This Explorer Active is finished in Gray exterior and equipped with a 2.3L EcoBoost I-4 engine paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. The combination delivers reliable performance while achieving 20 city and 27 highway MPG, making it efficient for both daily commuting and longer trips.
The cabin is designed with comfort in mind. Heated captain's chairs in the front row and heated steering wheel keep occupants warm during colder months. The multi-zone climate control ensures every passenger finds their ideal temperature, while the second-row HVAC controls add convenience. You'll appreciate the power driver seat for easy positioning and the telescoping, tilt steering wheel for customized driving angles.
Technology features are seamlessly integrated. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto give you access to your favorite apps through the touchscreen. Steering wheel controls let you manage audio and cruise control without taking your hands off the wheel. The SiriusXM satellite radio keeps you entertained with hundreds of channels, while Bluetooth hands-free connectivity keeps you connected safely while driving.
Safety and visibility are prioritized throughout. LED headlights with automatic high-beam functionality provide excellent nighttime visibility. The backup camera gives you a clear view when reversing, while the cross traffic alert and blind spot monitor help you navigate traffic confidently. Lane departure warning provides an extra layer of awareness, and standard airbags throughout the cabin protect all occupants.
The three-row seating configuration accommodates up to seven passengers, with the split-folding rear seat offering flexibility for cargo when needed. Whether you're transporting a full family or hauling gear for the weekend, the Explorer Active adapts to your lifestyle. The trailer tow hitch opens additional possibilities for extending your cargo capacity.
This 2026 Explorer Active represents a practical investment in family transportation that combines capability, comfort, and technology into one well-rounded package. We invite you to visit our showroom and take this SUV for a test drive.
