A Look That Feels Natural Anywhere
The exterior design of the Explorer feels clean and athletic. It stands out without trying too hard. Sporty trims like ST Line and ST add bold touches. The new Tremor trim brings a more rugged look with added ride height and off road details. This makes it a good fit for gravel roads and winter conditions. From town parking lots to country roads, it always looks at home.
A Cabin Made for Together Time
Inside, the Explorer is designed for people and gear. Seating for up to seven passengers is available. Families and friends fit comfortably.

Safety That Supports Every Drive
Safety features work quietly in the background. Driver assist systems help monitor traffic and lane position. Braking support helps reduce stress in sudden situations. These features are designed to assist rather than overwhelm. Winter driving around Lucknow or highway trips near Kincardine feel more controlled. Peace of mind is always present.
Built for Ontario Roads
