4 Reasons Drivers Love the 2024 Ford Explorer
It’s Ready for Adventures
Whether you want to explore the countryside or discover the great outdoors, the 2024 Explorer is up to the challenge. The standard configuration boasts a rear-wheel drivetrain paired with a 2.3L EcoBoost I-4 engine for spirited acceleration and superb handling on paved surfaces. Ford’s terrain management system comes standard, enhancing traction and vehicle control on slippery or gravel roads.
For off-road adventures, you can upgrade to an all-wheel drive system. In the higher trims, a 3.0L EcoBoost V6 engine delivers more power and torque for enhanced performance on and off the road.
Flexible Interior Design
Perfect for larger families, the Explorer offers comfortable seating for seven with ergonomic bucket seats in the front row, a 35/30/35 split-fold-flat second-row bench, and a 50/50 split-fold bench in the third row. This configuration makes it easy to adjust the crew and cargo capacity to your needs. Most higher trims, including the XLT, boast a standard six-seat configuration with individual captain’s chairs in the second row.
Ford’s E-Z entry comes standard on most trim levels, making it easy for the passengers to access the third row. A cargo volume of 18.2 cubic feet behind the third row offers plenty of space for groceries and luggage. The cargo volume is expandable up to 87.8 cubic feet behind the first row.
High-End Tech Features
Whether you want to stream your favorite playlist while driving, listen to the radio, or access driving information, the intuitive infotainment system makes it all possible. Smartphone connectivity comes standard and includes Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility, for seamless hands-free phone control. Each trim level also boasts built-in 4G Wi-Fi hotspot capability, so you’ll never have to worry about missing any group chats or important emails.
Premium sound also comes standard, elevating your driving experience with crisp acoustics. Safety and driver-assistive technologies range from parking sensors to exterior cameras and anti-collision systems designed to make maneuvering easy. Most higher trims also come with built-in navigation, giving you peace of mind when traveling to new places.
Versatile Customization Options
No matter which trim level you prefer, optional packages make it easy to customize the model with performance, convenience, and comfort upgrades. A Class IV trailer tow package, for instance, optimizes the model for camping trips. Exclusive styling packages are available for the higher trim levels, and some models also include technology upgrades, such as auto-dimming rearview mirrors and universal garage door openers.
