Different Generations of Used Ford Explorer for Sale
The modern Ford Explorer is part of the sixth generation that started in 2020, meaning that you can find a performance-tuned used Ford Explorer ST with a 400-horsepower 3.0-liter EcoBoost V-6 engine or a used Ford Explorer hybrid with a 318-horsepower 3.3-liter engine that has similar performance to the newest edition. Other powertrain options from this generation include a 300-horsepower 2.3-liter EcoBoost I-4 and a 365-horsepower 3.0-liter EcoBoost V-6.
The generation before that went on from 2011-2019. From 2019, you can find trims with a 3.5-liter V-6 engine delivering 290 horsepower, a turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder delivering 280 horsepower, and a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V-6 that achieves 365 horsepower.
For another three-row SUV with even more horsepower in some instances, you should also check out an available used Ford Expedition. Keep in mind, however, that the Ford Explorer is generally more fuel efficient, especially if you opt for the hybrid.
