Robust Performance for Every Journey

Under the hood, the 2026 Explorer offers a choice of robust EcoBoost engines. The standard 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder generates a healthy 300 horsepower, while the available 3.0-liter EcoBoost V6 in the high-performance ST model cranks out an impressive 400 horsepower. Both pair with a quick-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission to optimize efficiency and response. Intelligent four-wheel drive is available for sure-footed traction across rough terrain and inclement weather around New Milford.

Bold Exterior Styling Turns Heads

The Ford Explorer boasts a bold, muscular exterior design that makes a statement on the streets of Monroe. Each trim features its own unique grille treatment, from the blacked-out mesh on ST models to the satin aluminum finish of the Platinum. Large aluminum wheels, up to 21 inches, fill out the fenders for an aggressive stance. LED headlamps and fog lamps provide crisp illumination, with available signature lighting adding a premium touch.

A Spacious, Well-Appointed Cabin

Inside the Explorer's cavernous cabin, you'll find seating for up to seven passengers across three rows. Newtown families will appreciate the spacious accommodations, with available captain's chairs in the second row and power-folding third row seats for flexible cargo space. Upscale amenities like a twin-panel moonroof, tri-zone automatic climate control, and heated and ventilated front seats wrapped in perforated leather elevate your driving experience.

Cutting-Edge Technology at Your Fingertips

The Ford Explorer offers no shortage of technologies to keep you connected, informed, and entertained on your journeys around Watertown. SYNC 4 infotainment is standard, with an expansive 13.2-inch touchscreen display and wireless integration of Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. An available 14-speaker sound system surrounds you in rich, studio-quality audio. For hands-free highway cruising and traffic jam assistance, the Explorer offers BlueCruise, Ford's semi-autonomous driving system.

Confidence-Inspiring Safety Features

The 2026 Ford Explorer is engineered with your family's safety in mind. Every model comes standard with Ford Co-Pilot360, a comprehensive suite of active safety technologies to help you avoid accidents. Key features include:

  • Blind Spot Information System with Cross-Traffic Alert
