The Explorer Active comes equipped with a 2.3L EcoBoost I-4 engine paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive, providing responsive power while achieving 20 mpg in the city and 27 mpg on the highway. This combination ensures you can handle daily commutes and weekend adventures with confidence and efficiency.
Inside the cabin, you'll find thoughtfully designed comfort features including heated captain's chairs in the front row, automatic climate control with front dual-zone and rear air conditioning, and intuitive steering wheel-mounted audio controls. The power-adjustable driver's seat and telescoping steering wheel accommodate drivers of all sizes, while the split-folding rear seat offers flexibility for cargo and passengers.
Technology integration keeps you connected with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility, plus SiriusXM satellite radio with 360L service. Ford Pass remote start functionality allows you to warm up or cool down your vehicle before you step outside, and the navigation system helps guide you to your destination with precision.
Safety is a priority with comprehensive airbag protection, electronic stability control with traction control assistance, four-wheel independent suspension, and an exterior parking camera to aid visibility when backing up. The 911 Assist emergency communication system provides added peace of mind, while antilock four-wheel disc brakes with brake assist technology deliver confident stopping power.
The gray exterior is complemented by power door mirrors with heating elements and fully automatic headlights with delay-off functionality. Alloy wheels and a spoiler contribute to the Active's contemporary appearance, while the rear window wiper and speed-sensitive wipers ensure clear visibility in varying weather conditions.

Love it.

Single guy looking for a vehicle that is fun to drive but can haul junk too, and this fits the bill. I came from a 2018 Lincoln MKZ 3.0t AWD, this has all the same features but this does it better. Mine had one minor panel issue the dealership is fixing, but otherwise everything is solid. Installed a BOV, I find it funny to blow past people with a quiet exhaust and a loud Spanish sound as they disappear into the distance. Fantastic nighttime viability over the lower trims. Actually just better over all than the lower trims. Bolt ons and a tune just puts this in its own league for the price you pay, the only thing that comes close is a 2026 dodge Durango RT 392. ST is not for everyone but it is for me. "Sporty" family hauler my butt. Wrong demographic. This is a genuine fast mid-sized SUZ that you'd have to go luxury to get close to the performance numbers otherwise. - 5.0

I love the suv its fantastic to drive only issue I have is the wind noise in the driver seat but I'd sleep in it every night the seats are comfortable.
