About 2015 Ford Explorer
The 2015 Ford Explorer abounds with clever storage solutions and generous head and shoulder room, three rows of flexible seating, and room for all the gear families invariably take along on their adventures.

A new appearance package for Explorer XLT brings a stylish look to a utility that features rugged capability, surprising efficiency and high-tech features that enhance the driving experience. The optional new appearance package delivers sport-inspired design to Explorer�s highly successful and very capable XLT series, which includes 20-inch machined aluminum wheels with painted pockets; Black body-side cladding and roof-rack rails; and Magnetic Metallic painted grille, mirror caps and liftgate appliqu�.

The performance-oriented features of the 2015 Explorer include an electric power-assisted steering system that gives great responsiveness to drivers in on-road and off-road situations, and large brakes for shorter stopping distances and better performance when towing. Also new, 18-inch painted aluminum wheels are now standard on base model Explorer.

The Explorer's standard engine is a 3.5-liter V6 delivering 290 horsepower and 255 lb.-ft. of torque. It is mated to Ford's six-speed SelectShift Automatic transmission.

Ford Explorer V6 models are available with an intelligent 4WD system that adds terrain management. A driver need only turn the console-mounted knob to the proper setting for snow, sand, mud or normal mode. In addition, the system includes hill descent mode.

The Explorer also offers the advanced 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine -- delivering the power of a normally aspirated V6 without compromise to its four-cylinder fuel economy. This direct-injected, turbocharged and intercooled engine delivers an estimated 237 horsepower and develops 250 lb.-ft. of torque from 1,700 through 4,000 rpm.
