New 2027 Ford Explorer Platinum
Vehicle Details
Description
Analytical shoppers who compare spec sheets and hunt for the best value will find that this SUV’s standard features list reads like a fully loaded options menu on many rivals. The Platinum trim brings leather seating, heated and ventilated front seats, a power liftgate, and advanced connectivity without upselling. In regions with variable weather like St. Louis, the standard remote start, heated rear seats, and rain-sensing wipers make daily use more comfortable and convenient, further demonstrating the Explorer’s practical value proposition for families and professionals who refuse to sacrifice comfort for affordability.
Performance is also a strong value point with the 2.3L EcoBoost® I-4 engine paired to a 10-speed automatic transmission and 4WD system. This powertrain offers smooth acceleration and confident traction in challenging conditions, all while maintaining an EPA-estimated 20 MPG city and 27 MPG highway-impressive for a three-Row SUV with this level of equipment. The fuel efficiency translates to lower annual fuel expenses compared to V6 competitors, and Ford’s EcoBoost® technology is engineered for long-term cost efficiency by balancing power and economy, reducing the need for costly premium fuels or frequent maintenance interventions.
Safety is comprehensive straight from the factory, not as an extra charge. Standard features include ABS brakes, dual front and side impact airbags, a knee airbag, electronic stability control, and Ford’s 911 Assist emergency communication system. The Platinum model further includes a rearview camera, automatic high-beam headlights, and rain-sensing wipers, enhancing situational awareness and driver confidence. Notably, while many rivals reserve such safety tech for higher trims or expensive safety packages, the Explorer Platinum delivers them as part of the standard suite, ensuring peace of mind is built into the base price.
With the Equipment Group 600A Standard Package and Lux Leather Package, the Explorer Platinum comes equipped with advanced navigation, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, tri-zone automatic climate control, memory seating, and a universal garage door opener. Entertainment is covered by
