Beyond this addition, the Explorer continues into the 2027 model year with the same great features that have made it a favorite among SUV enthusiasts. Drivers from Kalkaska will appreciate the thoughtful updates that make the 2027 Explorer more appealing than ever.

Performance That Delivers

The Ford Explorer offers two powerful engine options. Choose the turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 300 horsepower for efficient yet spirited performance. This engine provides excellent acceleration and responsiveness while maintaining respectable fuel economy for a vehicle of this size.

For those who want more power, a turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 engine delivers an exhilarating 400 horsepower. This option transforms the Explorer into a true performance machine capable of rapid acceleration and confident passing. Both engines are paired with smooth-shifting transmissions that optimize power delivery.

When it comes to capability, the Explorer comes through. With a maximum towing capacity of 5,000 pounds, you can confidently haul boats, trailers, campers, and recreational equipment to your favorite destinations throughout Leelanau County.

Exterior Design and Interior Comfort

The Ford Explorer makes a strong visual impression with its bold and athletic exterior styling. Clean lines and sculpted surfaces create a modern appearance that looks at home in urban settings and rugged outdoor environments.

Step inside, and you'll discover a comfortable cabin featuring premium soft-touch materials on the center console, door panels, and dashboard. These quality materials elevate the interior atmosphere and provide an appealing environment. Attention to detail is evident throughout the cabin, with thoughtful design elements that enhance both aesthetics and functionality.

Two captain's chairs in the second row offer exceptional comfort for passengers. Getting into the standard third row is easy thanks to a mechanism that moves the second-row seat out of the way at the touch of a button. The interior provides generous cargo space for luggage, sports equipment, groceries, and anything else your family needs.

Advanced Technology

Modern drivers expect cutting-edge tech, and the Ford Explorer delivers. A large 13.2-inch touchscreen comes standard, serving as the command center for entertainment, navigation, and vehicle settings. The intuitive interface responds quickly to inputs and displays information clearly.

Smartphone integration is seamless with standard Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility. This integration keeps you connected and entertained throughout every drive. Audiophiles will appreciate the available 14-speaker Bang & Olufsen audio system upgrade.
