Shopping for a midsize SUV can feel challenging with so many choices on the market. The Ford Explorer stands out as a top choice when you compare it to rivals like the Honda Pilot, Toyota Highlander, and Chevy Traverse.
Performance That Leads the Pack
The Ford Explorer brings strong power to every drive across Defiance, OH. The 2.3-liter turbo engine puts out 300 horsepower, which beats the Toyota Highlander with 265 horsepower and matches up well with the Honda Pilot. When it comes to towing, the Explorer can pull up to 5,600 pounds, which tops both the Pilot at 5,000 pounds and the Highlander at 5,000 pounds. Drivers who haul boats, trailers, or campers near Wauseon will love this extra strength.
Interior Space and Comfort
Inside, the Ford Explorer gives riders plenty of room to stretch out. The cabin offers 41.1 inches of front legroom, keeping drivers at ease during long trips beyond Napoleon, OH. Behind the third row, the Explorer provides 18.2 cubic feet of cargo space, beating the Highlander, which has 16 cubic feet. Fold down all the seats, and you open up 87.8 cubic feet for large items like sports gear or luggage. The Ford Explorer seats up to seven, just like its rivals, but uses high-grade materials that look great and hold up well over time. Families will love how easy it is to fold seats flat for large items.
Technology and Safety
Ford packs the Explorer with modern tech that keeps you linked and safe. The SYNC 4 system works fast with a 10.1-inch touch screen and pairs with your phone without hassle, while the Traverse uses an older eight-inch display that can lag. The Explorer also comes with Ford Co-Pilot360, a suite of driver-assist features that includes blind-spot alerts, lane-keep assist, and adaptive cruise control. A 360-degree camera helps with parking in tight spots around Delta, OH.
