The ford explorer tackles family life well.

The popular Ford Explorer makes its way onto just about every three-row crossover SUV shopping list, and with good reason.

It’s roomy, rides well, and offers some standout features.

Yet the ford explorer basic design is showing its age, now nearly a decade into its life cycle.

A new 2020 Explorer has great promise, with a new platform and a coming plug-in hybrid model; it’s put the 2019 ford explorer model on the shelf and it isn’t even on sale yet.

We rate the 2019 ford explorer at 8.8 out of 10. (Read more about how we rate cars.)

For 2019, the Explorer lineup gains a few new trim packages, active safety tech is more widely available,

and a power tailgate is newly standard on the popular Ford Explorer trim level.

 The 2019 ford explorer is available in base, XLT, Limited, Sport, and Platinum trim levels.

Performance
The 2019 Ford Explorer rides well and has ample power from its available turbo engines.
As long as your definition of exploring involves strip malls and paved highways, the 2019 Ford Explorer makes a willing companion. Its trio of engine choices all work well and it has a comfortable, composed ride.

We rate the Explorer at 6 out of 10, giving it a point above average for its ride quality. (Read more about how we rate cars.)

2019 Ford Explorer
Comfort & Quality
The 2019 Ford Explorer’s interior doesn’t prioritize passenger comfort like it should.
Though it stretches nearly 200 inches from bumper to bumper, the 2019 Ford Explorer’s interior lacks for comfort. We rate it at 6 out of 10, getting there by adding a point for its accommodating front seats that we then take back for a subpar second row. It gains another point for excellent cargo utility. (Read more about how we rate cars.)

Up front, the Explorer features a standard 8-way power driver’s seat. Higher-spec trims add power adjustment for the passenger’s seat, too. The standard cloth upholstery feels hard-wearing but not particularly plush and the optional leather isn’t much dressier until you step up to the pricey Explorer Platinum with its higher-grade hides. Massaging front seats are optional on Limited and above trims, too.

Unfortunately, the Explorer’s second row doesn’t live up to the front. It’s spacious enough, but the standard bench is thinly padded. The optional second-row captain’s chairs are a smart, and popular, bet, but they’re not that much more comfortable. Row three is best for kids and it’s not especially easy to access.
