2021 Ford Explorer

A modern classic, the Ford Explorer is the often-imitated, never-duplicated hard-working, off-roading SUV of your dreams. While it’s sometimes taken for granted due to its timeless reliability, the fact remains that the 2021 Ford Explorer is still one of the most reliable cars on the market today. It’s the SUV your dad drove, the one you drive now, and it’s the only SUV you’d deem safe enough for your own kid.

Plus, with its rugged capability, classic style, and unmatched comfort, the 2021 Explorer is the perfect SUV for everything from work commutes and trips to school, to weekend getaways and longer road trips. There’s many reasons why the Ford Explorer remains one of the top-selling vehicles at Ford dealerships. Read on to find out why.

A Safe SUV Near Arlington

There are more dangers on the road than ever before, but as always, Ford’s engineers have kept up with the times. New Fords, like the 2021 Explorer, come with the Ford Co-Pilot™ technology, which features the following active safety features:

  • BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System)
  • Rear View Camera
  • Lane-Keeping System
  • Automatic Emergency Braking
  • Auto High-Beam Headlamps
  • and more, available with Ford Co-Pilot 360 Assist+

These active safety features can help you be a better driver, and help you avoid accidents on the road, whatever the conditions. If you do get into an accident, however, the Explorer also includes Post-Collision Braking, which can help lessen the severity of a secondary collision, and has received a 5-star safety rating from the NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration).

A rugged off-roader, the Ford Explorer’s improved ground clearance, increased approach and departure angles, underbody skid plates, and 3.58 TORSEN® Limited Slip Rear Axle can take you anywhere your imagination can.

And with the unique wheel and tow hook badging on the Explorer Timberline, you’ll be sure to stand out on the trailhead and in city traffic.

Available Intelligent 4WD gives you even more control over your drive, with an easy-to-access dial for 7 different driving modes: Normal, Trail, Deep Snow/Sand, Slippery, Sport, Tow/Haul and Eco. And with Hill Descent Control, you can descend hills with confidence.
