Boldly venturing where other SUVs hesitate, the 2023 Ford Explorer is ready to take on both highways and off-road trails with up to 400 horsepower available and an advanced four-wheel drive system. This edition also comes with a spacious cabin that can accommodate up to seven passengers, many impressive tech and comfort features, and these five favorites that drivers are talking about.

A red 2023 Ford Explorer.

1. Fuel Efficiency Meets Muscle

Although the 2023 edition of the Explorer gives you three stunning engine options to choose from, it’s the 3.3-liter hybrid V6 that offers the best of both worlds, as it delivers both fuel efficiency and muscular performance. Producing an impressive 318 horsepower, this engine helps the vehicle conquer different driving conditions while conserving fuel, with its 27 mpg in estimated combined city/highway mileage and 28 mpg on highways.

2. Infotainment for Everyone

When you need to make hands-free calls, get navigation instructions, or spice up drives with videos, apps, and music, the SYNC 3 infotainment system is ready to accommodate. In addition to offering an available 10.1-inch touchscreen display with pinch-to-zoom capability, this feature can also be controlled using your voice, and it teams perfectly with the available 14-speaker B&O Sound System.

3. A Stress-Free Parking System

Even parking jobs are made simpler with this vehicle, thanks to Active Park Assist 2.0. This intuitive feature lets you choose a parking spot and then takes over steering, braking, and engine torque to move the vehicle into tight spots with ease. Best of all, it can carry out both parallel and perpendicular maneuvers too, taking all the stress out of even the most difficult parking scenarios.

4. Stylish and Comfortable Seats

This edition’s seats are also noteworthy, with multiple premium fabric options available ranging from cloth to leather and plenty of distinctive color schemes to personalize the interior to your style. Take the luxurious Platinum trim’s leather seats, for example, which offer tri-diamond perforated inserts, first-class stitching, and a heating setting for both the first- and second-row seats, as well as a ventilation setting for those in the front row.

5. A 360-Degree Camera System

Having a full view of your surroundings can certainly be helpful when driving off-road, and the multi-camera system offered for this SUV offers 360-degree views for your convenience. You can view multiple angles around the vehicle simultaneously using this feature’s split-screen function, and when connecting to trailers, you can use the colored guidelines on screen to nail the hitching angle just right.
 
While these five favorites are all praiseworthy, they’re simply a sneak preview of all the other impressive features this versatile SUV has to offer.
