2025 Ford Explorer in Bloomington, IN
The Ford Explorer was among the first popular models of the modern SUV era and has been thriving for six generations. Today, it remains among the most appealing midsize three-row SUVs in the segment, renowned for its comfort, capability, safety, and practicality. A mid-cycle refresh for the 2025 model year has made the Explorer experience even better with upgraded amenities and tech, more refined accommodations, and a bolder exterior design. Drivers from Bedford to Martinsville can buy or lease the 2025 Ford Explorer here at Community Ford of Bloomington.
2025 Ford Explorer Interior Design
The 2025 Ford Explorer's spacious and accommodating cabin is a nice place to spend time. It offers comfortable seats, modern interior design details, and quality materials, including new soft-touch surfaces, available quilted panels, and aluminum trim. The standard layout includes a second-row bench and seating for seven. However, Seymour shoppers who don't need the additional seatbelt can select captain's chairs for a more open cabin feel and easier access to the back seats. The cargo area expands from 16.3 to 46 cubic feet with the third row folded. When your Ellettsville outings require even more storage capacity, you can fold all rear seats for 87.8 cubic feet.
The 2025 Explorer is generously equipped with many comforts and conveniences, including standard features like proximity entry, a power liftgate, three-zone automatic climate control, and heated, power-adjustable front seats.
