The 2027 Ford Explorer Active cuts a sharp profile that turns heads before you even open the door. Those 18-inch Sparkle Silver-painted aluminum wheels sit flush against body-color bumpers, and the overall stance reads purposeful without being over-the-top. This is a truck-based SUV that looks like it means business, and once you get behind the wheel, you find out it absolutely does.
Under the hood sits a 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder that pulls hard and keeps pulling. Paired with a 10-speed automatic, power delivery is smooth but eager, and the gearbox always seems to have the right ratio ready when you press deeper into the throttle. Four-wheel drive gives you real traction confidence on wet roads or loose terrain, and four-wheel independent suspension keeps the Explorer composed through corners instead of just plowing through them. Front and rear anti-roll bars tighten the whole package up, so body roll stays in check when you push the pace. This is a three-row SUV that actually handles, and that is not something you can say about all of them.
Inside, the Explorer Active gives you front bucket seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a power driver seat so you can dial in your position before you plant your foot. Navigation is built in, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are both supported, and the SiriusXM with 360L radio fills six speakers with clean sound on the highway at 27 MPG. The third-row bench splits and folds to free up cargo room when you need it, and the full safety suite covers you with electronic stability control, ABS, brake assist, and a rear camera for tight parking spots.
