The 2012 Ford Explorer has two engine options: a naturally-aspirated 3.5-liter V6 making 290 horsepower and a turbocharged 2.0-liter Ecoboost four-cylinder making 240 horsepower. Both are paired with a six-speed automatic transmission and Ecoboost models offer optional paddle shifters. The Ecoboost engine is only available when paired with front-wheel drive. Buyers who need all-wheel drive will have to stick with the V6. When paired with front-wheel drive, the V6 engine gets 18/25 mpg city/highway and the Ecoboost gets 20/28 mpg city/highway, according to the EPA. Thats one of the highest ratings in the class. All-wheel drive V6 models get 17/23 mpg city/highway, which is about average for a three-row crossover. The Ecoboost engine costs about $1,000 extra on each model, but according to the EPA, it will take owners less than three years to make up for that extra cost in fuel savings.

Safety may be one of the Explorer’s saving graces as it’s loaded with safety features. The 2012 Explorer comes standard with AdvanceTrac with Roll Stability Control and Curve Control. The Explorer also is features second-generation first-row airbags, side-seat airbags, and side curtain airbags. Optional on the Explorer are second-row inflatable rear belts. Packaged together with Ford’s Blind Spot Information System, the inflatable rear seat belts are designed to spread the impact of a collision across a broader area, reducing the pressure that a conventional seatbelt would cause.
