The team at Napa Ford is thrilled to introduce the 2023 Ford Explorer, which is now available to test-drive, purchase and lease at our location. Updates for the new model year include more color choices, expanded standard equipment, additional options and refined technologies. Most models have a turbocharged four-cylinder engine but a turbo V6 and a hybrid V6 are also available. Rear-wheel drive is standard, but all-wheel drive is an option with all 2023 Ford Explorer trim levels.
Explorer Trim
The well-equipped base model for the 2023 Ford Explorer is simply called the Explorer. It has LED headlamps, 18-inch alloy wheels and a power liftgate. Cabin features include premium cloth upholstery, front bucket seats, a power-adjustable driver’s seat, a 35/30/35-split folding second-row bench, a 50/50-split folding third-row seat, tri-zone automatic climate control and a six-speaker sound system with satellite radio. The infotainment system includes Sync 4, an 8-inch touch screen, Apple and Android integration and FordPass Connect with Wi-Fi, and the suite of driver-assistance technologies includes automatic high-beam headlamps, a rearview camera system, forward collision mitigation, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic warning, lane departure mitigation and rear parking sensors.
XLT Trim
The XLT is the first of the up-level trims for the Explorer, and it’s notable not only for the standard equipment it adds but the options it opens up. This trim level adds keyless access, push-button ignition, roof rails and heated mirrors. It also upgrades the cabin with upgraded trim, heated front seats, a power-adjustable front passenger seat, second-row captain’s chairs and second-row USB ports. Give your XLT a sportier appearance with the XLT Sport Appearance package. Add a range of technologies to the cabin with the XLT Technology group, and even more driver assists with Ford Co-Pilot360+ Assist.
ST-Line Trim
The ST-Line builds on the XLT by adding many of its available options, and it has a sportier appearance package that is exclusive to the ST trim levels. Ford Co-Pilot360+ Assist is standard along with integrated navigation, a surround-view camera and wireless charging. Power-folding mirrors and 20-inch wheels are also standard, and this trim upgrades the cabin with synthetic leather seating, ambient interior lighting and a premium B&O audio system with 12 speakers.
Limited Trim
The Limited is the first of the luxury options among the 2023 Ford Explorer trim levels. It has a more upscale exterior due to more chrome trim and premium 20-inch wheels. It has all of the advanced driver assists mentioned thus far and also adds front parking sensors. The cabin is also upgraded with genuine leather upholstery, heated and cooled front seats, a heated steering wheel, heated and power-folding second-row captain’s chairs, ambient interior lighting and much more.
Other Trim Levels Trim
Those aren’t the only trim levels available for the 2023 Ford Explorer at Napa Ford. The Timberline slots in between the ST-Line and Limited. It’s based on the XLT trim level with the safety features from the ST-Line but also adds advanced off-road capabilities. Beyond the Limited, you have the ST. It’s a street performance-oriented model available with a wide range of packages through which you can customize it. The King Ranch builds on the Limited with even more high-end amenities and has a exclusive Western theme, and the top-spec Platinum boasts a broad array of exclusive features.
