      2026 Ford Explorer ST: Unmatched Performance Meets Three-Row Luxury

      Command the road in the exhilarating 2026 Ford Explorer ST, a dynamic three-row SUV designed for drivers who refuse to compromise on power or everyday practicality. Dressed in a breathtaking Star White Metallic Tri-Coat exterior with refined Onyx interior appointments, this performance vehicle delivers intense twin-turbocharged horsepower while comfortably seating up to six passengers. Whether you are navigating daily family carpools in Clinton or embarking on weekend road trips across the state, the Explorer ST effortlessly elevates every mile. Drivers looking for modern power and spacious utility can explore our new vehicle inventory to see why this performance SUV stands in a class of its own.

      Dynamic Performance and Intelligent Four-Wheel Drive

      Under the hood lies a potent EcoBoost 3L V-6 gasoline direct injection engine featuring twin turbochargers and variable valve control, generating an incredible 400HP. Paired with a smooth 10-Speed Shiftable Automatic transmission with SelectShift paddle shifters, acceleration is instantaneous and precise. Standard Intelligent 4WD automatically adjusts torque delivery to maximize traction on slick, rain-soaked roads or uneven gravel tracks. Supported by a sport-tuned suspension system, gas-pressurized shock absorbers, and driver-selectable terrain modes, this SUV provides flat cornering and exceptional body control. When towing duties call, the factory-installed Class III Towing Equipment with trailer sway control lets you haul gear with absolute peace of mind. Striking 21-inch Magnetite-Painted Aluminum wheels wrapped in performance all-season tires round out a dominant stance that looks fast even when parked.

      Cutting-Edge Technology and Modern Convenience

      Step inside a high-tech cockpit anchored by a massive 13.2-inch primary touchscreen display alongside a fully customizable 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster. The integrated navigation system offers real-time traffic updates and voice activation, while wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto keep your smartphone seamlessly connected. Passengers can enjoy rapid device charging across eight USB ports or stay connected on the go using the built-in Ford Connect 5G Mobile Hotspot. Audiophiles will appreciate the Sun and Sound Package, which elevates every commute through a premium Bang & Olufsen 14-speaker sound system. Parking and maneuvering in tight spaces is effortless thanks to a 360-Degree Camera system providing a full aerial view, paired with front and rear parking sensors and Evasive Steering Assist.

        Love it.

        by Alex on 8/9/2026 11:55:02 PM

        Single guy looking for a vehicle that is fun to drive but can haul junk too, and this fits the bill. I came from a 2018 Lincoln MKZ 3.0t AWD, this has all the same features but this does it better. Mine had one minor panel issue the dealership is fixing, but otherwise everything is solid. Installed a BOV, I find it funny to blow past people with a quiet exhaust and a loud Spanish sound as they disappear into the distance. Fantastic nighttime viability over the lower trims. Actually just better over all than the lower trims. Bolt ons and a tune just puts this in its own league for the price you pay, the only thing that comes close is a 2026 dodge Durango RT 392. ST is not for everyone but it is for me. "Sporty" family hauler my butt. Wrong demographic. This is a genuine fast mid-sized SUZ that you'd have to go luxury to get close to the performance numbers otherwise.…
