The new Ford Explorer brings leading-edge safety technology to Pinconning families seeking assurance on every journey. With five distinct trim levels—Active, Tremor, Platinum, ST-Line, and ST—this mid-size SUV offers comprehensive driver assistance features designed to protect what matters most.

Standard Safety Excellence Across All Trims

Every new Explorer comes equipped with the Co-Pilot360 Assist+ suite of standard safety features. The foundation includes adaptive cruise control, collision mitigation systems, and a back-up camera. Drivers in Standish will appreciate the BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) that helps monitor surrounding traffic. Additional standard features include lane-keeping assist, automatic emergency braking, and evasion assist technology.

The comprehensive airbag system features dual-stage front airbags, seat-mounted side airbags, driver knee airbag, and Safety Canopy curtain airbags protecting all three rows. These passive safety features work alongside active technologies like AdvanceTrac with Roll Stability Control and hill descent control.

A Host of Helpful Driver Aids

Ford's Co-Pilot360 Assist+ suite represents the latest evolution in driver assistance technology. This advanced system includes lane centering, which actively helps keep the vehicle centered in its lane—a feature particularly useful during long drives to Midland. The system also incorporates speed sign recognition, intersection assist, and enhanced automated parking.

The aerial view camera system, standard on Tremor, Platinum, ST-Line, and ST trims, provides a bird's-eye view of the vehicle's surroundings. This technology proves invaluable when navigating tight parking spaces in Saginaw.

BlueCruise Hands-Free Driving

Available BlueCruise technology takes highway driving convenience to the next level. The Platinum and ST trims include a 90-day free trial of this hands-free highway driving assistant. Families traveling to Au Gres can experience reduced driver fatigue on compatible pre-mapped highways. The system uses advanced cameras and radar sensors to maintain lane position and following distance while allowing drivers to remove their hands from the steering wheel on approved road sections.

Trim-Specific Safety Enhancements

Higher trim levels add premium safety conveniences. The Platinum and ST models feature power-folding mirrors with auto-dimming capability, while rain-sensing wipers come standard on these upper trims. Forward and reverse sensing systems on ST-Line, Platinum, and ST models are helpful for urban parking situations.

The Tremor trim includes unique safety features like a mechanical limited-slip differential and front fog lamps. These features enhance visibility and traction in challenging conditions.
