Pricing information for 09/29/2026
The 2022 Ford Explorer ST-Line delivers exceptional value by including a comprehensive set of standard features uncommon at this price point.
Buyers who scrutinize spec sheets and compare feature lists will appreciate what the Explorer ST-Line offers for the investment. It targets families and individuals seeking strong comfort, connectivity, and safety without overpaying for options. In climates like Lakeland, FL, standard features such as rear air conditioning, rain-sensing wipers, and heated steering wheel add year-round practicality. The flexible third-row bench seat and split folding rear seat accommodate both passengers and cargo, making this SUV an intelligent choice for those prioritizing utility and feature content per dollar.
Performance is matched to value with a 2.3L EcoBoost I-4 engine, automatic transmission, and rear-wheel drive. This combination yields confident acceleration and smooth highway cruising, while the EPA-estimated 21 mpg city and 28 mpg highway ratings provide notable fuel savings over many midsize SUV competitors. Owners benefit from Ford’s efficient EcoBoost technology, which is designed to reduce fuel expenses and maintain low running costs. The Explorer ST-Line’s powertrain offers a strong balance of everyday usability and economy relative to its price category.
Safety features are a key value driver for the Explorer ST-Line, as it includes ABS brakes, electronic stability control, a rearview camera, auto high-beam headlights, rain-sensing wipers, dual front and side impact airbags, and knee airbags as standard equipment. These features, often bundled into costly packages on other SUVs, come included here. The SYNC 3 911 Assist emergency communication system and tire pressure monitoring further support safety without extra out-of-pocket expense, maximizing protection for you and your passengers.
The ST-Line’s Equipment Group 250A delivers a suite of desirable features: navigation, the B&O Sound System, heated steering wheel, power front seats, and remote keyless entry. The Class IV Trailer Tow Package increases utility for recreational or light-duty towing needs. Additional benefits include fully automatic headlights, power windows, power liftgate, and convenient rear air conditioning. With integrated SiriusXM radio and steering wheel-mounted audio controls, connectivity and entertainment are readily accessible, making daily drives more enjoyable without the need to purchase extra equipment.
Against competitors like the Toyota Highlander XLE and Chevrolet Traverse LT Cloth, the Explorer ST-Line stands out by offering navigation, a premium sound system, and heated steering wheel as standard—features that often require stepping up to pricier trims or option packages elsewhere. Its standard safety technologies and strong fuel economy further position it as a better value buy. The Explorer’s transferable 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty adds additional reassurance not always matched by rivals, helping maximize quality for your investment.
