The Ford Explorer continues to be a go-to choice for Huntington families who want a spacious, capable, and tech-savvy midsize SUV. Available now at University Ford, the Explorer offers three-row seating for up to seven passengers and a wide range of trims—from practical to powerful and everything in between.

Ford Explorer Trims and Seating Options

Trims include the well-equipped Base, versatile XLT, upscale Limited, high-performance ST, and premium Platinum. Captain’s chairs are optional on most trims, giving you the flexibility to seat six or seven. And with multiple appearance and tech packages available, it’s easy to tailor your Explorer to match your lifestyle.

Explorer Engines and Performance

Most trims are powered by a 2.3L EcoBoost® four-cylinder engine (300 hp, 310 lb-ft of torque), paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel drive comes standard, with available Intelligent 4WD for added confidence in all conditions. Looking for more power? The ST trim packs a 3.0L turbocharged V6 (400 hp, 415 lb-ft), while the Platinum version detunes that engine slightly to 365 hp for smoother performance. The Limited Hybrid combines a 3.3L V6 with electric power for an impressive 318 hp and better fuel efficiency.

How much can the Ford Explorer tow? When properly equipped, the Explorer can tow up to 5,600 pounds, making it a great SUV for hauling boats, trailers, or weekend toys around Huntington and beyond.

Interior Features and Technology

Standard features include an 8-inch touchscreen with SYNC® 3, Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and tri-zone climate control. As you move up, expect leather-trimmed seating, ambient lighting, a hands-free liftgate, heated and ventilated seats, wireless charging, and even massaging front seats on select trims.

Premium audio lovers will appreciate the available 14-speaker Bang & Olufsen® system, while tech-savvy drivers can upgrade to a 10.1-inch touchscreen and fully digital instrument panel.

Blind Spot Information System with Cross-Traffic Alert
Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking
Lane-Keeping System
Rear View Camera with washer

Optional upgrades like adaptive cruise control, evasive steering assist, reverse brake assist, and Active Park Assist 2.0 make highway driving and tight parking easier than ever.
