Miles Overview
The 2021 Explorer is Ford's three-row family SUV, slotting between the Edge and the Expedition with a choice of rear- or all-wheel drive. It competes with the Toyota Highlander, Honda Pilot, and Kia Telluride, offering more engine choices than most. The Explorer handles well for a large SUV, with responsive steering and a composed ride on the highway. The cabin offers generous passenger and cargo space, though some owners find lower trims a bit basic inside. Ford Co-Pilot360 safety tech is standard, and the available SYNC 3 infotainment is easy to use. Heated and ventilated front seats, real wood trim, and standard all-wheel drive set the Platinum apart from the Limited below it. The 3.0L V6 makes 365 horsepower and pairs with the ten-speed automatic and all-wheel drive, giving the Explorer a smooth, effortless feel on the highway. The Platinum is the only trim available as a hybrid, which trades a bit of cargo space for better fuel economy around town.
