If you're weighing a 2021 Ford Explorer, the short answer is yes — it earns a look for spacious three-row interior seats up to seven, and confident EcoBoost engines with good fuel economy. The honest trade-off: third row seating feels snug for adults. This example sold for $26,995, showed 158,979 km and is rated an official 11.8 L/100km combined.
This 2021 Ford Explorer in Black is a well-equipped 4x4 with third-row seating for the whole family, rolling on the proven 2.3L EcoBoost engine. With 158,979 km on the odometer, it's priced to move at $26,995 and comes loaded with Apple CarPlay, heated seats, and tri-zone climate control. A practical, capable SUV ready for Ontario winters.
What stood out about this one
I've had a lot of Explorers come through our lot at South West Auto Group, and this one caught my attention because of how well-equipped it is for the money. Black on black, third row, 4x4 — it checks a lot of boxes for London-area families who need room to grow.
The 2.3L EcoBoost in these Explorers has proven itself to be a solid engine, and paired with 4-wheel drive, this one is ready for anything Ontario winters bring. I always tell my customers to look at what's actually included, and this Explorer doesn't skimp — heated seats, remote start, power liftgate, tri-zone climate, it's all here.
My team and I have gone through this vehicle and priced it to reflect its kilometres, so you're getting real value. If you've got questions about this Explorer or want to book a test drive, come see us in London — we're happy to walk you through everything it offers.
