What’s New for 2025?
While the 2025 Ford Explorer refuses to compromise systems and features that place this SUV in a tier of greatness, you’ll find a few new upgrades for the model year, including a reworked exterior. Up front, the new grille steals the show with a regal and refined touch that can’t help but draw in second looks. Meanwhile, the available black roof on some trims further crafts a sporty profile that helps ensure your SUV is noticed for all the right reasons.
Take a seat inside, and the ST-Line, Platinum, and ST trims add BlueCruise, allowing you to give your hands a rest and letting your SUV take over. This feature works on 130,000 miles of road and helps you rediscover the joys of driving at all times—including lengthy highway cruises and rush hour jams. Also new for 2025 is the Ford Digital Experience, which remembers your favorite infotainment apps while also transforming your SUV into a Wi-Fi® hotspot so that your passengers can play around with devices while you focus on the drive ahead.
