Description
This 2026 Ford Explorer Active 4WD in Carbonized Gray Metallic is built for the kind of driver who doesnt want to get through the day, they want to run it. The 2.3L EcoBoost® I-4 paired to a 10-speed automatic delivers that smooth, confident pull that makes merging feel effortless and passing feel clean, whether youre easing out of Canton before the world wakes up or pushing through the stop-and-go mess around Jackson when traffic turns into a group project nobody agreed to.
Cold starts stop being personal when youve got remote start and heated front seats ready to go, and when Michigan weather decides to be dramatic, 4WD keeps your rhythm steady instead of tense. Slide onto I-94, cut down US-127, or take the longer sweep along M-52, and the Explorer stays composed through Wayne County, Ingham County, and Eaton County like stability is just part of the personality.
Inside, its built to feel modern without feeling like a gadget show. SYNC® keeps everything clean and quick, the power driver seat lets you lock in your perfect position fast, and the cabin feels like a calm control room even when your schedule is trying to start a fight. And when life gets hands-full (because it always does), the power liftgate makes loading up groceries, sports gear, or work equipment feel like One smooth motion instead of a wrestling match.
The confidence tech shows up the way it should: quietly. Ford Co-Pilot360 Assist+ adds that smarter highway help when lanes get crowded and people get unpredictable, while the rear view camera makes tight parking lots and rushed drop-offs way less annoying than they deserve to be.
And the best part is how naturally it stretches your world. One minute youre flowing past Ann Arbor, the next youre cruising toward the Ohio line with US-23 doing its thing, and suddenly youre cutting through Perrysburg on a clean run that makes Lucas County feel closer than it has any right to. Keep rolling and youll find yourself slipping past Bowling Green without breaking the vibe, letting I-75 carry you like the day is finally cooperating.
Then Indiana opens up in that were actually doing this way. The Explorer stays relaxed as the miles stack up toward Fort Wayne, and when the map pulls you toward Auburn or out near Angola, it still feels like the same composed drive, just with a bigger horizon. I-69 and US-30 make the pace feel clean through Allen County, DeKalb County, and Steuben County, and the whole point becomes obvious: this SUV doesnt drain you, it keeps you in control.
Because Everything We Do Is Driven By You.
