Note

The 2026 Ford Explorer gets EPA-estimated 18 mpg city, 25 mpg highway and 21 mpg combined, which works out to roughly $2,000 in annual fuel costs. It comes with 3.0L 6-cyl Turbo or 2.3L 4-cyl Turbo engine options plus Rear-Wheel Drive or Part-time 4-Wheel Drive, and it has a fuel economy rating of 4.
