Dealer Notes
Dressed in Agate Black Metallic with a sleek spoiler and 18-inch Sparkle Silver-Painted Aluminum wheels, the 2026 Ford Explorer Active looks like it showed up to every other SUV's party and immediately became the most interesting person in the room. The Space Gray interior keeps that cool, confident energy going strong, with Heated ActiveX Captain's Chairs up front that make every seat feel like first class. Honestly, this Explorer doesn't just turn heads, it practically causes whiplash. Under the hood sits a 2.3L EcoBoost I-4 engine paired with a smooth 10-Speed Automatic transmission sending power to all four wheels. With 27 MPG on the highway, this Explorer is proof that you really can have your cake and eat it too, or in car terms, have your horsepower and not drain your wallet at every gas station. The Active Comfort Package, Remote Start System, Heated Steering Wheel, and dual-zone automatic climate control mean you'll always be comfortable no matter what the weather outside thinks it's doing. And with a third-row bench seat, there's plenty of room for the whole crew, even the ones who never stop asking are we there yet? Safety features are stacked so deep here that this Explorer practically has a black belt in protecting its passengers. You get ABS brakes, Electronic Stability Control, multiple airbags, Emergency 911 Assist, and a Rear Parking Camera, because parallel parking is stressful enough without adding a guessing game. Navigation, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and SiriusXM with 360L make sure you're always headed in the right direction, literally and musically. At $39,499, this is one seriously well-equipped SUV that steers you straight toward a great deal. Ready to take the wheel? Give us a call at 978-228-5021 and our team at AutoFair Ford of Haverhill would love to set you up with a test drive. We promise the Explorer will do all the convincing once you get behind that Heated Steering Wheel. Come see us and let's get you rolling!

Explorer

So far so good - smooth ride - plenty of power for a 2.3 liter 4 cyl which coming from someone who drove a 5.0 V8 for 20 yrs- much better on gas… - 4.0
Served our family well!
By Beth | on 2/19/2026 11:46:55 PM
Trading my car in next week, I am gonna miss my Explorer. It’s been a good family car. Draw backs: the screen is glitchy at times. Some electronics malfunctioned and I won’t lie, they can be costly to fix. Comfortable, spacious. I never had any mechanical problems with the car, but I did take very good care of it at well. I maintained all recommended services and any replacements were all genuine Ford parts. I hope whoever buys our car, loves it as much as we did.…
