From the wind noise, to the uncomfortable seats, blinding side view mirrors, to it being terrible in the snow…the list goes on!

Avoid the Explorer - the WORST in its class

2024 Ford Explorer Limited 4dr SUV AWD (2.3L 4cyl Turbo 10A)
7 of 15 people found this review helpful

Over the past year I have rented a 2024 Explorer Limited, VW Atlas, Jeep Grand Cherokee and Hyundai Palisade. I drove all extensively on the highway and around town over a week each. Explorer was the absolute WORST! Grand Cherokee is better, but far and away the best were the Atlas SE and Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy. The Palisade does a better Lexus than Lexus, is extremely roomy and very smooth. Also the only one with a V6. But the Atlas has the most cargo room and has the best handling. If you want luxury get the Palisade or if you prefer a driver’s SUV get the Atlas. However if you are looking for a car with the least storage space, most cramped interior and the worst engine / transmission combo out there then the Explorer is for you!

I had an Escape hybrid and have moved to the Explorer hybrid. It is so comfortable and bigger without feeling giant. I have been enjoying it greatly.

I don’t like the auto start button, you always have to turn it off😞 you should be able to turn it off permanently
