Miles Overview
The 2026 Ford Explorer is a three-row midsize SUV that competes with the Honda Pilot, Toyota Highlander, and Kia Telluride. The ST and Platinum models deliver strong acceleration and confident handling for a three-row SUV, with the ST's sport-tuned suspension a highlight. The ride is firm on performance trims, which is the price of their agility, but standard models are composed and quiet on the highway. The cabin offers a large touchscreen and comfortable seating for seven, though third-row space is tight for adults. The Active is the base Explorer, giving you the same 2.3L engine as the ST-Line and Tremor but skipping the sporty styling and off-road gear. Its 2.3L EcoBoost I-4 Engine makes 300 horsepower and pairs with a ten-speed automatic, delivering 24 mpg combined in rear-drive form. The Active Comfort Package adds a heated steering wheel and remote start, which are nice upgrades for cold mornings.
