Ford Explorer Performance Specs

One thing is for sure: You have plenty of engine choices when it comes to the 2020 Explorer. Plus, with the all-new rear-wheel drive maximizing performance, drives in this Ford SUV are simply more fun. The entry-level turbocharged 4-cylinder engine generates 300 horsepower, but if you’re craving more power, you’ll want to consider upgrading to one of the V6 engines.

There’s a turbocharged V6 capable of making 365 horsepower and a more powerful V6 on the ST trim which offers 415 lb-ft of torque and 400 horsepower.

The new Terrain Management System is great to have, too. This available system can help you on any adventure, with up to seven selectable drive modes. Pick one right from the dial in the center console, and traverse over wet grass, snow, sand, and whatever else life may throw at you.

Explorer Technology Features

Equipped with smart features designed to ready you for any adventure, the Ford Explorer has the tech you need when you need it. The available SYNC® 3 system uses voice-activated technology to give you more control without taking your hands off the wheel. The 8-inch touchscreen is capable, though the crown jewel, a 10.1-inch screen, gives the cabin a sleek look and the ability to control your phone via Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™.

Drive with confidence using standard driver-assistance technology, like:

• Lane-Keeping System
• Automatic Emergency Braking
• Auto High-Beam Headlamps

Plus, there are additional optional features with Ford Co-Pilot360™, like Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control and Evasive Steering Assist. The 2020 Ford Explorer can feel like your home away from home thanks to all the standard and available tech features you’ll have access to.

A Range of Seating Options

The standard seating setup in the 2020 Explorer means you’ll have room for six passengers, though it can be equipped to seat seven. The available third-row PowerFold® seats conveniently accommodate passengers and cargo. When you don’t have any passengers, the seats can be folded for up to 87.8 cubic feet of cargo space–more than enough room for luggage, groceries, and hiking gear.

Even if you have a car seat in place, the E-Z Entry second-row seating makes it easy to get in and get out. Rear seat passengers can navigate their way in and out at the press of a button.
