Description
Designed for families, commuters, and weekend explorers alike, this 2026 Ford Explorer Active 4WD finished in sleek Agate Black Metallic delivers the versatility and technology that made the Explorer One of Americas most trusted SUVs. With confident capability and modern connectivity, its built to handle daily life across the Midwest with ease.
Under the hood, the responsive 2.3L EcoBoost® engine pairs with a smooth 10-speed automatic transmission, delivering strong performance and impressive efficiency for a three-Row SUV. The intelligent four-wheel-drive system adds traction and confidence through changing seasons, making the Explorer just as comfortable in winter conditions as it is on summer road trips.
Inside, the spacious cabin welcomes passengers with durable Space Gray ActiveX seating, blending comfort with easy-to-maintain practicality. Heated front seats and a heated steering wheel bring welcome warmth during cold Michigan mornings, while tri-zone automatic climate control ensures passengers in every Row stay comfortable.
The flexible interior layout includes third-Row 50/50 fold-flat seating, allowing the Explorer to quickly adapt between passenger duty and cargo hauling. Both the power driver seat and power passenger seat make it easy to find the perfect position for longer drives.
Technology is front and center thanks to the expansive 13.2-inch touchscreen SYNC® system, working alongside the 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and Fords Digital Experience interface. Connectivity is seamless through FordPass Connect, while remote start and a convenient power liftgate make everyday errands easier.
Driver confidence is strengthened by the advanced Ford Co-Pilot360 Assist+ system, which includes Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Centering Assist to help reduce fatigue during longer highway drives. A rear view camera and selectable drive modes further enhance everyday usability.
Daily life around southern Michigan might take this Explorer through Tecumseh, Clinton, and Brooklyn, cruising along M-50, US-127, and M-34 across Lenawee County, Jackson County, and Hillsdale County. When the road stretches south, trips continue through Napoleon, Wauseon, and Bryan along US-24, OH-66, and OH-108 across Henry County, Fulton County, and Williams County, before heading west into Indiana through Angola, Auburn, and Warsaw along I-69, US-30, and IN-15 across Steuben County, DeKalb County, and Kosciusko County.
Because Everything We Do Is Driven By You.
