Dealer Comments
The 2026 Ford Explorer ST delivers high-value features as standard, outpacing most similarly-priced SUVs by including navigation, heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, a heated steering wheel, and an advanced 10-speaker audio system.
Analytical buyers seeking maximum value will recognize the Explorer ST’s comprehensive suite of comfort, convenience, and safety features as a smart investment. Standard 3rd row seating, tri-zone automatic climate control, and power-adjustable front seats provide flexibility for family routines or group travel. In climates like central Florida, the ventilated front seats and remote start are practical upgrades typically reserved for higher trims elsewhere, but are included here. The combination of BlueCruise and a full navigation system makes this SUV especially appealing to tech-focused buyers who want advanced driver assistance without additional packages or fees.
Performance value is delivered through the standard 3.0L EcoBoost V6 paired to a 10-speed automatic transmission with 4WD, offering robust everyday power and efficient highway cruising. With 18 city and 25 highway EPA-estimated MPG, this SUV stands out among performance-oriented three-row options for those tracking fuel costs in their spreadsheet. The 10-speed’s smooth gear changes contribute to lower engine stress, which can translate to reduced long-term maintenance expenses. Owners benefit from a powerful drivetrain that doesn’t compromise on efficiency or operational cost, making it a balanced performer for both daily use and longer trips.
Safety value shines with a long list of standard features, including ABS brakes, electronic stability control, traction control, multiple airbags (front, knee, side, and overhead), and a rear parking camera. The BlueCruise Equipped system adds hands-free driving capability for select highways at no additional charge during the initial plan period. Emergency communication via 911 Assist and rain-sensing wipers are also included as standard, features that some competitors only offer in expensive packages. This SUV’s safety equipment is designed to minimize both risk and extra spending for peace of mind on every drive.
The Equipment Group 400A Standard Package and Sun and Sound Package together offer notable value by bundling premium audio, navigation, ventilated front seats, and a power liftgate. Driver and passenger comfort is prioritized with heated and memory seats, dual-zone automatic temperature control, and a heated leather steering wheel.
Compared to alternatives like the Chevrolet Traverse RS and Dodge Durango R/T, the Explorer ST stands apart by packaging advanced tech and luxury features as standard, while those competitors typically charge extra for items like BlueCruise-level driver assistance or ventilated front seats.
What’s included as standard equipment? Buyers receive navigation, BlueCruise Equipped, ventilated and heated front seats, heated rear seats, premium audio, and a power liftgate—all at no extra cost. Is this SUV worth the price? Its robust standard feature set, advanced tech, and capable EcoBoost V6 make it a standout value among performance SUVs.
