Interior Design

Adaptable Cargo Bay

When the 2025 Ford Explorer is filled with people, there will be just under 530 litres of cargo volume. However, that can be quickly expanded to 1,264 litres by folding the third row down and to 2,132 litres by folding the second and third rows away.

Cargo Management System

Given the amount of cargo volume offered by the 2025 Explorer, people might need a little help keeping small items well organized. The available cargo management system includes extra side pockets and an under-floor storage area to keep the vehicle free of clutter.

Performance

Explorer Performance Specs

The 2025 Ford Explorer is simply one of the most capable three-row SUVs in its class. That performance starts with the incredible array of powertrain options. Base models squeeze 300 horsepower out of a turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Platinum and ST trims have a turbocharged V-6 under the hood, making 365 and 400 horsepower, respectively. Even the naturally aspirated V-6 used by hybrid models makes 318 horsepower.

All-Terrain Capability

Never feel constrained by a lack of capability with the 2025 Explorer. The Timberline® trim is purpose-built to tackle rough trails. It features several off-road-ready features, including:

  • 8.6 inches of ground clearance
  • Off-road front struts, rear shocks
  • All-terrain tires on 18-inch wheels

Technology

Wireless Charging

Keep your favourite digital device charged without a tangled mess of wires with the wireless charging tray, located at the button of the center stack. Additional USB ports are located throughout the 2026 Explorer, allowing passengers to plug in and charge up their devices.

Premium Audio Systems

You don’t have to worry about missing the concert of the year if you can take that audio experience with you. The available Bang and Olufsen audio system comes with 12 speakers, and a subwoofer. A 14-speaker version is also available.

Safety

Ford Co-Pilot360™

The best way to protect people during a collision is to prevent it from ever occurring. The Ford Co-Pilot360™ system consists of several sensor suites that constantly feed information to a central computer that provides early warnings to the driver. Ford Co-Pilot360™ consists of:

  • Automatic High Beam
  • Rear View Camera
  • BLIS®
  • Pre-Collision Assist®
  • Lane-Keeping System
  • Adaptive Cruise Control

Automatic Emergency Braking

If a collision does occur, it might not be possible for the driver to apply the brakes. The Post-Collision Braking System can do this automatically in an attempt to mitigate further damage and danger to the people in the 2025 Ford Explorer.
