With its spacious and flexible interior, robust performance and capability, and abundant amenities and tech features, the Ford Explorer is a perfect companion for modern-day exploration. Ideal for families, commuters, and road-trippers alike, Explorer has what it takes to tackle whatever adventures life has in store. And you can find it here at Mel Ervin Ford in Chesaning, MI. Here's a quick look at just a few of our favorite attributes.
Performance
A 2.3-liter turbocharged engine moves Explorer with authority, sending 300 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels through a smooth and precise 10-speed automatic transmission. With a base 0–60 time of ~6.2 seconds, Explorer has plenty of internal motivation for confident merging and passing. And if you for enhanced handling and control in snowy or off-road situations, a capable 4x4 system is available across the lineup.
