If you consider yourself something of a modern-day explorer, then you’re going to need the kind of car that can take you places. The 2021 Ford Explorer does just that: it’s athletic, family-friendly, and the perfect blend of rugged and refined to take you to all kinds of places.

Different Trims for Different Lifestyles

Whether it’s just a quick drive to soccer practice or hitting the open road for a weekend getaway, you need a car to suit your needs. The rugged Timberline has got steel underbody skid plates, heated seats, and improved ground clearance, making it perfect for an adventure into mountainous terrain.

The ST, meanwhile, is the optimal blend of sporty and functional, with striking accents and details to match its bold performance. Interested in a hybrid? The Explorer boasts the only hybrid in its class that can tow up to 5,000 pounds, plus it’s fully capable off-road.

Room for the Whole Family

The simple, handsome cabin is roomy and quiet. With seven seats available, everyone can stretch out in the Explorer, plus E-Z entry makes it easy to get in and out. If you don’t need that kind of space, you can always fold the rear seats down to make room for cargo. Other attractive features in the cabin include a twin-panel moonroof, automatic climate control, and multicontour front seats with a massage function.

Impressive Technology From Ford

Ford’s SYNC 3 infotainment system is easy to learn and use, and comes standard with features like an 8-inch touch screen, satellite radio, and Apple CarPlay, Android Auto. Fans of larger screens can grab an available 10.1-inch touch screen with a portrait layout and 12.3-inch customizable driver display. Family road trip? Blast your favorite playlist with a dynamite 14-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system, or give the kids some time off with a rear-seat entertainment system.

Ford’s Co-Pilot360 driver-assist suite offers some comforting additional support while you’re on the road, and most of the impressive features come standard: lane keep assist, blind-spot monitoring, pedestrian detection, and driver drowsiness monitoring are among them. Upgrades will see you get adaptive cruise control, perpendicular and parallel park assist, and evasive steering assist.

Prices for Every Budget

Enjoy a wallet-friendly starting price of around $32k when you go for the standard explorer. Despite its ranking as the base model, you can still enjoy a spacious, functional SUV that does everything you need it to do.

Expect those numbers to climb with the different models; the top-of-the-line Platinum starts at roughly $54,000 and can still go up with additional features. So for those looking to go all-out for touches of luxury and creature comforts, the Explorer has you covered.  Speaking of costs, an EPA of 21 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway gives you better fuel economy than many other SUVs on the market.

Packaged in a striking, athletic body that’s bound to turn heads, the Explorer offers a versatile, comfortable SUV experience that really does have something for everyone. Are you ready to get your hands on one? Visit us at Conway Ford in Conway, SC, today.
