2024 Ford Explorer: Specs, Engine, & MPG

2024 Ford Explorer Timberline
 

While the 2024 Ford Explorer does come with some off-road capability if you opt for the Timberline® trim, it is arguably more suited as a suburban family vehicle. That said, while it is more at-home cruising down the streets of Dubuque than kicking up dust on a dirt road, the Ford Explorer specs are more than sufficient for your family’s everyday needs. 

 

 

Here, we’ll describe the Ford Explorer engine options available to you, and their performance on important metrics like the Ford Explorer mpg rating. Read on to learn more, and contact us if you have more questions or want to tour our inventory! We’d love to have you.

Wondering about how often you’ll need to fuel up while running those weekend errands in Galena, IL? Well, we’re here to let you know that the Ford Explorer’s mpg rating is affected by two main factors: the engine and drivetrain.
