Impressive Features of the 2023 Ford Explorer

May 27, 2023 · 3 min read

The 2023 Ford Explorer is the latest edition of a familiar fan favorite, and it's generated quite a buzz because of its many impressive features. From its jaw-dropping engine performance on and off-road to its spacious cabin and cutting-edge technology, this is one SUV that easily lives up to the hype. For a clearer picture of why it's become so popular among drivers, we've highlighted the following five features that are sure to impress.

1. A 318-HP Hybrid Engine

While this edition of the Explorer provides plenty of impressive engine options, including a powerful 400-horsepower 3.0-liter V6, it's the 3.3-liter hybrid V6 that has generated the most buzz. Not too many hybrid engines in SUVs nowadays can produce as much as 318 horsepower and tow up to 5,000 pounds and yet somehow do all this while still offering an estimated 28 mpg in highway mileage.

2. An Infotainment System

SYNC 3, which comes with an available 10.1-inch touchscreen, is an infotainment system that lets you pair your phone to it using Bluetooth technology. Not only can you use this system to get navigation instructions, make hands-free phone calls, or control smart home devices with its Ford+Alexa app compatibility, but listening to music through it sounds great when teaming it with the available 14-speaker B&O sound system.

3. Adaptive Cruise Control

While traditional cruise controls allow you to select a preferred speed you'd like to stay at while on highways, the Adaptive Cruise Control offered for this edition takes things a step further. After setting that speed, this system will not only keep the vehicle there when the road is clear in front of you, but it will also slow the vehicle down or completely stop if necessary and then pick up speed again when it's safe to do so.

4. Comfortable Seating

The 2023 Explorer's seats were all designed with opulence, comfort, and convenience in mind, whether we're talking about those in the front row or those in the rear of the cabin. Up front, the available leather-trimmed seats offer Active Motion, which is a massaging feature that has up to five different massage modes available, while the PowerFold third-row seat and E-Z Entry second-row seats in the rear can be easily moved out of the way to accommodate passengers and cargo.

5. Active Park Assist 2.0

When you come across a parking space that you're having trouble maneuvering into, the Explorer's Active Park Assist 2.0 feature can simplify this process for you. All you have to do is indicate where you'd like to park, and this system will then do the rest for you by controlling steering, movement, and braking, and it can do this in parallel and perpendicular parking scenarios as well.

Although the performance, tech, and comfort features covered here are all noteworthy, they're merely a preview of all the 2023 Explorer's many impressive offerings. To see everything else it has to offer from up close, call us or stop in today to take it for a test drive at Geweke Ford.
