2023 Ford Explorer Review

Power Your Dreams

Childhood dreams began when you flexed in front of a mirror, imagining feats of strength as different fantasies played out. Those dreams can come true when you rev the engine of a Ford Explorer.

Each of these engine options is prepared to handle your lifestyle. The Ford Explorer has standard rear-wheel drive with available Intelligent 4WD (4-wheel drive). This allows you to emphasize cornering for city streets or the confidence to head home during a snowstorm.

With a towing capacity over 5,000 pounds when properly equipped, drivers can tow what they need for a successful weekend getaway. This can include boats, campers, or a couple of ATVs.

The Beaten Path

As your hands make their way through the butter-drenched popcorn at the movies, the characters cut their way through path covered in leaves and intrigue. Whether it is knights of a round table or the superheroes you first encountered on the pages of a comic book, legends are made on the beaten path.

The Ford Explorer features a standard Terrain Management System™. Up to seven Selectable Drive Modes can optimize your performance for different conditions, including:

• Deep Snow/Sand
• Trail
• Slippery
• Sport

Available SelectShift® paddles shifters are also easily accessible, helping you manipulate the SUV.

If you are behind the wheel of a Ford Explorer Timberline, you can also benefit from a design that gives you room for adventure. This includes 8.66 inches of ground clearance and 18-inch High Gloss Black painted aluminum wheels.

Your Grand Tour

Fantasy can play out on a stage. Watching your favorite artists play amongst the smoke and lights makes the music come alive.

When you travel in the Ford Explorer, up to seven people can head to the concert. The SUV can include features, like:

• Available B&O® Sound System by Bang & Olufsen®
• Available twin-panel moonroof
• Available Cargo Management System

The available B&O® Sound System by Bang & Olufsen® is an array of 12 speakers. When combined with optional multi-color ambient lighting, the concert can take place inside the SUV.

You can pack for your grand tour, too. The available Cargo Management System includes underfloor storage. Drivers can use a reversible load floor for plastic bedding. With up to 87.8 cubic feet of cargo room, the Ford Explorer creates space for your lifestyle.
