Pre-Owned 2023 Ford Explorer XLT 4x4 in St. Louis, MO

The 2023 Ford Explorer XLT stands out as the smart choice among midsize SUVs, especially when cross-shopped with top rivals like the Honda Pilot and Toyota Highlander.

Shoppers building a shortlist of capable three-row SUVs will find the Explorer XLT especially appealing if they prioritize versatility, technology, and comfortable seating for up to seven. Its power liftgate and split folding rear seats simplify hauling sports gear or luggage, while dual-zone automatic climate control and heated front seats enhance comfort on chilly mornings. For St. Louis families facing unpredictable Midwest weather, the standard 4WD keeps daily commuting and weekend getaways smooth and secure.

Performance-wise, the Explorer distinguishes itself with its 2.3L EcoBoost I-4, delivering robust turbocharged power and efficiency that rivals often reserve for higher trims or larger engines. While the Honda Pilot emphasizes naturally aspirated V6 smoothness, this SUV’s engine combines spirited acceleration with the added grip of 4WD-ideal for confident highway merging or tackling slick suburban roads. The 10-speed automatic transmission ensures responsive shifts, supporting both relaxed cruising and quick overtakes.

Safety is a core strength for the Explorer XLT, particularly as it comes with a suite of standard active safety technologies like blind spot monitoring, a rearview camera, electronic stability control, and emergency communication via SYNC 3 911 Assist. Where competitors such as the Highlander may charge extra for similar advanced driver assistance features, the Explorer integrates these as standard, offering peace of mind at no additional cost. The inclusion of auto high-beam headlights and brake assist further supports attentive and safe family driving.

Feature content in this SUV is thoughtfully curated to maximize everyday convenience and enjoyment. The SYNC 3 infotainment system supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, keeping everyone connected on the go. Comfort is enhanced with heated unique cloth captain’s chairs, a leather steering wheel, and a power driver seat. The power liftgate and third-row bench seat make loading and accommodating passengers seamless, while the twin panel moonroof brings an airy, open feel to the cabin for all three rows.

Against alternatives like the Honda Pilot and Toyota Highlander, the Explorer XLT carves out a high-value proposition by combining turbocharged efficiency, standard 4WD, and a robust feature set. While rivals may tout reliability and comfort, this SUV’s competitive EPA-estimated 20 city and 27 highway MPG, along with a transferable 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty, make it an especially strong choice for buyers seeking durability and long-term satisfaction. In climates with diverse weather, its 4WD system is an advantage competitors often charge more to match.

Why choose the Explorer XLT over others? It offers turbocharged power and 4WD as standard, unlike many rivals. What does it offer that others don’t? Features like the twin panel moonroof and heated captain’s chairs are included, not relegated to expensive packages. Which SUV in this segment brings the best overall value? With its powertrain warranty and robust feature set, the Explorer stands out for cost-conscious families.
