5 Key Features That Make the 2024 Ford Explorer a Family Favorite
1. Safety Comes First
There’s a reason the 2024 Explorer earned the IIHS’s coveted Top Safety Pick+ designation. A strong frame and plenty of airbags offer excellent crash protection. And the Co-Pilot360 suite of driver-assist technology features coming standard, offering features like blind-spot monitoring, adaptive cruise control, and rear parking sensors. The 2024 Explorer has what it takes to ensure everyone gets home safely at the end of the journey.
2. A Flexible Interior
With comfortable seating for up to 7 and plenty of cargo room to boot, the 2024 Explorer can bring the whole family and their belongings, too. Adults and tall teens will savor the 39 inches of legroom in the second row, and with up to 87.8 cubic feet of cargo volume behind the first row of seating, the Explorer is perfectly suited for big box-store shopping hauls or home improvement store runs.
A power liftgate comes standard for easy loading, and a hands-free option is available, making loading up for the next adventure a snap.
3. Everyone Rides in Comfort and Privacy
With standard tri-zone automatic climate control and rear auxiliary climate control, the Explorer helps everyone keep their cool. The second and third rows are protected from prying eyes by standard privacy glass. With multiple USB charging outlets coming standard and 110-volt power points available, everyone’s devices can keep juiced up. And with FordPass Connect 4G LTE Wi-Fi Hotspot capability on every trim, ensuring everyone can access their favorite shows and music.
4. It’s Mighty Beefy
The entry-level 2.3-liter EcoBoost I4 engine offers drivers 300 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque for a feisty driving experience. But for those who demand more, the 3.0-liter EcoBoost V6 offers 400 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque. Whichever power plant you prefer, there’s plenty of power available under the pedal. Intelligent four-wheel drive configurations are also available, making the Explorer ready for any challenge and opening the doors to adventure.
5. Tons of Towing
When the adventure calls for a boat or camper to come along for the ride, the Explorer is ready. It’s capable of towing up to 5,600 pounds when properly configured, making it the perfect choice for weekend getaways with a trailer in tow.
