entry and power windows round out the experience for effortless daily usability.
Compared to other midsize SUVs such as the Honda Pilot and Chevrolet Traverse, the Explorer stands out with its tactile material quality, advanced climate features, and a quieter, more insulated ride.
What premium materials are used in the interior? The cabin is appointed in Dark Space Gray premium synthetic seating, offering both durability and a soft, upscale feel. How quiet is the cabin? Enhanced insulation and four-wheel independent suspension combine to significantly reduce road and wind noise, ensuring a tranquil driving experience.
