A strong structure serves as the foundation for Explorer capability, along with advanced technology such as the available Intelligent 4WD with Terrain Management System.
And there’s Curve Control, an enhancement to the standard AdvanceTrac with Roll Stability Control and its road-hugging capability. Inside, the Explorer provides seating for seven. When carrying things takes priority, the rear seats fold down for cargo space on demand – up to 80.7 cubic feet.
Available Intelligent 4WD continuously monitors wheel speed, throttle position and steering angle to determine the vehicle’s conditions and driver’s intent.
The system then determines the optimal amount of front and rear torque for the given conditions to not only reduce wheelslip but to prevent the slip from occurring in the first place, which helps keep the vehicle sure-footed on virtually any terrain.
Advanced materials and assembly processes help ensure that the structure of the Explorer is both strong for durability and lightweight for efficiency. The A- and B-pillars are constructed of high-strength boron steel for greatly increased roof crush strength. The front-end support structure features technology employing a lightweight composite that enhances lateral stiffness while reducing weight.
The Explorer can carry up to seven passengers. The 2nd row features a 60/40 split-fold-flat bench, while the 3rd row has a 50/50 split-folding seat with generous passenger space. Behind the 3rd row, there are up to 21 cubic feet of cargo volume. For more cargo space, up to 80.7 cubic feet, fold the 2nd and 3rd rows for a flat load surface.
