Ford Explorer

Take the quiz · 21

The sixth-generation Ford Explorer is more powerful, comfortable, sporty and spacious in all three rows, thanks to Ford's new flexible rear-wheel-drive architecture. The strengths of the all-new Ford Explorer were showcased today at a special event for employees, fans, dealers, suppliers, government officials and media at Ford Field in Detroit, where Ford demonstrated how it can help American families get the most out of their road trips.

Ford's approach to the Explorer has always been built on three core elements: capability, comfort and design. The new rear-wheel-drive architecture allows improvements from bumper to bumper, including a more athletic exterior, enhanced capability and better passenger accommodations in the Ford Explorer.
