When you’re looking for a tough SUV that’s prepared for anything, the 2020 Ford Explorer is an excellent choice. Its aggressive yet modern look and spacious interior make it a perfect ride for both families and commuters who venture out on frequent weekend adventures. Here’s a closer look at some of the great features you’ll enjoy when you drive a new Explorer home.
1. Unmatched Power
Always up for adventure, the 2020 Explorer is equipped with everything you need to go anywhere you want. Most trims come with a 2.3-liter four-cylinder EcoBoost engine under the hood. This engine delivers 300 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque and is mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission. At the ST and Platinum trim levels, you’ll get a 3.0 liter EcoBoost V-6 engine that pumps out 365 horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque in the Platinum model and up to 400 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque in the powerful ST trim.
Every trim level except the top-level Platinum comes standard with rear-wheel drive. However, standard on the Platinum trim and optional on the other trim levels is intelligent four-wheel drive. This system will provide traction to the wheels that need it most when you encounter less than ideal driving conditions.
2. Abundant Safety Technology
You and your family will have no trouble feeling safe and confident when you take on the road in a Ford Explorer. With Ford Co-Pilot360 on your side, you’ll have the help of driver-assist features like auto high-beam headlamps, a lane-keeping system, automatic emergency braking, and the blind-spot information system with pedestrian detection. Intelligent adaptive cruise control will help you stay a safe distance from the car in front of you by applying the brakes if they slow down and accelerating when they speed up again without any help from you.
3. Exceptional Good Looks
While the Explorers of the past were well-loved by consumers, the more modern appearance of the 2020 Explorer models makes it a sought-after SUV. Even at the base Explorer trim level, you’ll get 18-inch wheels, LED headlamps, a power liftgate, and a molded-in rear bumper step. When you opt for one of the higher trims, you’ll enjoy roof rack side rails, heated side mirrors with turn signal indicators, LED fog lamps, and a hands-free foot-activated liftgate.
4. Modern Interior
The interior of the 2020 Ford Explorer has plenty of modern appeal that makes it great for families as well as younger drivers. With the Sync 3 infotainment system, you and your passenger can stay connected. You can easily access your favorite apps via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, and Ford+Alexa technology lets you bring the convenience of Alexa with you on the road. Other comfortable features that make your drive more relaxing, depending on trim, include a heated steering wheel, a twin-panel moonroof, wireless charging capability, and so much more.
