Under the hood, the new Ford Explorer offers two proven EcoBoost® turbocharged engines paired with a quick-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission. The standard 2.3-liter EcoBoost® 4-cylinder engine generates a stout 300 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque, providing brisk acceleration for merging onto I-94 while maintaining impressive highway fuel economy.

When it comes to hauling recreational gear, the Explorer is built to work. Properly equipped models offer a maximum towing capacity of up to 5,000 pounds, allowing you to easily pull ski boats to Lake Carlos, utility trailers loaded with snowmobiles, or midsize campers across Minnesota.

Intelligent 4WD & 7-Mode Terrain Management System™
Winter in Central Minnesota brings unyielding snowstorms, black ice, and freezing slush. To keep your family protected, the new Ford Explorer offers available Intelligent 4WD. This system continuously monitors road conditions and wheel speed, instantly routing torque to the wheels with the best traction before slippage can occur.
Combined with the Terrain Management System™, drivers can easily select from seven distinct drive modes via a rotary dial on the center console: Normal, Trail, Deep Snow/Sand, Slippery, Sport, Tow/Haul, and Eco. When severe winter blizzards impact Douglas County roads, selecting Slippery or Deep Snow/Sand mode optimizes throttle sensitivity and traction control for sure-footed winter driving.
Spacious 3-Row Interior & Ford Digital Experience
Step inside the cabin, and the new Ford Explorer impresses with a completely redesigned interior utilizing soft-touch materials, ambient lighting, and acoustic glass for a quiet ride. Standard models seat up to seven passengers with a second-row 35/30/35 bench seat, while available second-row Captain's Chairs with E-Z Entry reduce capacity to six while providing a center aisle for third-row access. Behind the third row, the Explorer offers generous cargo space, expanding up to 85.8 cubic feet when both rear rows are folded flat.
