Ford Presents Refreshed 2025 Explorer

Ford has unveiled the 2025 Explorer SUV, which receives a mildly significant mid-cycle refresh. There are design changes, technological updates, the return of familiar powertrains... and the absence of another. 

The current generation of the Explorer launched for 2020, but its first few years on the market were rocky ones, with numerous glitches leading to recalls. 

Design of the 2025 Explorer
Aesthetically, the new model features a much larger grille. It should be noted that each variant will offer a distinct style. Redesigned LED headlights and wider air curtains are also visible on the front bumper. 

At the rear, the tailgate is also fresh, with new LED lights and EXPLORER lettering running the full width. New wheel styles from 18 to 21 inches are added to the range.
