Those in the Detroit, Sterling Heights, and Warren, MI, areas who need an SUV with three rows of seating, but want to also make sure they have a safe and efficient ride as they drive, will want to consider the 2021 Ford Explorer.

To find out why this may just be the model for you, our Crest Ford team takes a detailed look at the Ford Explorer to show you what it's capable of and the various features it has that help provide a comfortable and safe journey wherever you go.  

Performance Capabilities

With multiple powertrains to choose from, you can build your new Explorer to match the exact type of performance you need. If you will just be commuting around the area and taking the occasional road trip, the standard 2.3L turbocharged EcoBoost® I-4 engine and 10-speed automatic transmission will provide you with smooth driving, along with the power and efficiency you want.

Ford Explorer Towing Capacity

Plan on towing with your Ford Explorer? When properly equipped, you can pull along 5,600 pounds with the available 3.0L twin-turbocharged EcoBoost® V6 engine that creates up to 400 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque. Paired with the Intelligent 4-wheel drive (4WD), too, this powertrain helps you travel over any terrain in your Ford Explorer.

Ford Explorer MPG

There is even an available hybrid engine with the Ford Explorer. This hybrid powertrain, which has enough strength to tow 5,000 pounds when properly equipped, will provide efficient performance as it helps the 2021 Explorer get an EPA-estimated 23 city/26 highway MPG.

Enjoy a More Confident Driving Experience

Wherever you are traveling, the 2021 Ford Explorer is ready to help make sure you get there safely. Equipped with Ford Co-Pilot360â„¢, the Explorer comes standard with:

  • BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System)
  • Lane-Keeping System
  • Automatic Emergency Braking

By keeping you alert and automatically taking action when needed, these systems make sure you stay safely centered while driving, keep away from potential frontal collisions, and know when it's clear to change lanes.

You can even get available Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control, which will keep you traveling safely along the highway, since it can automatically maintain enough distance between you and the car you are following. You can even have the 2021 Explorer park itself! With available Active Park Assist 2.0, all you need to do is put the car in neutral and push a button and the vehicle will do the rest as it navigates its way into the open space.
