Explore 5 Highlights of the 2025 Ford Explorer

1. Convenient and Comfortable Seats

With three rows of seating and upscale seating materials like unique cloth, ActiveX, and leather with tri-diamond inserts offered among its trim levels, the 2025 Explorer’s seats are easily a top highlight. The front seats are heated and have ventilation as well in select upper trims, the second row has sliding E-Z Entry captain’s chairs that tilt and can also be heated in some trims, and the third row split-folding bench seat has a power function in many trims.

2. Two Powerful Turbocharged Engines

Among this SUV’s multiple trim levels are two engines, a 2.3-liter I4 and a 3.0-liter V6, both of which are turbocharged and capable of towing up to 5,000 pounds when fully equipped. The I4 engine delivers 300 horsepower alongside 310 pound-feet of torque, more than enough for most drivers. If you should need more power, you’ll easily find it in the V6, which increases output to 400 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque.

3. The Ford Co-Pilot360 Assist+ Suite

Few SUVs offer as many driver-assist features as this one does, and even lower trims come with Ford Co-Pilot360 Assist+. This advanced suite includes Auto High-Beam Headlamps, Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking, Evasive Steering Assist, and Post-Collision Braking to help minimize the risk of frontal collisions. Adding to that, the Lane-Keeping System, Rear View Camera, BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) with Cross-Traffic Alert, and Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop & Go and Lane Centering are all included as well.

4. A Full-Color Infotainment System

The clear standout of this SUV’s many impressive tech features is its infotainment system, Ford Digital Experience, which comes with Google Built-in and plenty of other functions and a large 13.2-inch full-color touchscreen display. This system has AM/FM stereo, apps, and wireless smartphone compatibility. It also allows you to access the Google Play store to download apps, navigate your way to your next destination with Google Maps, and get live traffic updates when connected with a data plan.

5. Multiple Systems for Off-Roading

Staying true to its name, this SUV is ready to explore nature with its available Intelligent 4WD system, which automatically calibrates itself to terrain changes. Along with this, many other versatility-enhancing features are offered, like the standard terrain management system, which lets you choose from Sport, Tow/Haul, Eco, Slippery, and Trail modes in all models, as well as Deep Snow/Sand in models equipped with four-wheel drive.
