3 Reasons Families Love the New Ford Explorer

The 2020 Ford Explorer has been totally redesigned for this model year. With family adventures in mind, Ford has added two new trims as well as a new drivetrain to help families get to where they need to go. Here are the top three reasons families love the new Ford Explorer. 

Ready for Any Family Adventure

Starting with a towing capacity of up to 5,600 pounds, the 2020 Ford Explorer gives your family the needed power to tow your trailer, boat, all-terrain vehicles, or whatever you need on your next adventure. It has the Terrain Management System, which has up to seven drive modes to select from with a simple twist of a dial. 

The Explorer also adds Intelligent 4WD that optimizes powertrain and braking systems based on the road or terrain. The front-wheel-drive system has been replaced with rear-wheel drive, which improves towing capacity and performance along with on- and off-road capability. The towing and trailer sway control adjusts brakes and power in order to keep the trailer under control. 

Technology To Drive With Confidence

The 2020 Ford Explorer adds several safety features to help you focus on getting where you’re going. Leading off these features is auto high-beam headlights that turn on when you’re driving in the dark or through bad weather. The headlights will automatically turn off when the Explorer detects oncoming traffic, then turn back on when it’s safe. There’s also the available Active Park Assist 2.0, which helps you detect parking spots and assists you as you park. 

Ford provides additional peace of mind with the standard rear-view camera with a built-in washer to keep the lens clean. Coupled with that is reverse brake assist, which provides alerts as well as automatic braking in the event something has entered your path. The 2020 Ford Explorer adds intelligent adaptive cruise control, which monitors the vehicle in front of you and adjusts the speed as necessary. These features, along with automatic emergency braking and a blind-spot information system with cross-traffic alert, will allow you to drive confidently.

High-End Interior With a View

The interior has a lot to offer with the Tri-Diamond perforated leather seating, hexagon carbon-fiber-lined front dash, and the precision-engineered center console with rotary gear shift dial designed to give a regal look. The first- and second-row Captain’s chairs, along with the available third-row PowerFold seats, provide comfortable seating for seven. With the available twin-panel sunroof, you can all enjoy panoramic views of the sky above. 

The 10.1-inch portrait LCD touch screen gives you connectivity at your fingertips in an intuitive and easy-to-use interface. Pair it with an available 14-speaker premium B&O sound system for the ultimate in entertainment. There’s also SYNC3, FordPass Connect with a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hot spot, available wireless charging, and auto-dimming driver-side mirror.

These are just a few of the multitude of reasons that families absolutely love the all-new, redesigned 2020 Ford Explorer. Come down to Town and Country Ford in Pell City to speak with any of our friendly, knowledgeable staff and get yourself behind the wheel of one today.
