About this vehicle
The 2026 Ford Explorer ST envelops occupants in a sensory-rich experience, beginning with its sophisticated Vapor Blue Metallic exterior and Onyx interior that invite a sense of modern luxury before you even open the door. Drivers seeking executive presence and everyday indulgence will appreciate the Explorer ST's blend of performance and sophistication. The Onyx interior, accented by memory seating and heated front and rear seats, ensures both driver and passengers enjoy true comfort in all seasons. In regions like Lakeland, FL, where summer heat and sudden rain showers are common, conveniences such as the heated steering wheel and rain-sensing wipers make a tangible difference in daily driving. The third-row bench and power liftgate provide versatility for families and professionals alike, while the intuitive navigation system elevates every journey with seamless guidance. The heart of this SUV is a 3.0L EcoBoost V6 paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission, delivering power in a manner that prioritizes smoothness and acoustic quiet. Acceleration feels effortless, with minimal intrusion from the outside world, and four-wheel drive ensures confident traction whether merging onto highways or navigating inclement weather. The finely tuned independent suspension and speed-sensitive steering contribute to a composed, controlled ride, suppressing vibrations and road noise for an executive-level driving experience that remains serene even over rougher surfaces. Safety in the Explorer ST is engineered to work seamlessly in the background, reinforcing its premium appeal. BlueCruise hands-free driving (1-Year + 90-Day Plan) and Ford Connectivity Package integration provide advanced driver assistance that reduces fatigue on long trips, while adaptive auto high-beam headlights and rain-sensing wipers automatically respond to changing conditions. The suite of active safety features—such as ABS, electronic stability control, emergency communication via 911 Assist, and a comprehensive array of airbags—operates silently, enhancing peace of mind without interrupting the calm of the cabin. A rearview camera and parking sensors further enhance everyday usability and confidence. Premium features are abundant throughout, beginning with the Equipment Group 400A Standard Package and extending to the Sun and Sound Package for a truly immersive environment. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto offer seamless smartphone integration, while the AM/FM radio with SiriusXM 360L keeps entertainment options fresh. The cabin is climate-controlled with dual-zone front A/C, rear air conditioning, and automatic temperature adjustment. Within the premium SUV segment, the Explorer ST distinguishes itself against alternatives like the Chevrolet Traverse RS and Dodge Durango R/T by emphasizing interior craftsmanship and advanced technology. What premium materials are used in the interior? The Explorer ST features heated and ventilated Miko Suede captain's chairs, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and carefully selected Onyx trim, contributing to a sense of modern craftsmanship. How quiet is the cabin? The SUV's independent suspension, laminated glass, and extensive sound insulation create a hushed environment, even at highway speeds.
