New 2027 Ford Explorer Platinum
Vehicle Details
Description
Shoppers comparing multiple SUVs will find the Explorer Platinum particularly compelling if they need three-Row versatility, strong all-weather performance, and comfort for both daily commuting and family travel. Its 4WD system instills confidence in changing climates, while the cabin’s three-Row configuration and ActiveX Trimmed Captain’s Chairs enhance both accessibility and comfort. For drivers in regions with unpredictable weather, such as St. Louis, the Explorer’s heated seats, heated steering wheel, and rain-sensing wipers offer daily convenience that’s often reserved for top trims elsewhere.
While some competitors, like the Traverse, offer naturally aspirated V6 engines, the Explorer Platinum’s turbocharged 3.0L EcoBoost® V6 delivers stronger acceleration and more confident passing on highways. Paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission and four-wheel drive, it ensures smooth gear changes and traction across various terrains. The available EPA-estimated fuel economy of 17 city and 22 highway MPG is impressive for a three-Row SUV with this level of power and capability, meaning drivers sacrifice neither efficiency nor performance.
Safety is a core advantage of this SUV, with standard features that many rivals charge extra for. The Explorer Platinum includes ABS brakes, electronic stability control, a rearview camera, and advanced airbags including knee protection for added peace of mind. Active features like automatic high-beam headlights and rain-sensing wipers further enhance visibility and awareness, reducing driver stress in poor weather. Emergency communication via 911 Assist and rear parking sensors are also included as standard, setting a high bar for standard safety technology.
This SUV’s Platinum trim elevates the ownership experience with amenities such as ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and a heated steering wheel-features that contribute to comfort in all climates. The B&O Sound System by Bang & Olufsen with HD and 14 speakers provides immersive audio, while built-in navigation and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto integration keep drivers seamlessly connected. Additional highlights include a power liftgate, memory
