Every drive feels controlled and composed, backed by electronic stability control, traction control, and a four-wheel independent suspension that absorbs road imperfections gracefully.

    Inside, the cabin welcomes six passengers across three rows with the flexibility to adapt to your lifestyle. The split-folding rear seats allow you to maximize cargo space or accommodate additional passengers, and the second-row HVAC controls ensure everyone travels in comfort. The front bucket seats are power-adjustable, while the heated steering wheel adds warmth during cold months. Ambient lighting creates an inviting atmosphere, and the tilt and telescoping steering wheel allows customization for your preferred driving position.

    Technology keeps you connected and informed. The navigation system provides turn-by-turn guidance, while Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration lets you access your phone's apps safely. SiriusXM 360L satellite radio with 360L programming keeps you entertained across thousands of miles. Steering wheel-mounted audio controls keep your hands where they belong, and the trip computer tracks fuel economy and vehicle statistics.

    Safety is paramount on every journey. The Explorer Active includes dual front and side impact airbags, knee airbags, and overhead airbags positioned throughout the cabin. The 911 Assist emergency communication system connects you with help when needed. Four-wheel disc brakes with ABS and a rear parking camera with reference lines give you confidence maneuvering in tight spaces. Electronic stability control and traction control work continuously to maintain grip and prevent skids.

    The 2026 Explorer Active in Star White Metallic Tri-Coat combines practicality with refined styling. The body-color bumpers and spoiler integrate seamlessly with the vehicle's proportions. Heated power-adjustable mirrors, variably intermittent wipers, and fully automatic headlights with delay-off features eliminate small daily frustrations.

      Single guy looking for a vehicle that is fun to drive but can haul junk too, and this fits the bill. I came from a 2018 Lincoln MKZ 3.0t AWD, this has all the same features but this does it better. Mine had one minor panel issue the dealership is fixing, but otherwise everything is solid. Installed a BOV, I find it funny to blow past people with a quiet exhaust and a loud Spanish sound as they disappear into the distance. Fantastic nighttime viability over the lower trims. Actually just better over all than the lower trims. Bolt ons and a tune just puts this in its own league for the price you pay, the only thing that comes close is a 2026 dodge Durango RT 392. ST is not for everyone but it is for me. "Sporty" family hauler my butt. Wrong demographic. This is a genuine fast mid-sized SUZ that you'd have to go luxury to get close to the performance numbers otherwise.
