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. The Base Explorer skips the extras like cloth seats and an 8-inch touchscreen, keeping the price down while still giving you the same spacious three-row layout. Its 2.3L I4 makes 270 horsepower and pairs with an automatic transmission driving the rear wheels, returning 24 mpg combined.
