Dealer Comments
The 2026 Ford Explorer ST stands out for its impressive long-term ownership value, combining a reputation for reliability, strong residuals, and a robust feature set. This SUV is powered by a 3.0L EcoBoost V6 engine paired to a 10-speed automatic transmission and 4WD, designed to deliver years of confident performance. Its Vapor Blue Metallic exterior and Onyx interior add a modern, appealing touch that holds up well in both daily commutes and family adventures.
Pragmatic SUV shoppers who prioritize durability, comfort, and technology will find the Explorer ST a compelling option. With heated and ventilated Miko Suede Captain's Chairs, a third-row bench, and advanced connectivity features, it suits families and professionals alike. In regions like Lakeland, FL, its four-wheel drive and rain-sensing wipers provide peace of mind during unpredictable weather, while the power liftgate and split folding rear seat support active lifestyles and frequent cargo hauling.
The Explorer ST's performance is underpinned by its proven 3.0L EcoBoost V6, recognized for its long-term reliability and consistent power delivery. The 10-speed automatic transmission ensures smooth shifts and adapts well to various driving conditions, from city traffic to highway cruising. Its 4WD setup is engineered for extended service life, making it a dependable choice for owners who keep vehicles well beyond the initial years, especially when frequent family trips or towing needs are expected.
Safety is integral to the SUV's value proposition. Standard features like ABS, traction control, dual front and side impact airbags, knee airbags, and an emergency communication system work together to protect both occupants and investment. The inclusion of BlueCruise Equipped (1-Year + 90-Day Plan), an exterior parking camera, auto high-beam headlights, and rain-sensing wipers further enhance daily confidence, reducing the risk of costly incidents and contributing to lower long-term ownership costs.
Inside, the Explorer ST impresses with its Sun and Sound Package, a heated steering wheel, heated rear seats, and a premium 10-speaker audio system. The Navigation System and Ford Connectivity Package (one-Time Purchase - 7 Years) ensure drivers stay connected and informed. Features like Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, automatic temperature control, memory seat, and a power liftgate simplify daily routines, while the advanced security system and remote keyless entry offer additional peace of mind.
When compared to segment rivals like the Chevrolet Traverse and Honda Pilot, the Explorer ST distinguishes itself with its turbocharged engine and advanced standard features. While all three offer three-row versatility, the Explorer's performance-oriented ST trim provides a more engaging drive and a higher level of cabin tech. Its reputation for durability and strong resale value can translate to lower depreciation and smarter economics over a multi-year ownership period.
What is the fuel economy of this SUV? The Explorer ST is rated at 18 MPG city and 25 MPG highway, supporting cost-effective long-distance travel. Is Ford a reliable brand for long-term ownership? Ford’s large SUV lineup, especially in the ST trim, is known for powertrain durability and consistent resale value.
