Adventure Beckons in the 2025 Ford Explorer

When adventure calls, how will you answer? The 2025 Ford Explorer delivers the power, utility, and comfort to make every journey more fun, whether it's across town or across the continent.

Brings Along Everyone and Everything

The 2025 Explorer has plenty of room for the whole family and their gear. With three rows of seating available, the Explorer can accommodate up to 7 passengers, so nobody has to stay behind. The available PowerFold third-row seat makes configuring the Explorer for more passengers or added cargo easy and quick, and the standard power liftgate makes accessing the cargo compartment very convenient.

The Explorer is also a cargo-carrying champion. With a jaw-dropping 46 cubic feet of cargo volume behind the second row, there's room for bags and belongings galore inside. And with a towing capacity of up to 5,000 pounds and Ford's Class III Tow Package included with every trim, the family boat or camper can come along with ease.

Comfort in Every Seat

The Explorer's cavernous interior ensures there's plenty of room for every rider to stretch out, which makes even long journeys comfortable. And with standard heated seats in the first row and available heating for second-row seats, even chilly mornings give Explorer families nothing to fear. Available leather trim adds a feeling of lushness and luxury to every ride. Standard privacy glass aft of the B pillar helps keep prying eyes at bay.

The driver's seat may be the most comfortable position of all. The available heated steering wheel and standard 10-way power adjustable seat makes it easy to find your perfect seating position.

Endless Entertainment

With standard wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility and stunning Bang & Olufsen sound systems standard on almost every trim, the Explorer is the perfect vehicle for families who like to jam out together. Every 2025 Explorer is equipped with a 5G LTE Wi-Fi Hotspot modem for the ultimate in connectivity, which is activated with the FordPass Connect system.

Let The Explorer Take the Wheel

Just because you're in the driver's seat, who says you should have to do all the driving? Most trims of the 2025 Explorer are equipped to enable Ford's BlueCruise advanced driver assist software, which lets the driver go hands-free on over 130,000 miles of highway across North America. The result? Lower workload, less tiredness at the end of the drive, and more ability to focus on being with the people you cherish.

Safety Comes Standard

Explorer families sleep soundly at night knowing their SUV is looking out for them. The standard SOS Post-Crash Alert System activates emergency services if the Explorer is involved in a collision, and a full suite of airbags includes knee airbags in front and side curtain airbags to protect outboard riders in the unlikely event of a rollover.

It's time for the next family adventure. Test drive the 2025 Explorer today at Randy Wise Ford in Ortonville, MI.

4 Highlights of the 2025 Ford Expedition

There are lots of features we could highlight in the 2025 Ford Expedition, but we had to narrow this down to a select few. This SUV is roomy, practical, and strong, and it comes in two sizes for people with different needs. 1. The Fantastic Size The standard-sized Expedition allows you to fit your cargo into 22.9, 69.9, or 108.5 cubic feet of space. That's the amount of room behind the third, second, and first rows, respectively. Both the second and third rows can be folded down completely in every trim. The cargo space can vary even more depending on how much cargo and how many passengers you're traveling with. Every seat in the third and second rows can be folded flat independently of the others in some trims, or you can fold down any combination of them together. There's a little more room in the MAX. Behind the third, second, and first rows, in that order, there are 37.4, 84.5, and 123.1 cubic feet of space. more 2. The Excellent Strength The maximum towing capacity of the Expedition varies slightly based on the model you choose. Standard Expedition models can tow up to 6,000 pounds in 4x2 versions and 9,600 pounds in 4x4 models. The Expedition MAX tows up to 6,300 pounds in 4x2 trims and 9,000 pounds if you're driving a 4x4 model. 3. The Great Infotainment Tech Every Expedition and MAX model has a center touchscreen measuring 13.2 inches in size. This infotainment display is equipped with a 5G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot to let you stay online even when you're far from home. SiriusXM with 360L is standard, so everyone driving this car can explore ad-free curated music, news, sports, podcasts, and other forms of talking-based entertainment. If you'd rather listen to your own carefully made playlists, then you can do so by connecting your smartphone to the system and asking it to play songs from the music streaming apps you've got on your phone. You can also do so much more when your phone is connected to the system, including accessing your calendar, checking your voicemail, listening to your text messages, and answering calls. 4. The Comfort The Expedition doesn't cut corners regarding comfort. All trims have a 10-way power-adjustable seat for the driver, giving you an incredible amount of control over your seat's position for maximum comfort. The front seat passenger gets a similar amount of control, as the seat is an 8-way power-adjustable one. The front seats have power lumbar and recline, too. All three rows are spacious enough for all ages to sit in without ending up uncomfortable. These are just the highlights, but there are many more great features you should get to know.
