2023 Ford Explorer

vs 2023 Hyundai Palisade in Alexandria, LA

Make an entrance in the new 2023 Ford Explorer. This commanding SUV draws attention at every turn, but not just for its good looks. Under the hood, the available 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged EcoBoost® V6 engine roars with power, announcing your arrival with confidence. This engine’s efficiency and intensity stem from direct fuel injection, allowing it to surpass the performance of a typical gas engine. With this powerhouse propelling you forward — and with available intelligent four-wheel drive to keep you in control — you’ll have an unforgettable driving experience, no matter where you go. Inside the cabin, the Ford Explorer offers comfortable seating for up to seven (and plenty of versatility, too). The available PowerFold® third-row seat folds down with the press of a button, easily making room for extra cargo when you need it. Overhead, an available twin-panel moonroof will give your passengers a gorgeous view of the sky throughout your journey, and you’ll be able to enjoy your favorite music with this model’s Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility. Power, presence and practicality make the new 2023 Ford Explorer an SUV that stands out. Why not drive one home today?
