New 2026 Ford Explorer Active
Vehicle Details
Description
This SUV is ideal for families and practical drivers who need adaptable space, advanced connectivity, and features that make everyday use easier. In regions with variable climates like St. Louis, the 4WD system provides year-round confidence on slick roads or during family road trips. The third-Row seating and rear air conditioning deliver versatility for both child transport and longer journeys, while the inclusion of Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and navigation system ensures modern convenience for tech-savvy households.
The Explorer’s 2.3L EcoBoost® I-4 engine is designed for a balance of power and durability, contributing to a reputation for longevity that appeals to value-driven owners. Paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission, the drivetrain delivers smooth shifts and optimized efficiency, making it well-suited for both city commutes and highway cruising. The EPA-estimated 20 city and 27 highway MPG enhances its cost-effectiveness over time, supporting ownership economics by reducing fuel expenses during regular use.
Long-term safety is built into this vehicle through its comprehensive suite of active and passive systems. Standard ABS brakes, traction control, electronic stability control, and a rear parking camera provide everyday security, while dual front and side impact airbags, a knee airbag, and an overhead airbag system help protect occupants in a range of scenarios. Emergency communication via 911 Assist further strengthens peace of mind, ensuring that investment in the Explorer is also an investment in family protection.
This Explorer features sought-after amenities like front dual-zone automatic temperature control, rear air conditioning, a power driver seat, remote keyless entry, and a security system, all intended to streamline daily routines. The integrated navigation system, SiriusXM with 360L, and steering wheel-mounted audio controls bring entertainment and convenience to every trip. Split folding rear seats expand cargo flexibility, while the fully automatic headlights and speed-sensitive wipers adapt to changing driving conditions with ease.
