I especially appreciated that he took time out of his day to meet me at the South store and make things as convenient as possible. Although I ultimately decided to hold off on purchasing at this time, that decision had nothing to do with Kent or the service I received. I really appreciated his time, patience, and no-pressure approach. Based on my experience with Kent, I would absolutely recommend working with him.”

2023 Ford Explorer Expert Review
An expert perspective from Edmunds on this model year.
Model-year editorial research only; not VIN- or trim-specific equipment verification.
The Ford Explorer is one of the longest-running SUVs on the road. It debuted more than 30 years ago and kick-started an American love affair with sport-utility vehicles that persists to this day. Our editors have praised the current-generation Explorer for its powerful engines, generous cargo space and standard safety features. However, its subpar interior materials don't often match up to its price tag, which can get into luxury SUV territory on higher trim levels.
While we find aspects of the Explorer appealing, the crop of midsize SUVs has grown significantly since the SUV debuted, and it is no longer the class leader it once was. The Kia Telluride and its corporate cousin, the Hyundai Palisade, have taken the top spots for our recommendations in recent years. Both are more comfortable and feel more premium inside than the Explorer, and each gets a refresh for the 2023 model year. A redesigned 2023 Honda Pilot is rolling out, too, and the lineup includes a new TrailSport version that offers improved off-roading capability.
Rumor had it the 2023 Explorer would get updates, too, but for now the SUV carries on without major changes. When Ford bestows a freshening upon its family hauler, probably for the 2024 model year, the company will likely update the Explorer's styling, interior design and materials, and technology. Look for Ford's next-generation Sync infotainment systems and BlueCruise hands-free highway driving assist system at that time.
In the meantime, if you can't wait for the 2024 Explorer, check out what our test team has to say about the current model in our Expert Rating below.
What stands out
- Strong engines for quick acceleration
- Rear-wheel-drive platform improves handling and towing
- Impressive collection of safety features
- Roomy cargo area
Things to consider
- Hybrid is modestly more fuel-efficient and unavailable for most trims
- The price can get frighteningly expensive in a hurry
- Adults may find the third-row seat to be uncomfortable
