If you're looking for a modern SUV that will get you and your crew where you need to go in style, then look no further than the 2021 Ford Escape. Built to take on all of life's adventures, the Explorer is designed with your busy schedule in mind. From its spacious interior to its sleek design, this SUV has it all.

Trim Levels

Angled lines and a bold front grille with the Ford logo featured front and center greets your eyes when you first approach the latest Explorer. To get exactly the appearance elements you want, you can choose from five trim levels. The lineup starts out with the self-named Explorer model and moves up through the XLT, Limited, ST, and Platinum. A power liftgate, LED taillamps, a molded-in rear bumper step, and a body-color liftgate spoiler are all standard. Upgrading to a higher trim level means having access to features like LED fog lamps, quad chrome exhaust tips, a hands-free foot-activated liftgate, and roof rack side rails.

Engine

The standard engine for the Ford Explorer is a 2.3-liter EcoBoost turbocharged four-cylinder that delivers an impressive 280 horsepower and up to 310 pound-feet of torque. When you choose either the ST or the Platinum trims, you can upgrade to a 3.0-liter EcoBoost V-6 engine. In the Platinum, this engine generates 365 horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque, while in the ST, it pumps out an incredible 400 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. A 3.3-liter hybrid engine is another option for those who put efficiency at the top of their list.

Performance

No matter which of the Explorer's engines you choose, it will come mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission that glides seamlessly through the gears for smooth, quick shifting. On the road or off, the Terrain Management System ensures you can take on any adventure with ease. Rear-wheel drive is standard, but you can upgrade to intelligent four-wheel drive if you plan on taking your Explorer off the beaten path.

Interior

Inside the Ford Explorer, you'll find a versatile space that can accommodate up to seven people comfortably or a maximum of 87.8 cubic feet of gear. So regardless of how many people you need to bring along or what they want to pack, you'll have no problem making it work. Getting into the third row will be a cinch, thanks to the EZ-entry second row that's easy to operate with the pull of a lever.

Safety Features

Whether you're traveling alone or with your family, you'll feel confident knowing the Explorer is equipped with Ford Co-Pilot360. This suite of safety features provides drivers peace of mind with lane-keep assist, automatic high-beam headlamps, intelligent adaptive cruise control, pre-collision assist with automatic emergency braking, and blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert. You also get a rearview camera that makes it easy to back up. To make parking a breeze, opt for active park assist 2.0. This feature helps you find an open parking space, and then, all you have to do is hold down the active park assist button and let the Explorer do the rest.

ADVERTISED PRICE. The advertised price is the total price a consumer pays for the vehicle and includes all dealer-imposed fees and charges. The advertised price may reflect publicly available manufacturer incentives that are offered to all consumers without qualification (for example, general consumer cash rebates). The advertised price excludes only: (i) applicable sales tax; (ii) tag, title, and registration fees; and (iii) other government-imposed charges. See the state-specific disclosures below for the components of the pre-delivery service fee and other dealer fees included in the advertised price.

CONDITIONAL INCENTIVES NOT INCLUDED. The advertised price does not reflect conditional manufacturer or dealer incentives. Conditional incentives are available only to consumers who meet eligibility requirements and are shown separately on each vehicle’s detail page. Examples include educator, military, first responder, college graduate, lease loyalty, conquest, trade assistance, and incentives conditioned on financing with a specific lender (for example, Cadillac Financial, Ford Credit, GM Financial, and other captive lenders). Not all consumers will qualify. See each vehicle’s detail page, or contact the dealership, for applicable conditional incentives and eligibility terms for which you may qualify.

IN-TRANSIT VEHICLES. Vehicles identified as “In Transit” are en route to the dealership and not yet available for physical inspection. Estimated arrival dates are approximate and are subject to carrier and manufacturer schedules. The advertised price applies to the vehicle as equipped upon arrival.

A correction of a good-faith pricing error is not a change to the advertised price. The corrected price is the advertised price from the time of correction forward.

PRICING UPDATES. Advertised prices reflect the dealership's pricing as of the date of publication.
