While we have a lot of great SUVs on our lot, the Explorer continues to be one of the best options for mid-size and large families. Since it can seat up to seven, it’s spacious, and there’s always room for your crew. You’ll also find forward-thinking tech on the inside, and you’ll have smart safety systems toiling away behind the scenes. You can see what else the Explorer has to offer today at Chris Auffenberg Ford.
While you can stick with the 2.3L EcoBoost I-4 Engine, we prefer the 3.0L EcoBoost V6 Engine. The 2.3L Engine comes in at 300 horsepower and up to 310 lb-ft. of torque, but the 3.0L EcoBoost V6 Engine blows it out of the water with 400 hp and up to 415 lb-ft. of torque. For those who plan on off-roading, there’s the Explorer Tremor. It comes with underbody protection, an off-road tuned suspension, and more so that you can take on any terrain.
Selectable Drive Modes

The Explorer gives your family room to grow, as if you fold down the rear seats, you’ll have access to up to 85.8 cubic feet of cargo space. With available seating for seven, your family will be able to stretch out and relax during the ride. If you need a family SUV and you live near Washington, then the Explorer is one of our strongest contenders.

Depending on your trim, your Explorer may come with the Remote Start System, a Heated Steering Wheel, Active Noise Cancellation, and more. The Explorer offers you a tech-centric cabin, and you’ll have features that will help you kick back and relax.

If you’re into off-roading, then this is an exciting year for the new Explorer. The Explorer Tremor officially joins the line-up, and it comes with underbody protection, all-terrain tires, increased ride height, and more. You’ll find that the other trims of the Explorer are just as new and fresh, as this model received a mid-cycle refresh last year.
Washington drivers continue to choose the Explorer, as it’s one of the most well-rounded SUVs that we offer. It has commendable power, impressive safety features, and it’s roomy enough to accommodate the whole family. If you’re up for a short trip, then Union and St. Louis drivers can stop by Chris Auffenberg today for a complimentary test drive.
