Ford Explorer Trims Overview in Windsor, CT

The new Ford Explorer is an SUV that will exceed the expectations of many families. If you'd like to make sure you end up with the features you need, the Explorer is available in eight distinct trim levels at Mitchell Selig Ford. Look at what each trim offers so you can start the process of deciding which one belongs in your driveway.

Ford Explorer Base

A turbocharged four-cylinder engine comes standard, allowing the base Explorer to create 300 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque. This entry-level model arrives very nicely equipped, giving you LED headlights, a power-adjustable driver's seat, tri-zone automatic climate control, and more. There are many desirable tech features found here, including an 8-inch touchscreen, Android Auto, and Apple CarPlay. Safety features are also plentiful. The base Explorer gives you rear parking sensors, lane departure mitigation, blind-spot monitoring, and forward-collision mitigation.

Ford Explorer XLT

Stepping up to the XLT model will mean getting nice extras, such as roof rails and heated side mirrors. Moving inside, the Explorer XLT is the home to heated front seats, second-row captain's chairs, and second-row USB ports. You also get a power-adjustable front passenger seat at this trim level.

Ford Explorer ST-Line

This sleek version of the Explorer gives you things like dark-tinted headlights and 20-inch dark gray alloy wheels to show off as you drive around town. It also has desirable features, such as wireless device charging, ambient interior lighting, a 12-speaker sound system, and a surround-view camera system.

Ford Explorer Timberline

If you are someone who wants an off-road-oriented SUV, the Explorer Timberline is for you. You get all-terrain tires, skid plates, and front tow hooks for this trim level. All-wheel drive also comes standard for added traction. Inside, the Timberline arrives equipped with heated second-row seats and synthetic leather upholstery.

Ford Explorer Limited

The Limited model does not have the off-road-oriented features found on the Timberline. Instead, it gives you extra luxury in the form of leather upholstery and ventilated front seats. This model also gains second-row sunshades and a heated steering wheel to increase comfort inside the Explorer. The exterior boasts sophisticated chrome accents and rain-sensing windshield wipers.

Ford Explorer ST

The ST is the first option on our list to have a turbocharged V6 engine that creates 400 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. This heart-pounding trim level also hosts quad exhaust outlets and transmission paddle shifters to enhance your experience at the wheel. A sport-tuned suspension also adds to your enjoyment. Inside, a 12.3-inch digital instrument panel helps you keep track of all the info you need as you cruise around town.

Ford Explorer King Ranch

This version of the Explorer sticks with the turbo V6 engine. It does not have the performance upgrades, but it does give you a hands-free power liftgate and unique wood interior trim. The King Ranch also has unique leather upholstery to show off, plus leather-wrapped interior panels. Several convenience features are available here as well, including driver's seat memory settings and a power-folding third-row seat. Rear automatic braking is also available for the Explorer King Ranch.

Ford Explorer Platinum

This top-of-the-line Explorer builds off the luxury found in the King Ranch. It gains adaptive headlights that corner with the vehicle, plus stunning 21-inch alloy wheels. A satin aluminum grille and other satin aluminum exterior accents help set this version of the Explorer apart from the lineup. Both the Platinum and King Ranch models can come equipped with a 14-speaker premium sound system as well as a 10.1-inch touchscreen.
