Stone Motors Inc. in Middlebury, we're excited to offer this exceptional vehicle to drivers throughout Vermont. Whether you're navigating daily commutes or embarking on weekend adventures, the Explorer provides everything you need for a confident driving experience.
Bold and Commanding Design
The 2027 Ford Explorer makes a striking impression with its bold exterior styling. Measuring 198.8 inches in overall length and 78.9 inches in width, this SUV commands attention on every road. LED headlamps with auto high-beam technology illuminate your path, while available fog lamps enhance visibility during challenging weather conditions. Families in Burlington will appreciate how the Explorer exterior balances muscular aesthetics with refined details. Wheel options range from 18-inch aluminum to striking 21-inch designs depending on your chosen trim level.
Performance That Inspires Confidence
Under the hood, the 2027 Ford Explorer offers two powerful turbocharged engine options. The 2.3-liter EcoBoost I-4 produces 300 horsepower and achieves up to 24 MPG combined with rear-wheel drive, making it ideal for Vergennes drivers seeking efficiency without sacrificing capability. For those craving more power, the 3.0-liter EcoBoost V6 delivers an impressive 385 horsepower. Both engines pair with a smooth 10-speed automatic transmission. Drivers in Rutland County can choose between rear-wheel drive and automatic full-time four-wheel drive to match their lifestyle needs.
Spacious and Refined Interior
Step inside the 2027 Ford Explorer to discover a cabin designed for comfort and versatility. With 43 inches of front leg room and seating for six passengers, there's ample space for everyone. Cargo capacity reaches up to 85.8 cubic feet with the rear seats folded, perfect for hauling gear on Shelburne outdoor excursions. Captain's chairs offer available heating and ventilation, while premium materials like Miko suede and ActiveX seating surfaces elevate the interior experience. Rear climate controls ensure passengers in Addison County stay comfortable regardless of the season.
Cutting-Edge Technology
The 2027 Ford Explorer features a 13.2-inch color LCD touchscreen serving as your command center for entertainment and navigation. Google Assistant, Google Maps, and Google Play come integrated, while wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility keep you connected seamlessly. The available B&O Sound System by Bang & Olufsen with up to 14 speakers delivers concert-quality audio. Residents of South Burlington will enjoy the convenience of SiriusXM with 360L and voice-activated controls, making every journey more enjoyable.
