      2027 Ford Explorer Platinum: Elevated Luxury and Uncompromised Performance

      The 2027 Ford Explorer Platinum represents the pinnacle of refined three-row SUV design, seamlessly merging executive-level cabin comfort with athletic capability. Wrapped in a striking Avalanche Gray finish, this high-tier SUV is crafted for discerning drivers who demand a quiet, composed ride without sacrificing all-weather confidence. Whether navigating your daily routines around Terre Haute or heading out on extended weekend road trips, the Explorer Platinum delivers a serene environment backed by intelligent engineering. From its upscale Salt Crystal Gray interior to its whisper-quiet cabin acoustics, every element has been thoughtfully curated to elevate your time behind the wheel. Explore our new Ford inventory to discover how this flag-bearer of luxury redefines family travel.

      Performance & Capability

      Under the hood of the 2027 Ford Explorer Platinum resides a powerful EcoBoost 3L V-6 direct injection engine. Featuring twin turbochargers, variable valve control, and a durable iron engine block, this refined powertrain delivers an impressive 385HP for effortless highway merging and authoritative passing power. The engine pairs directly with an advanced 10-speed automatic transmission featuring driver-selectable modes, ensuring precise gear shifts and optimized efficiency. Driving confidence comes standard thanks to an Intelligent 4WD automatic full-time four-wheel drive system working in tandem with Selectable Terrain Modes and Hill Descent Control. Underneath, an independent strut front suspension and multi-link rear suspension absorb road imperfections with ease, while dual underbody skid plates provide underlying protection. For towing needs, Class III towing equipmentâ€"complete with a factory hitch and trailer sway controlâ€"ensures your cargo remains steady and secure on every journey.

      Advanced Technology & Connectivity

      Inside the driver-centric cabin, cutting-edge technology keeps you seamlessly connected and informed. The centerpiece of the dashboard is a massive 13.2-inch primary touchscreen monitor paired with a customizable 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster display. Integrated navigation with voice activation offers clear, real-time traffic guidance, while wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smart device integration allow quick access to your favorite applications. Audio performance is truly audiophile-grade, driven by a 14-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system powered by a 980W regular amplifier and digital signal processor. Passengers throughout all three rows stay charged up via eight dedicated USB ports and an interior 120V AC power outlet. Active noise cancellation ensures the cabin remains peaceful, allowing the acoustic quality of the sound system to truly shine.
