For 2013 the Ford Explorer will receive a minor refresh. Expect to see the outside appearance updated and a possibility of the twin-turbo 3.5L EcoBoost V6 being an option. If it happens, the addition of this engine will address the complaint of the Explorer being on the slow side. The other motors offered should see modest power gains. The interior should remain about the same with only a few changes. One change that would be welcomed is the simplification of the controls and touchscreen.

2013 Ford Explorer, the image evokes the rough and washing, offers a series of high-tech features in a family-sized crossover SUV you're looking for the best car for you, or a moderate off-road trails in the fight back to the impressive fuel economy.

These minor updates will keep the 2013 Ford Explorer at the top of the sales charts. Also in addition to these updates, a police interceptor model will be offered for 2013.

2013 Ford Explorer Release Date
