West Bend Used Ford Dealership

Since its production started in 1990, the Ford Explorer has become one of the USA's most beloved SUVs, known for its spacious interior and ability to thrive in all terrains. The 2025 Ford Explorer continues the model's legacy, adding modern features that combine practicality with excitement. Explore five of the Explorer's most exceptional features to find out if it's the SUV for you. more Terrain Management System The Ford Explorer's Terrain Management System allows you to shift between four different settings to match the terrain you're driving on. First, there's the Normal setting, which provides a balanced drive, biasing torque to the front wheels. Then you've got the more aggressive Mud/Ruts setting, the Sand setting which places transmission into the lower gears, and the Grass/Gravel/Snow setting which focuses on minimizing wheel slip. Auto High Beam Ford's Auto High Beam features shifts between low and high beams depending on whether there are other vehicles around. These shifts are made automatically without any input from the driver, so you won't have to keep your finger hovering over the high beam stick when driving in extremely low-lit areas. The feature is powered by a camera sensor, which can detect the headlights of other vehicles at long distances. SOS Post-Crash Alert System Of course, no driver wants to be in a situation where they have to use the Explorer's SOS Post-Crash Alert System, but it's a potentially life-saving feature. If you get into an accident and the airbag is deployed, the system automatically activates the vehicle's horn and hazard lights, alerting people nearby of the incident. Backup Assist Grid Lines Parking a vehicle the size of the Ford Explorer isn't always easy, which is where the car's Backup Assist grid lines come into play. When you reverse the car into a space, the rear camera will appear on the display screen, along with grid lines that represent the width of the car. They will help you to gauge the distance of vehicles either side, helping you to decide whether you can fit into the space or not. Intelligent Access The Intelligent Access feature on the Ford Explorer makes the driver experience feel almost entirely keyless. If you have the key fob in your pocket, you can unlock the car by holding your finger on the unlock sensor on the driver's side door handle. The same process can be repeated to lock the car upon exit. Starting the car is also keyless with the Explorer's Start/Stop button placed by the wheel. The Ford Explorer is just as practical as it is fun to drive, with features that make it as suitable for off-roading as it is for taking the kids to school. Think it could be the right fit for you?

Additional options include a twin-panel moonroof, heated power-folding sideview mirrors, rain-sensing wipers, and LED fog lamps. Timberline models have the most rugged exterior though, as they come with roof rack side rails, front and rear skid plates, and front tow hooks. Tech for Everyone The SYNC 3 infotainment system, which comes entertainment options with hands-free calling and available navigation support, comes standard, as does a 4G LTE Wifi Hotspot. Other standard offerings include multiple USB ports, FordPass Connect access, and a customizable productivity screen in the instrument cluster. There's also an available 12-speaker B&O sound system, as well as the Universal Garage Door Opener and a wireless charging pad.

Active Park Assist 2.0 is available to help you maneuver into and out of tight spaces, and the 360-degree camera provides views of both the vehicle and your surroundings using both bird's-eye and ground-level views.
