The Ford Explorer has been a staple in the U.S. for many years. It's a strong contender in the fiercely competitive mainstream three-row midsize SUV market. The 2024 model is the same, except for removing the hybrid option for civilian sales. But, it continues for the Police Interceptor.
The 2024 Ford Explorer is available in eight trim levels: Base, XLT, ST-Line, Timberline, Limited, ST, King Ranch, and Platinum trims. Are you looking for a 2024 Ford Explorer for sale in Plano, IL?

The 2024 Ford Explorer provides a large amount of space and includes everything expected for its class. Leather seats and wood accents are available on higher trims. Furthermore, the Explorer's big doors make getting in and out of the vehicle easy.
This Ford SUV has a 119-inch wheelbase, making it spacious. The first two rows offer plenty of room. The base model includes a second-row bench for seven-passenger seating. Other trims come with captain's chairs, reducing capacity to six or four adults if you consider the tight third row.
The trunk space behind the third row is generous, offering 18.2 cubic feet, which is more than many rivals. Folding the 50/50-split third row increases the space to 47.9 cubic feet. And with the 35/30/35-split second row down, you get a maximum of 87.8 cubic feet, rivaling the best in its class.
The cabin has ample storage space, with numerous spots to place items, including the glovebox, door pockets, a front-row storage bin, and an overhead sunglasses holder. This Ford SUV also has two front seatback pockets, 10 cup holders, and a phone rest/wireless charging pad in the center console. Meanwhile, the second row has a small compartment at the back of the center console and, if equipped with captain's chairs, a shallow tray between them.
The 2024 Ford Explorer features a squared stance and a stylish front end with standard LED headlights. Its unique sloped C-pillar, painted to match the body color, complements the otherwise blacked-out, visor-like windows. The base trims and the Timberline model come with 18-inch alloy wheels – black and all-terrain for the Timberline – while the other trims sport 20-inch wheels. Meanwhile, the ST boasts 21-inch wheels. Only the base model lacks roof rails.
The 2024 Explorer is available in various colors, including:
The base Ford Explorer trims feature a 2.3-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine that delivers 300 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque. On the other hand, higher trims like the ST, King Ranch, and Limited come with a powerful 3.0-liter twin-turbo V-6 engine that produces 400 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque.
The previously available hybrid trim is now only offered in the Police Interceptor model. All trims are available in 2WD or 4WD, except for the Timberline, which is exclusively 4WD. A 10-speed automatic transmission is standard across all models.
The Explorer's towing capacity is competitive, with the four-cylinder trims capable of towing up to 5,300 pounds and the V-6 trims up to 5,600 pounds when equipped with the Trailer Tow package. While not designed for serious off-roading, the Timberline trim excels in this area with its 8.7 inches of ground clearance, making it the most off-road capable of the lineup.
The 2024 Ford Explorer is an excellent choice for those seeking space, power, and comfort. Its impressive size, luxurious features, and various engine options ensure an outstanding driving experience whenever you get behind the wheel.
