The mechanical foundation is built for agility, featuring a Sport ride suspension with Independent front and rear suspension and gas-pressurized shock absorbers. Drivers can fine-tune their experience using the Driver selectable drivetrain mode, adapting the vehicle's behavior to the specific terrain at hand. Efficiency is also considered, with an Auto stop-start engine and a regenerative alternator helping to manage fuel consumption during city commutes. With Four Wheel Drive and all-speed ABS and driveline traction control, this Explorer is engineered to remain composed and capable regardless of what the regional landscape throws your way. Technology & Connectivity Inside the cabin, the 2025 Ford Explorer ST serves as a high-tech command center. The focal point is a massive 13.2 inch primary display with touchscreen functionality, complemented by a 12.30 inch digital instrumentation display that provides clear, customizable data at a glance. Staying connected is effortless thanks to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smart device wireless mirroring, allowing you to access your favorite apps and playlists without the clutter of cables. For those who value premium audio, the B&O Sound System with 14 speakers and a 980W amplifier transforms the interior into a private concert hall. The Integrated navigation system with voice activation ensures you never lose your way while exploring new destinations in the surrounding area. Furthermore, the Front wireless smart device charging pad and 8 USB ports distributed throughout the cabin ensure that every passenger's device remains powered up. With FordPass Connect 5G mobile hotspot internet access, your vehicle becomes a mobile hub for work or entertainment on the go. Comfort & Interior The interior of the Explorer ST is a masterclass in modern comfort, featuring ONYX ACTIVEX SEATS with Miko simulated suede and leatherette front seat upholstery. Both the driver and front passenger can enjoy the luxury of Massaging front seats, which are also Heated and Ventilated to combat the local temperature swings. The Miko Sport Captain's Chairs in the second row provide a premium experience for passengers, while the PowerFold third-row seat allows you to expand your cargo capacity with the touch of a button. Climate management is handled by a Dual-zone front climate control system and a Rear climate control system with separate controls, ensuring everyone stays comfortable. The Heated steering wheel and Heated door mirrors are essential for those frosty mornings, while the first and second-row sliding and tilting glass sunroof provides an airy, open feel to the cabin. Small details like the 120V AC power outlet, illuminated front beverage holders, and ambient lighting elevate the daily driving experience, making every trip through the surrounding area feel like a special occasion. Safety & Driver Assistance Safety is paramount in the 2025 Ford Explorer ST, which comes equipped with a comprehensive suite of driver-assist technologies. The 360 Degree Camera provides an aerial view to make parking in tight spots simple, while the Forward and Reverse Sensing System alerts you to nearby obstacles. For highway travel, the Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go and Lane-Keeping System work together to reduce driver fatigue and maintain a safe position on the road. Advanced protection is provided by a 7 airbag system, including a Driver side knee airbag and the Safety Canopy System covering all three rows. The BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) and Rear Cross-Traffic Braking act as an extra set of eyes, helping to prevent collisions during lane changes or while backing out of driveways. In the event of an emergency, the 911 Assist system can provide peace of mind, while Post-Collision Braking helps to mitigate further impact after an initial incident. Exterior & Design The exterior of the Explorer ST is finished in a striking AGATE BLACK metallic paint, accented by a Black grille and Body-colored front and rear bumpers. The vehicle sits proudly on 21-inch Magnetite-Painted Aluminum wheels, which house Red painted front and rear brake calipers for a distinct performance look. A Rear lip spoiler and Stainless steel dual exhaust with chrome tailpipe finishers further emphasize the ST's sporty DNA. Functionality meets style with LED low and high beam headlights, LED front fog lights, and LED daytime running lights that ensure maximum visibility. The Power liftgate provides easy access to the cargo area, while the Class III tow rating and Trailer hitch mean you are always ready for weekend adventures.
