2027 Ford Explorer: Power, Comfort & Capability

Life deserves a little thrill, and the 2027 Ford Explorer is designed to bring more excitement to everyday driving. With standard Intelligent 4WD, available turbocharged performance, three-row seating, and more than 2,400 litres of cargo capacity, it blends family-friendly practicality with genuine capability. Whether you're commuting across Etobicoke, heading into the GTA, or planning a weekend escape, the Explorer gives you plenty of reasons to enjoy the drive.

Power That Fits Your Lifestyle

The 2027 Ford Explorer gives drivers two EcoBoost engine options. The standard 2.3-litre EcoBoost I-4 produces 300 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. For drivers looking for more muscle, the available twin-turbo 3.0-litre EcoBoost V6 produces up to 400 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque.

The 3.0-litre engine is standard on the Explorer ST and available on Tremor and Platinum models, giving shoppers a way to match performance with their preferred SUV personality. The ST adds a sport-tuned suspension, performance brakes, and 21-inch wheels, while the Tremor brings off-road-tuned suspension, increased ride height, underbody protection, and a model-exclusive Torsen limited-slip rear axle.

Confident Capability, Wherever You Go

Every Explorer includes standard Intelligent 4WD, helping provide added traction when roads become slippery or terrain gets more challenging. Six available drive modes, including Normal, Eco, Sport, Tow/Haul, Slippery, and either Trail or Off-Road depending on the model, let you tailor the SUV to different driving conditions.

Towing capability is another Explorer strength. The standard Class III Trailer Tow Package allows every model to tow up to 2,267 kg (5,000 lbs). Trailer Sway Control and Side-Wind Stabilization are also standard, adding useful support when you're towing a camper, trailer, or recreational equipment.

Three Rows With Room to Adapt

The Explorer is built to accommodate up to seven passengers, making it a natural fit for families and active households. Its flexible cabin can also make room for plenty of gear, with over 2,400 litres of available cargo capacity.

Depending on the model, available PowerFold third-row seats make it easier to switch between passenger and cargo duty. Heated front-row seats are available, while higher trims can add premium seating surfaces, ventilated seats, and even multicontour front seats with Active Motion massaging.

Technology That Keeps You Connected

Inside, the 2027 Explorer puts modern technology within easy reach. Its available Ford Connectivity Package adds features such as unlimited Wi-Fi connectivity, Google Maps, voice assistance, and entertainment options that can help keep passengers occupied while parked.

Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility make it easy to bring familiar smartphone features into the SUV. The Ford Digital Experience also allows drivers to create personalized profiles, connect compatible phones and keys, access Google Maps destinations, and download select apps through Google Play. Available Ford BlueCruise adds another layer of convenience with hands-free highway driving on compatible roads, making longer trips easier to manage.

Designed to Look the Part

The Explorer's exterior combines a confident SUV stance with model-specific styling. All-LED headlamps help illuminate the road ahead, while LED taillamps and a light bar appliqué give the rear a distinctive appearance.

There are also plenty of ways to personalize the look. Wheel choices range from the standard 18-inch wheels on Active models to available 21-inch designs on select trims. The ST Sinister Package adds an even darker appearance for drivers looking to give their Explorer a more distinctive visual character.
