2022 Ford Explorer

With three rows of seating, plenty of cargo space, and a full suite of safety features, the 2022 Ford Explorer is the perfect vehicle for both you and your family. Ford continues to add pleasant surprises into the Ford Explorer lineup, and 2022 is no different. Let’s explore more about what this vehicle offers.

Basics About the 2022 Ford Explorer


The Ford Explorer is a mid-sized SUV that’s been around for over 30 years as a family and travel staple. This sporty SUV seats 7 people, and its standard 2.3L EcoBoost engine with 10-speed automatic transmission. is enough to fuel any road trip. The optional Trailer Sway Control package lets you tow a generous amount of cargo with confidence. Also standard is the Terrain Management System, which adjusts your vehicle’s driving based on the terrain.

New Features for 2022

Ford takes all of its models up a notch for 2022. First, it introduced the new Explorer-ST line, which has the sleek design of the ST but with more capability and 20-inch wheels. The inside of the ST-Line features a sporty steering wheel, red accent stitching, and a Bang & Olufsen stereo that will only enhance your listening experience.

The existing ST model is now available with rear-wheel drive, which is optimal over front-wheel drive for towing heavy loads.  Two of the Explorer’s highest-end trims, the King Ranch and Platinum, now come standard with 400 horsepower. 

Trim Levels for Custom Options

Choose the perfect car for your lifestyle and budget when you choose a Ford Explorer. The available trims start with the Base model and include the XLT, ST-Line, Timberline, Limited, ST, King Ranch, and Platinum. Each model has its own feels and capabilities to suit your needs. For example, the King Ranch will give you a Southwestern feel and is perfect for towing your heaviest loads: up to 5600 pounds.

Meanwhile, the Platinum is all about luxury inside and out with its trim-level diamond seating surfaces and accent stitching. But even the lower-trim models like the Base model come with standard features to maximize comfort, like tri-zone electronic automatic temperature control. Everyone in the car can control their own temperature settings!

Attention to All the Details

The Explorer maximizes convenience from the largest to the smallest details. Auto high beams ensure you have visibility no matter where you are, and the power liftgate means you’ll never have to struggle to open the trunk again. Inside, enjoy the SYNC 3 entertainment technology with an 8-inch touchscreen, voice navigation, and Apple Carplay. And don’t forget about the Explorer’s suite of safety features: Ford Co-Pilot360.
