      2027 Ford Explorer Platinum: Elevated Refinement and Intelligent Capability

Featuring a striking Ruby Red Metallic Tinted Clearcoat exterior and an upscale Salt Crystal Gray leather interior, this three-row SUV blends distinctive elegance with all-weather confidence. Whether navigating your daily routine around Terre Haute or setting out on a long highway trip, the Explorer Platinum offers serene cabin acoustics and impressive versatility. Take a moment to explore our new vehicle inventory to discover how this flagship SUV upgrades your driving experience.

      Performance & Capability

      Underneath its sculptured exterior, the 2027 Ford Explorer Platinum is powered by an EcoBoost 2.3L I-4 direct injection, DOHC, variable valve control, intercooled turbo, premium gasoline engine with 300HP. Paired with an advanced 10-speed automatic transmission, this powertrain delivers smooth acceleration and confident passing power. Intelligent 4WD automatic full-time four-wheel drive works alongside driver-selectable terrain modes to maintain solid stability across changing road surfaces. The independent strut front suspension and multi-link rear suspension smooth out rough pavement to preserve driver comfort. Active grille shutters and an auto stop-start engine enhance efficiency, helping achieve an EPA-estimated 20 MPG city and 27 MPG highway with its 17.9-gallon fuel tank. For added utility, standard Class III towing equipment with trailer sway control provides effortless capability when pulling recreational trailers.

      Technology & Connectivity

      Inside the driver-centric cabin, cutting-edge technology keeps you informed and entertained. The dashboard centers around a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a brilliant 13.2-inch primary display monitor with full touchscreen functionality. Integrated navigation with voice activation delivers clear route guidance and real-time traffic updates, while Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smart device wireless mirroring let you control smartphone media seamlessly. Audio is delivered through a high-end 14-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system backed by a 980-watt amplifier. Passengers remain powered up thanks to eight convenient USB ports throughout all three rows. Driver-assistance technologies include BlueCruise capability with a 90-day trial, a 360-degree aerial view camera system, and Pre-Collision Assist with Pedestrian Detection for full awareness.

        Love it.

        by Alex on 8/9/2026 11:55:02 PM

        Single guy looking for a vehicle that is fun to drive but can haul junk too, and this fits the bill. I came from a 2018 Lincoln MKZ 3.0t AWD, this has all the same features but this does it better. Mine had one minor panel issue the dealership is fixing, but otherwise everything is solid. Installed a BOV, I find it funny to blow past people with a quiet exhaust and a loud Spanish sound as they disappear into the distance. Fantastic nighttime viability over the lower trims. Actually just better over all than the lower trims. Bolt ons and a tune just puts this in its own league for the price you pay, the only thing that comes close is a 2026 dodge Durango RT 392. ST is not for everyone but it is for me. "Sporty" family hauler my butt. Wrong demographic. This is a genuine fast mid-sized SUZ that you'd have to go luxury to get close to the performance numbers otherwise.…
