The new Ford Explorer is among the best and most popular midsize SUVs. It boasts contemporary technology and safety features, appealing performance, a roomy interior across its three rows, and a well-balanced design without any clear weaknesses.

The Explorer also has an extensive array of trims that create complex decisions for any buyers trying to zero in on a configuration. Identifying the right trim for Newburgh drivers and their families is an important decision, and on this page, Yorktown Heights shoppers can read about each of the trims and what they offer.

Base Trim

The base Explorer has all the standard features and the base 300-horsepower engine. All trims have optional all-wheel drive. The base trim gets an 8-inch touchscreen, Wi-Fi, satellite radio, a power liftgate, and plenty of automated safety features for protection from collisions near Warwick, NY.

XLT

The XLT trim adds seating upgrades like heating and power controls for the front row, USB ports for the second row, and a leather steering wheel. It has several packages and options that can add on a moonroof, adaptive cruise control, navigation, more automated safety, wireless charging pads, sound system upgrades, and more. A towing system is also among the options.

ST-Line

This trim has more advanced inclusions like windshield wipers that sense the rain and start up automatically and a digital instrument display. It gets the XLT's packages and upgrades, like an improved adaptive cruise control system and a new lane-centering feature.

HD radio and an upgraded stereo improve the ride, while ambient interior lights make for an easier time finding that dropped the phone.

Limited

The Limited trim has luxury upgrades. The whole interior gets leather upholstery, and both the first and second rows have heating and ventilation. It gets a hands-free liftgate and powered controls to lower the back row, plus a few more extras for Haverstraw shoppers.

Timberline

The Timberline is the offroad specialist among the Explorer's trims. With a limited-slip differential, skid plates, upgraded shocks, all-terrain tires, and four-wheel drive, this trim is the right choice for those who want to hit the trails. It has a restyled exterior appearance to match its rugged design.

ST

The ST is the first trim to have the upgraded 400-horsepower engine. That engine brings with it a retuned suspension, an expanded digital instrument cluster, and a new design on the exterior so that it can look good while taking full advantage of its increased power. Some of the options from the lower trims are standard in the ST, and others are still optional, but the ST also has an exclusive set of its options, like massaging front seats, performance brakes, and a parking assist system.

King Ranch and Platinum

The Platinum and King Ranch trims are the two range-topping trims for the Explorer. They have a similar feature list and primarily differ in look and design. The leather upholstery is upgraded to a higher level of quality than is present in the lower trims, and the interior will be accented with wood paneling. The exteriors of both get their own upscale restyle work.

Both also get a final exclusive feature that lower trims don't: reverse automatic emergency braking.
