At Southwest Ford in Weatherford, we know that Texas drivers expect more from their SUVs—more space, more capability, and more confidence behind the wheel. The 2025 Ford Explorer delivers all that and more. With updated styling, smarter tech, and performance that adapts to your lifestyle, this three-row SUV is ready for everything from school drop-offs in Parker County to weekend escapes at Possum Kingdom Lake.

Powertrain Options Tailored to Your Drive
The 2025 Explorer offers two distinct engine choices, each paired with Ford’s smooth-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission:
- 2.3L EcoBoost® I-4: Standard across most trims, this turbocharged engine produces 300 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. It’s ideal for daily driving and light towing.
- 3.0L EcoBoost® V6: Standard on the ST and available on Platinum, this twin-turbo engine delivers 400 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque for drivers who want more punch on the highway or when towing up to 5,300 lbs.
Intelligent 4WD is available across the lineup, and with up to seven selectable drive modes—including Normal, Trail, Slippery, Tow/Haul, and Eco—the Explorer adapts to changing road conditions with ease.
Interior Comfort and Versatility
Inside, the Explorer offers seating for six or seven passengers depending on configuration, with thoughtful touches that elevate everyday comfort:
- Trim Highlights:
- Active: Durable cloth seating and practical layout
- ST-Line: Sporty accents and black interior trim
- Platinum: Tri-Diamond perforated leather and premium finishes
Standard heated front seats and available ventilated seating ensure comfort in all seasons. The cabin also features soft-touch surfaces and improved materials for 2025, making long drives feel more refined.
Cargo space maxes out at 87.8 cu. ft. with the second and third rows folded, giving you plenty of room for gear, groceries, or luggage.
