About the 2014 Ford Explorer
Vehicle Summary
When you need a midsize SUV to tote a family of seven and haul your boat or ATV off to the campground, the 2014 Ford Explorer may have all the perks and capability you desire. Tackle the daily drive using standard front-wheel drive or opt for a machine equipped with intelligent four-wheel drive. With two V6 engines and a turbo-charged inline four-cylinder version to choose from, you can power through your day while working the gears using the SelectShift® six-speed automatic transmission. Roof rails, split-folding seats, and a large liftgate make loading up for the weekend a snap. Trailer sway control, hill descent control, and traction control come together for a confident ride over steep hills and tight turns. With available Bluetooth® technology, dual-zone air conditioning, and power memory driver seats, you will be piloting a nicely equipped Explorer that turns your grocery getter into a luxurious vehicle.

Generation Overview
The 2014 Ford Explorer belongs to the fifth generation of this midsize SUV design and provides plenty of muscle and space for the active growing family. Four doors and three rows of seating enables you to load up your crew of seven inside. If you are making a big trip to the home improvement store, both back rows fold down to open up 80.7 cubic feet of cargo space. For daily driving, the standard 3.5L Ti-VCT V6 engine produces a respectable 290 hp--enough to power off the line at the lights without hesitation. If you are watching the fuel gauge, the 2.0L turbocharged inline four-cylinder with FWD and automatic transmission earns an impressive EPA-estimated 28 mpg highway.2 When heading off-road, the 3.5L EcoBoost® V6 makes the most out of the available 4WD with 365 hp.
Four trims are available on the Explorer, starting with the base that includes air conditioning, cruise control, dual exhaust tips, power windows and trailer sway control using only front-wheel drive. The XLT introduces a collection of upgrades ready to make your life easier with power front seats, the SYNC® system with voice-activated Bluetooth connection, fog lamps, roof rails, and a backup sensing system. The Limited adds luxury amenities to your SUV such as dual-zone automatic climate control, a 12-speaker surround sound system, power-adjustable pedals, and 20-inch aluminum wheels. Both the XLT and Limited are built with either FWD or 4WD. The Sport is ready to attack the road using the 3.5L EcoBoost engine, 4WD, a sport-tuned suspension, heated power bucket seats, and snazzy black-out treatments for front and tail lighting.
If you are searching for driver assist technology, blind spot detection can be found on the XLT or higher as part of an additional package. However, every Explorer does come equipped with hill descent technology that helps you stay in control while towing or navigating unpaved roads on steep inclines. An available navigation system is also available as part of a SiriusXM® package upgrade.3
