Dealer Comments

The 2027 Ford Explorer Active stands out as the smart choice among three-row midsize SUVs like the Honda Pilot and Chevrolet Traverse by combining confident performance, strong standard technology, and versatile family-friendly features.

Shoppers comparing several midsize SUVs will find the Explorer Active is ideal for families needing adaptable space, modern technology, and ease of use for daily commutes or road trips. The third-row seating and split folding rear seats make it easy to switch between cargo and passenger configurations, while amenities like dual-zone automatic temperature control and a navigation system support comfort and convenience. In regions like Central Florida, the Explorer’s air conditioning and rear window defroster ensure comfort year-round, making it particularly suitable for buyers navigating both hot summers and occasional storms.

In terms of performance, while rivals like the Honda Pilot offer V6 options, this SUV’s 2.3L EcoBoost I-4 engine delivers strong, efficient power matched to a smooth 10-speed automatic transmission. This combination supports both city and highway driving with EPA ratings of 20 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway. The rear-wheel drive layout enhances handling stability, especially when the vehicle is fully loaded with passengers or cargo, offering a composed and predictable driving feel that puts it ahead of many front-wheel-drive competitors in terms of driving dynamics.

Safety is a clear area where the Explorer Active takes the lead, as it includes a comprehensive set of standard active features such as ABS brakes, electronic stability control, brake assist, auto high-beam headlights, and an exterior parking camera. Many competitors in this class require buyers to move up to higher trims or add costly options for similar safety technology. With dual front impact airbags, side impact airbags, a knee airbag, and emergency communication via 911 Assist, this SUV provides both peace of mind and practical protection for busy families.

The Explorer Active comes equipped with a valuable mix of features designed for daily versatility, including a power driver seat, three-zone climate controls, remote keyless entry, a SiriusXM stereo with 360L, and a fully integrated navigation system. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility streamlines smartphone integration, while speed-sensitive wipers and heated door mirrors add to convenience in changing weather. The inclusion of a rear window wiper and rear window defroster further enhances usability in all seasons.

When evaluating value and competition, the Explorer Active holds its own against the Honda Pilot and Chevrolet Traverse by offering a more refined mix of standard technology and active safety features at its trim level. Unlike some competitors, it provides a standard navigation system and three-zone climate control, features often reserved for higher trims elsewhere. The Explorer’s transferable 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty further reinforces its value, making it a smart long-term investment for families wanting reliability and flexibility.

Why choose the Explorer Active over the Pilot or Traverse? It provides more advanced standard features and a higher level of standard active safety equipment. What does this SUV offer that others don't? Seamless smartphone integration and a user-friendly navigation system come included, as does tri-zone climate control for added passenger comfort.
