  • Reliability (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    While generally solid, some owners have reported minor electrical glitches or issues with power liftgates and panoramic sunroofs over time. Regular maintenance is key to long-term dependability.
  • Maintenance (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    Routine maintenance costs are typical for a large SUV, but certain repairs, especially those related to the turbocharged engine or advanced electronics, can be more expensive. Parts are readily available.
  • Technology (4)
    4 out of 5 stars
    Equipped with the SYNC 3 infotainment system, it offers good connectivity, a responsive touchscreen, and useful features like navigation and smartphone integration. Driver-assist features are also present and generally work effectively.
  • Comfort (4)
    4 out of 5 stars
    The interior is spacious and the Platinum trim provides high-quality materials, comfortable leather seats, and a smooth ride that absorbs most road imperfections well. Third-row access is manageable, though space is limited for adults.
  • Dynamics (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    The 2018 Explorer Platinum offers decent power from its EcoBoost V6, but the handling can feel a bit ponderous for a vehicle of its size, especially around corners. It's more geared towards highway cruising than spirited driving.
