Do you need a powerful SUV that can accelerate quickly to get you out of dangerous situations and tow just about anything? If so, the 2022 Ford Explorer may be right for you. There are many SUVs on the market, and it can be hard to figure out which one is right for you. That’s why we’ve put together this complete guide to help you determine whether the 2022 Explorer is the perfect SUV to suit the needs of you and your family.

Basics About the 2022 Ford Explorer

The 2022 Explorer is an SUV that can tow as much as a light-duty pickup truck. Specifically, the towing capacity of both a 2022 F-150 and Ford Explorer start at 5,000. This large SUV debuted in dealerships around the country at the end of 2021, and people who have bought an all-new Explorer have been thoroughly satisfied with their purchase.

What Powertrain Makes This SUV Purr

When picking out your ideal 2022 Explorer, there are several factors to consider, including the powertrain. If you opt for a Limited, XLT, or Base trim, your SUV will get off the line fairly quickly thanks to a turbocharged four-cylinder 2.3L motor that puts out 300 horsepower. Also, you will note that your ride is smooth, not just thanks to the highly advanced suspension system but also due to the standard 10-speed automatic transmission.


2022 Explorer Trim Levels

Ford understands that there is not a one-size-fits-all SUV. Each family is different, and each vehicle needs to be customized to properly meet a family’s needs. That’s why you can choose from one of 10 trim levels while shopping for your brand-new Explorer. Your options are as follows: 

  • Base
  • XLT
  • ST-Line
  • Limited
  • Timberline
  • ST
  • Limited hybrid
  • Platinum
  • King Ranch
  • Platinum hybrid

Reasons to Look Forward to the 2022 Explorer

There are several compelling reasons to get excited for the 2022 Explorer. One such reason is the upgraded twin-turbo V-6 motor with an astonishing 3-liter displacement that puts out 400 horses. This is so exciting because the old V-6 motor could only put out 365 horses. You can get this motor, previously reserved for the ST trim, in King Ranch or Platinum 2022 Explorers.

The infotainment system in this SUV has also been overhauled.  If you opt for a Limited package, you can expect a 12-speaker Bang & Olufsen audio system that will make you appreciate your music on a level you didn’t know existed. You can also expect a number of other perks, including adaptive cruise control and much more advanced driver assists. Other upgrades include: 

  • Power-adjustable steering wheel
  • 20″ wheels
  • Heated steering wheel


The 2022 Explorer is the perfect SUV for you and your family if you want to be able to accelerate quickly, tow as much as a light-duty pickup truck, and comfortably transport everyone and their belongings.
