Ford Explorer Trim Levels
The 2020 Ford Explorer has been fully redesigned, and that means all-new trim levels, too! At Cloninger Ford of Hickory, we want to help you explore the versions of this midsize SUV. There are four trim levels in total: XLT, Limited, ST, and Platinum. See which one has the features you need.
From multimedia technology to convenience features, we’ll cover what Valdese, Brookford, and Hickory drivers care about most. Feel free to reach out to us when you’re ready to learn more!
Ford Explorer XLT
The Ford Explorer XLT may be the base trim level, but it offers a surprising number of standard features.
The SYNC® 3 infotainment system is a great example of this. It comes standard with an 8-inch touchscreen and can integrate your smartphone, too. Use Apple CarPlay® or Android Auto™ for more intuitive connectivity.
Ford Co-Pilot360™ is also included, so you’ll have advanced driver assistance to help you adventure with more awareness. Appreciate the benefits of a Lane-Keeping System, Automatic Emergency Braking, and BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System) with Cross-Traffic Alert.
Plus, the FordPass Connect™ 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot lets you and your passengers go online without using any data. Check your emails and do your online shopping from the road!
Ford Explorer Limited
You’ll find even more deluxe features in the Ford Explorer Limited. This trim level adds leather seats and heating and cooling functions for the front seats, too. With all-season comfort, you can enjoy a relaxing journey in your SUV. The 10-way power driver’s seat is another perk!
The Explorer Limited also sees an upgraded sound system. The B&O Sound System by Bang & Olufsen uses 12 well-placed speakers to deliver an audio experience you’ll love on the road.
Ford Explorer ST
The Ford Explorer ST is a sportier way to drive. This trim level makes style the center of its appeal. From the black exterior styling elements to the perforated leather seats with ST logos, it truly makes its mark. A twin-panel moonroof is also included.
Did we mention this trim level comes standard with a 400-horsepower engine? The 3.0L EcoBoost® V6 is the definition of thrilling, with twin turbochargers responsible for its incredible output.
Ford Explorer Platinum
The Ford Explorer Platinum feels most like a luxury SUV. This top-tier trim offers every feature you could want in a vehicle. The SYNC® 3 infotainment system gets an optional 10.1-inch vertical touchscreen. The screen offers split-screen displays as well as swipe and pinch-to-zoom capabilities.
Intelligent 4WD (four-wheel drive) is standard on the Explorer Platinum, as is the Class III Trailer Tow Package. This SUV can tow up to 5,600 pounds—a major improvement over the previous year’s model.
