Let the Highway Do the Work
Long stretches of highway can drain a driver faster than any traffic jam. The 2027 Ford Explorer offers a clever answer in BlueCruise. On prequalified divided highways, this available system steers, brakes, and accelerates while your hands rest. An infrared camera watches to confirm your eyes stay on the road. The latest version can even change lanes on its own. Arrive at the cottage or the in-laws feeling fresher, with the whole family still in good spirits.
Trim Levels
Five trims make up the 2027 Ford Explorer family: Active, ST-Line, Tremor, Platinum, and ST. The Active keeps things clean with 18-inch Sparkle Silver-painted wheels and LED lighting front and rear. Two 20-inch upgrades are offered in Carbonized Grey or Lustre Nickel. ST-Line takes a darker route with black badging, smoked lamps, and 20-inch Ebony-painted machined rims. A 21-inch Magnetite wheel is available for an even bolder stance. Tremor buyers get raised suspension, Electric Spice tow hooks, auxiliary lights, and 18-inch wheels wrapped in all-terrain rubber. Platinum shoppers see satin aluminum accents and an open-on-approach liftgate. The ST rolls on 21-inch Magnetite wheels. Its new Sinister Package switches to gloss black rims with amber accent lights. Several trims can delete the roof rails through the Slick Roof Conversion.
Performance
The 2027 Ford Explorer offers two turbocharged engines, both paired with a 10-speed automatic. The standard 2.3-litre EcoBoost four-cylinder engine delivers 300 horsepower and 310 lb.-ft. of torque. A twin-turbo 3.0-litre EcoBoost V-6 lifts output to 400 horsepower and 415 lb.-ft. It comes standard on the ST and is available on the Tremor and Platinum. Intelligent 4WD is standard across the Canadian lineup. The system reacts quickly when one wheel starts to lose grip. Drive modes cover Normal, Eco, Sport, Tow/Haul, and Slippery, plus an Off-Road setting on most trims. Properly equipped, the Ford Explorer tows up to 2,267 kg. Fuel consumption for the four-cylinder is rated at 11.9 L/100 km in the city and 8.7 L/100 km on the highway. The V-6 ST is rated at 13.3 L/100 km in the city and 9.6 L/100 km on the highway. Ground clearance ranges from 193 mm on the Active to 220 mm on the Tremor. Auto start-stop trims fuel use in city traffic. The ST adds a sport-tuned suspension, performance brakes, and a quad-tip exhaust for a sharper feel.
Interior Features and Technology
Technology leads the way inside the 2027 Ford Explorer. Every trim uses a 13.2-inch centre display with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Ford Co-Pilot360 bundles adaptive cruise control with other driver-assist features as standard equipment. ST-Line, Tremor, Platinum, and ST all offer BlueCruise. A one-year plan plus 90 days of service comes included on the Platinum. The ST-Line adds a 360-degree camera, which makes parking a long SUV much simpler. Bang & Olufsen audio arrives with 10 speakers on ST-Line, with a 14-speaker, 980-watt upgrade available. Heated front seats come standard, and heated second-row seats appear on the Tremor and Platinum trim. Platinum front seats also ventilate and massage. The Ford Connectivity Package adds a 5G Wi-Fi hotspot for one year. Legroom in the front row measures up to 1,093 mm. Cargo space starts at 461 litres behind the third row. Maximum capacity reaches 2,431 litres with the rear seats folded on Active and ST-Line. The Ford Security Package is included for one year. Active noise cancellation keeps the cabin hushed on coarse highway pavement. Ambient lighting gives the Platinum and ST cabins a warm glow at night.

FAQs
What changes on the 2027 Ford Explorer?
The 2027 Ford Explorer adds two fresh paint colours, Avalanche Grey and Ruby Red Metallic Tinted Clearcoat. Platinum buyers can now pair the 3.0-litre V-6 engine with quilted leather and an exclusive wheel design. Tremor models fitted with the V-6 can add the Sun & Sound Package. It brings a power moonroof, massaging front seats, and upgraded Bang & Olufsen audio. The ST receives a new Sinister Package with gloss black wheels, accent lighting, and black-outlined badges. A Slick Roof Conversion lets buyers remove the roof rails on Active, ST-Line, Platinum, and ST models. The Ford Security Package is also included for one year from the warranty start date. Buyers can also choose a one-time purchase instead.
How many people can ride in the 2027 Ford Explorer?
Every 2027 Ford Explorer has three rows and comes with second-row captain's chairs, which makes it a six-seater. Active, ST-Line, Platinum, and ST models can swap those chairs for a bench, raising capacity to seven. The Tremor is offered as a six-seater only. Platinum and ST include a third row that folds at the push of a button. That PowerFold feature is also available on the Tremor.
Which engines are offered, and how much power do they make?
Two turbocharged engines are available. The 2.3-litre EcoBoost four-cylinder produces 300 horsepower and 310 lb.-ft. of torque. It is the standard engine on Active, ST-Line, Tremor, and Platinum. The 3.0-litre EcoBoost V-6 uses twin turbochargers to produce 400 horsepower and 415 lb.-ft. of torque. It is standard on the ST and available on the Tremor and Platinum. Both engines use a 10-speed automatic transmission and auto start-stop.
Is four-wheel drive standard on the 2027 Ford Explorer in Canada?
Yes. Intelligent 4WD is standard on every 2027 Ford Explorer sold in Canada, from the Active to the ST. The system adjusts torque between the front and rear wheels as road conditions change. Six selectable drive modes let the driver fine-tune it for snow, slippery roads, towing, or sporty driving. The Tremor adds an Off-Road mode and a Torsen limited-slip rear axle. It also offers the most ground clearance in the lineup, at 220 mm. The Active and ST-Line sit at 193 mm, while the Platinum offers 210 mm.
How much can the 2027 Ford Explorer tow?
Each 2027 Ford Explorer trim can tow up to 2,267 kg when properly equipped. That rating applies to both the four-cylinder and the V-6. It is enough for many small campers, utility trailers, and fishing boats. A Tow/Haul drive mode adjusts shifting to suit the extra weight. Always check the owner's manual and your trailer's weight before hitching up.
How much cargo space does the 2027 Ford Explorer have?
With every seat in use, the 2027 Ford Explorer offers 461 litres of space behind the third row. Fold the third row, and the area expands to roughly 1,300 litres. Folding both rear rows opens 2,431 litres of space in Active and ST-Line models. Tremor, Platinum, and ST models offer slightly less, at 2,416 litres. A power liftgate makes loading easier, and Platinum adds an open-on-approach feature.
What fuel consumption can I expect from the 2027 Ford Explorer?
The 2.3-litre four-cylinder is rated at about 11.9 L/100 km in the city and 8.7 L/100 km on the highway. Its combined figure works out to roughly 10.4 L/100 km. The V-6 ST is rated at about 13.3 L/100 km in the city and 9.6 L/100 km on the highway. Auto start-stop helps save fuel in stop-and-go traffic. Real-world results will vary with driving habits, weather, and load.
