About this vehicle
The 2026 Ford Explorer ST is designed for families who need space, flexibility, and modern safety for daily routines and weekend getaways. Its three-row layout makes fitting multiple car seats easy, while the power liftgate and generous cargo area simplify stowing strollers, sports gear, or groceries for growing households. The Space White Metallic exterior and Onyx interior give the SUV a stylish presence that comfortably fits family life. Parents managing busy school runs, carpools, and trips to Lakeland’s parks will find the Explorer ST’s cabin and seating ideal for young children and teens alike. The bench-style third row accommodates extra passengers, while heated front and rear seats keep everyone comfortable year-round. With Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, keeping kids entertained and navigation stress-free is simple, no matter the destination or weather. A 3.0L EcoBoost V6 paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission delivers smooth acceleration even with a full cabin, and the 4WD system inspires confidence on family road trips or in wet conditions. EPA city fuel economy of 18 MPG and highway rating of 25 MPG balance daily driving needs with longer adventures, ensuring fewer stops and less hassle. The Explorer remains composed on highways, offering quiet, relaxed travel for all occupants. Protecting what matters most, the Explorer comes equipped with advanced safety features. Dual front and side-impact airbags, knee and overhead airbags, and an occupant sensing system provide comprehensive coverage throughout the cabin. A rearview camera, rain-sensing wipers, auto high-beam headlights, and Ford’s 911 Assist emergency communication system add layers of peace of mind. Active stability control, ABS brakes, and electronic traction systems work together to help prevent accidents before they happen. Convenience and comfort features include the Sun and Sound Package, navigation system, BlueCruise equipped (1-Year + 90-Day Plan), and Ford Connectivity Package for seamless tech integration. The power liftgate, heated steering wheel, memory seating, and ventilated front seats make everyday use easy, while remote keyless entry and split folding rear seats enable quick reconfigurations for cargo or passengers. Automatic temperature control and tri-zone A/C keep everyone comfortable on the move. Compared to other three-row SUVs like the Chevrolet Traverse and Honda Pilot, the Explorer ST stands out with its robust EcoBoost V6 performance, advanced connectivity features, and sporty design. The Explorer’s BlueCruise hands-free driving capability and heated seating in both rows deliver extra comfort and stress reduction during family travel. Its flexible seating and thoughtful amenities make it especially competitive for active families. How many car seats fit in the back? The Explorer’s three-row configuration accommodates multiple child seats, especially in the second row. Is this SUV safe for kids and teens? Yes; coverage includes side and overhead airbags, stability systems, and a rearview camera for added visibility. Does it have a rear-seat reminder? While not specified, its tech suite includes many driver-assist features. What warranty coverage is included?
