Selectable drive modes

Choose between five drive modes – Normal, ECO, Sport, Individual or Traction (AWD only) – to adapt to different road conditions.

One-pedal drive (1)

Accelerate and brake with a single pedal - less pedal switching makes driving the Ford Explorer smoother and more effortless.

Free yourself from cables with a wireless charging pad for your smartphone in the centre console. (2)

Driver Assistance Pack

Get extra support on the road with the Driver Assistance Pack, featuring Driver Alert, Lane Centring with Lane Change Assist, Active Park Assist, head‑up display, plus 360‑degree parking camera with five cameras and 12 ultrasonic sensors. (3)

Parking made easy

Driver assistance pack

Your Ford Explorer will automatically detect available parking spots and then park itself at the touch of a button. (4)

360-degree camera

Cameras at the front, side and rear of the car give a real-time view of the area around you to help avoid accidental damage (3).

Safeguarding your journey

Assisted lane change

Assisted Lane Change monitors the neighbouring lanes and can assist you in moving lanes when it is clear to do so, (5) while Adaptive Cruise Control helps you cruise with ease and comfort  by automatically adjusting your speed while following the car in front.

Reversing Assist (6)

Helps in narrow lanes where turning isn't possible. The vehicle records the forward path (7) and, when reversing, controls steering while the driver manages speed.

Keep focused

Keep your eyes on the road and see all the important information on the digital head-up display, right in front of you (8).

Wide view camera

A front panoramic camera gives you a split-screen view so you can spot traffic, cyclists and pedestrians when edging out of tight or obstructed spaces.

Drive alert

To let you stay focused on the road, the system will monitor your driving and alert you when it's time to rest (9).
