This Explorer combines fuel efficiency with genuine utility. The 2.3L EcoBoost engine achieves 20 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway, balancing performance with economy for daily driving. The responsive 10-speed automatic transmission smooths acceleration while managing fuel consumption, and rear-wheel drive provides predictable handling.
Interior refinements make every journey more pleasant. Dual-zone climate control maintains comfort for driver and front passenger independently, while rear air conditioning keeps third-row occupants satisfied on longer trips. The integrated navigation system pairs seamlessly with your smartphone via Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, keeping you connected and informed throughout your drive.
Safety is woven into every aspect of this vehicle's design. A comprehensive airbag system includes front and side impact protection along with knee and overhead airbags. Electronic Stability Control and traction control work together to maintain composure in challenging conditions, while four-wheel disc brakes with ABS provide confident stopping power. The rear parking camera gives you clear visibility when backing up, and low tire pressure monitoring alerts you to maintain optimal tire condition.
The practical three-row seating arrangement accommodates up to eight passengers, with flexible configurations to balance passengers and cargo as your needs change. Front bucket seats with a center armrest provide comfortable support for day-to-day driving, and the power-adjustable driver seat allows personalized positioning for any driver.
This gray Explorer Active is ready to become part of your daily routine. We invite you to visit our showroom to experience the solid construction, intuitive controls, and thoughtful layout that make this vehicle a reliable choice for families and individuals alike.

So far so good - smooth ride - plenty of power for a 2.3 liter 4 cyl which coming from someone who drove a 5.0 V8 for 20 yrs- much better on gas - 4.0
Served our family well!

Trading my car in next week, I am gonna miss my Explorer. It’s been a good family car. Draw backs: the screen is glitchy at times. Some electronics malfunctioned and I won’t lie, they can be costly to fix. Comfortable, spacious. I never had any mechanical problems with the car, but I did take very good care of it at well. I maintained all recommended services and any replacements were all genuine Ford parts. I hope whoever buys our car, loves it as much as we did.
