Interior Review of the 2023 Ford Explorer
The 2023 Ford Explorer lives up to the legendary roominess of its cabin. It offers three-row seating, including 18.2 cubic feet of storage with the seats occupied.
Ford makes accessing the third row easy. Just push a button, and the second-row shifts to make room for easy ingress and egress of passengers.
Aside from space, Explorers are known for advanced infotainment equipment and this 2023 model year is no different. It has a 12.3-inch touchscreen monitor with Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™, Wi-Fi hotspot capability, and Bluetooth® streaming.



Exterior Review of the 2023 Ford Explorer
Through the years, Ford has managed to carve a shape out of the boxy Explorer body, and it's evident in the 2023 model year.
The exterior is more aggressively shaped and has dynamic character lines and a sloping roof with ridges that channel air to flow smoothly across the top to increase aerodynamic efficiency.
It has wraparound body cladding, functional roof rails, a rear roof spoiler, and blacked-out A and D-pillars.

Power and Performance of the 2023 Ford Explorer
The body of the 2023 Ford Explorer may be hefty, but it moves gracefully, thanks to three engine options. It has a 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine (300 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque), a 3.3-liter V6 (318 horsepower and 322 pound-feet of torque), and a 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 with two output levels - 365 horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque in the Platinum variant and 400 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque in the ST variant.
All engines send power to the wheels via a 10-speed automatic transmission, which does an excellent job in taming the torque and is perfectly calibrated to provide a smooth ride all throughout the six gears. There's an option for a manual mode that you'll rarely use because, for an SUV this big, it just feels more natural to leave it automated.
One of the major advantages of riding in a vehicle this wide is its stability, and with its excellent suspension setup, it is like riding your couch on a cloud with wheels.
