Dealer Comments
The 2027 Ford Explorer Active delivers a confident, deeply satisfying driving experience unique among three-row SUVs. Every input—from the substantial, speed-sensitive steering to the well-damped chassis—reminds you that control and composure matter here.
Enthusiasts who notice the subtleties of ride and handling will appreciate how the Explorer Active makes daily commutes and long trips through central Florida feel composed and rewarding. The independent suspension keeps the body settled over rough pavement, while the balanced chassis imparts a reassuring sense of stability. Drivers who value feedback from the road, a refined highway ride, and precise control over turns will find this SUV especially compelling for both urban traffic and open-road adventures.
Performance stands front and center with this model. The turbocharged 2.3L EcoBoost delivers strong, linear acceleration, and the 10-speed automatic transmission is always ready with the right ratio for passing or relaxed cruising. The steering communicates just enough road texture without harshness, maintaining composure even during quick lane changes. Four-wheel independent suspension and anti-roll bars keep body motions in check, while the brake pedal offers progressive, predictable feel—allowing you to place the SUV confidently in traffic or on a winding bypass. Throttle response is tuned for both efficiency and spirited driving, making every trip feel purposeful.
Safety systems on the Explorer Active are designed to enhance, not dilute, the driving experience. Electronic Stability Control intervenes seamlessly when needed, providing a safety net without numbing feedback. Traction control and four-wheel disc brakes work together to maximize grip and stopping confidence, even in sudden maneuvers. Emergency communication with 911 Assist and a rear parking camera expand your situational awareness, letting you focus on the road ahead while knowing extra layers of protection are quietly at work.
This Explorer comes equipped for modern driving with an intuitive Navigation System, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for seamless smartphone integration, and a crisp AM/FM radio with SiriusXM 360L. The cabin offers dual-zone automatic climate control, front bucket seats, and a third-row bench for flexible passenger or cargo arrangements. Speed-sensing wipers and automatic high-beam headlights help you maintain focus in changing conditions, while remote keyless entry and a power driver seat add daily convenience. Every feature is designed to support and enhance your connection to the drive.
Against rivals like the Honda Pilot and Chevrolet Traverse, the Explorer stands out for its balance of driver engagement and comfort. Where some competitors favor soft isolation or stiffer tuning, this SUV finds the sweet spot: it remains composed on highways and responsive in corners.
How composed does the Explorer feel on the highway? The SUV remains impressively settled at speed, with minimal wind and road noise thanks to thoughtful insulation and suspension tuning. Is the ride comfortable for long drives? Yes, the independent suspension and dual-zone climate control keep fatigue at bay, even on extended journeys.

Contact (863) 577-5030 or visit 1430 W Memorial Blvd, Lakeland, FL 33815, to discover how this SUV brings together dynamic handling, thoughtful features, and everyday comfort.
