2020 Ford Explorer First Drive: Charting New Territory
With 2019 being a really big year for three-row mid-size SUVs, Ford had to give the redesigned 2020 Explorer big changes to keep up with a tightly packed class including two new South Korean entrants: the Kia Telluride, which is awesome, and the Hyundai Palisade, which I’ll be testing soon. And big changes it got, with the 2020 Explorer receiving a full redesign that includes a new rear-wheel-drive platform (replacing its front-drive-based structure), plus updated styling and two new trim levels.
Those new trims are the Explorer Hybrid and performance-focused 400-horsepower Explorer ST.
