Available Trims

The classic Explorer has improved year after year, with several new trim levels introduced for 2021 – including a plug-in hybrid option and a rugged model for off-road adventures. Check out the following 2021 Ford Explorer trim levels at your Manning Ford dealership:

  • Base model Explorer
    The most affordable 2021 Explorer in the line-up includes LED high beam headlights and taillights, 18-inch silver-painted wheels, a power-operated liftgate and cloth interior upholstery. Three-zone automatic climate control comes standard, making the cabin comfy for each passenger. The front dash features an 8.0-inch infotainment touchscreen and 6.5-inch gauge cluster display.
  • XLT
    The XLT trim includes luxurious upgrades like chrome accents on the grill and front heated seats. Hands-free keyless entry with push-button start and a suite of driver assist features add convenience to your commute.
  • Limited
    This upgraded trim comes with a fully chrome-finished grille, side mirror turn signal repeaters and perforated leather upholstery. Like the list of available luxury features, the wheel size also increases – now 20 inches. Power-folding third row seats and one-touch folding second-row captain’s chairs make loading/unloading a breeze. Plus, even the rear seats are heated!
  • ST and Enthusiast ST
    Standard Explorer ST features are similar to the Limited trim, but with the addition of leather upholstery and all-wheel drive. The all-new Enthusiast ST boasts leather upholstery, a massive 12.3-inch digital gauge display and a heated steering wheel. While both trims are powered by a twin-turbocharger V-6 with 400 horsepower, the Enthusiast ST (rear-wheel drive only) comes with a lower price tag than the ST trim.
  • Platinum
    The Explorer Platinum comes with upscale two-tone leather upholstery, wood trim and a 12.3-inch digital gauge display. Exterior styling is just as impressive, with 21-inch wheels ensuring the Platinum trim stands out among the competition. Under the hood you’ll find a twin-turbo V6 and standard rear-wheel drive – with all-wheel drive available. The year’s model also adds a plug-in hybrid powertrain option.
  • King Ranch
    A new addition to the 2021 Ford Explorer line-up, the King Ranch comes standard with 20-inch wheels, a stunning mahogany leather interior, and eye-catching King Ranch emblems. Like the Platinum, the King Ranch is powered by a twin-turbo V-6 engine.
  • Timberline
    New for 2021, this rough and rugged Ford Explorer is designed to tackle any terrain with ease. Equipped with improved ground clearance, steel skid plates, limited-slip differential and Bridgestone Dueler all-terrain tires, the Timberline is built for the road less travelled. Plus, check out this trim level’s Standard Terrain Management System and its beefier springs, shocks, and stabilizer bars.
