Dealer Comments

The 2016 Ford Explorer XLT stands out for buyers who prioritize value, offering a rich selection of standard features rarely matched by SUVs at this price point.

Analytical buyers in the St. Louis area and beyond will appreciate how the Explorer XLT's standard feature list directly addresses real-world needs. This SUV is designed for families and practical drivers who want three-row flexibility, robust safety technology, and everyday comfort without wading through expensive optional packages. The inclusion of SiriusXM radio, a leather steering wheel, and split-folding rear seats means convenience and family versatility are already built in. If you value spreadsheet-level comparisons, the Explorer XLT's equipment and utility give it a clear edge over many rivals in the midsize SUV class.

The 2.3L I4 EcoBoost engine paired with a 6-speed automatic with Select-Shift transmission delivers a compelling balance between performance and cost efficiency. With EPA ratings of 19 city and 28 highway MPG, it offers better fuel economy than many V6-powered competitors, translating to noticeable fuel savings over time. The front-wheel-drive layout further helps enhance efficiency and reduces mechanical complexity, lowering both day-to-day running costs and long-term maintenance expenses. For buyers who want confident acceleration and responsive highway manners without paying a premium or sacrificing efficiency, the Explorer XLT offers a strong value proposition.

Safety value is a highlight, as the Explorer XLT includes a comprehensive suite of features without requiring extra spending. Standard equipment such as ABS brakes, dual front and side impact airbags, knee airbag, electronic stability control, traction control, and an exterior parking camera provide peace of mind from the start. Emergency communication via 911 Assist and rear parking sensors add layers of protection at no additional cost, while other brands often charge extra for these systems. Buyers benefit from knowing that key safety technologies are already included, maximizing safety per dollar spent.

This SUV features a robust package of comfort and convenience amenities, all included as standard. You'll find air conditioning for all three rows, power windows and mirrors, remote keyless entry, a security system, steering wheel-mounted audio controls, and a trip computer. Speed control, variably intermittent wipers, and a power-adjustable driver's seat enhance daily usability. SiriusXM radio, a CD/MP3-capable stereo, and Bluetooth® connectivity cater to tech-savvy families. Rear air conditioning and split-folding third-row seats ensure adaptability whether you're carpooling or packing for a road trip.

Against direct competitors like the Honda Pilot EX and Toyota Highlander LE, the Explorer XLT distinguishes itself by including power passenger seat adjustments, rear parking sensors, and SiriusXM radio as standard equipment-features that often require an upgrade on those rivals.

What do you get as standard equipment? The Explorer XLT comes with third-row seats, a power driver's seat, rearview camera, rear parking sensors, SiriusXM radio, and leather-wrapped steering wheel-all standard. Is this vehicle worth the price? Given its long list of included features and fuel-efficient EcoBoost engine, it presents a high-value proposition.
