The midsize utility vehicle doesn’t stray from the proven formula expected in the three-row segment. The Explorer continues in the same vein, but for 2026, there are some updates—most notably a new Tremor variant that’s far better equipped for venturing off the paved road. Under the hood, the Explorer offers only two choices: a 2.3-litre turbocharged four-cylinder or a 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6. The latter can power the ST or the Tremor, although the Tremor can also be built with the four-cylinder engine.
