2021 Ford Explorer Review

2021 Ford Explorer Review

2021 Ford Explorer

If you’re looking for a new set of wheels that can take you on brand-new escapades, the Ford Explorer is the SUV for you. After all, its name didn’t come from anywhere. This lively and capable model allows you and up to six friends to explore the Palm Coast, Florida, area in a brand-new (and exciting) way.

To see what we mean, the team at Palm Coast Ford had created this 2021 Ford Explorer review, giving you a sneak peek at what this SUV has to offer. Will its power, capability, and spacious interior be calling your name by the end of this article? There’s only one way to find out.


2021 Explorer Performance: Test the Limits

Ford Explorer Engine SpecsThe Ford Explorer was engineered to be your getaway machine, giving you an exciting performance that is equally smooth and capable.

First of all, you’ll have your choice of three engines, all offering something unique to suit different driving needs.

  • 2.3L EcoBoost®: This turbocharged engine comes standard in the 2021 Explorer generating a robust 300 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. This lets you tow up to 5,300 pounds when properly equipped with an EPA-estimated fuel economy of 27 city/29 highway MPG.
  • 3.0L EcoBoost® V6: Need more oomph? This twin-turbocharged engine boasts up to 400 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque, perfect for off-roading and towing. When properly equipped, it can tow up to 5,600 pounds, the most towing capacity available for the Explorer.
  • 3.3L Hybrid: For greener driving without sacrificing power, opt for the available hybrid engine that gives you a total system horsepower of 318 and up to 322 lb-ft of torque. This means you can tow up to 5,000 pounds with the proper equipment while saving money when filling up the tank.

All engines of the Explorer come paired with a responsive 10-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. For extra traction and control, especially off the pavement, Intelligent 4WD (four-wheel drive) is available.


Ford Explorer Versatility: Adaptive to Your Daily Life

Ford Explorer Trunk SpaceThough the performance of the 2021 Ford Explorer lets you seamlessly glide from city streets and highway roads to more challenging terrains, the SUV in all is also incredibly versatile. Whether you’re traveling with the kids or heading on a solo adventure, it has the features to accommodate.

  • Cargo Sky Box: The Explorer is incredibly spacious boasting up to 87.8 cubic feet of cargo when the rear seats are folded down. But when that’s not enough space, opt for the available roof box. This is great for adventure equipment, extra luggage, and more.
  • E-Z Entry Second Row: With three rows of seats, you and your family and friends have ample room inside the Explorer. Hopping in is a breeze, too, thanks to E-Z Entry second-row seating. Just pull a lever, and you’ll be sliding inside before you know it.
  • PowerFold® 50/50 Fold-Flat Rear Seat Backs: Planning a weekend escape? There’s plenty of room inside for your gear, and with the PowerFold® feature, loading up is incredibly easy. With the hands-free foot-activated liftgate, loading and unloading your cargo area is a breeze, too.

See What Else the 2021 Ford Explorer Has in Store for You

While we have proven the Ford Explorer is capable and versatile, there is so much more to learn about this model. At Palm Coast Ford, we think the best way to do that is to get behind the wheel for yourself.

Take the Explorer out on the roads of Palm Coast, FL, when you schedule a test drive with our dealership. Once you’re behind the wheel, we know you’re not going to want to leave.
