2022 Ford Explorer ST-Line
Keeping America’s all-time best-selling SUV hot, Ford Explorer ST elevates performance. New Explorer ST-Line model revs up athletic style.
2022 Ford Explorer ST lineup expands to include a rear-wheel-drive-only offering, delivering more on-road handling performance for ST enthusiasts; four-wheel drive remains available for customers whose adventures take on varying terrains
New Explorer ST-Line offers performance-inspired appearance and technology to customers who prefer the bold styling of Explorer ST but don’t need the ultimate in Explorer ST performance
Performance upgrades also coming to King Ranch® and Platinum series models courtesy of a standard 400-horsepower powertrain; other updates include standard Technology Package on King Ranch and Platinum and updated XLT Sport Appearance Package
For Ford Explorer customers who want on-road performance, as well as those who are more drawn to style, Ford is expanding the Explorer ST lineup with two new choices for the 2022 model year — the new Explorer ST rear-wheel-drive model and the new Explorer ST-Line series.
Now in its sixth generation, Ford Explorer continues to build on its strengths in the highly competitive midsize SUV segment. Ford Performance’s Explorer ST model accounts for nearly one in five 2021 Explorer sales, and expanded lineup gives customers even more options, whether they desire the on-road performance of rear-wheel drive or the performance-inspired style without maximum Explorer ST performance.
“We’ve taken Explorer, already the all-time best-selling SUV*, and given our customers the chance to put the emphasis on the things they value most,” said Jeff Marentic, Ford marketing manager. “For on-road performance and styling, our new rear-wheel-drive Explorer ST and new Explorer ST-Line are specifically designed to appeal to new customer groups with different adventure needs.”
The new Explorer ST family models join the adventure-ready Explorer Timberline, the most off-road-capable Explorer ever, in the 2022 Explorer lineup.
