About This 2020 Ford Explorer XLT at Turbo Motors in Taylor, Michigan

At just under 99,000 miles, this 2020 Ford Explorer XLT sits in a comfortable range for a used SUV of its size and capability. The sixth-generation Explorer — introduced for the 2020 model year — was a complete redesign from the ground up, meaning this vehicle represents Ford's most modern take on the platform. Rear-wheel-drive-based architecture, a rear-mounted transmission, and a lower center of gravity all make the 2020 and newer Explorer a fundamentally different — and better — driving machine than its predecessors. Stock number 3292TM is your opportunity to get into that redesigned platform at a used price point.

2020 Ford Explorer Performance and Engine

The 2020 Explorer XLT comes equipped with Ford's 2.3-liter EcoBoost turbocharged four-cylinder engine — the same basic architecture found in the Ford Mustang EcoBoost. This engine produces 300 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque, delivering genuinely strong acceleration for a three-row SUV. Real-world drivers consistently note that the EcoBoost pulls confidently from a stop and maintains steady power at highway speeds.
 

10-Speed Automatic with SelectShift

Paired to that engine is Ford's 10-speed automatic transmission with SelectShift, which allows manual gear selection when you want more driver control. The wide gear spread keeps the engine in its sweet spot whether you're cruising I-75 through Wayne County or pulling onto the highway from a Taylor side street. The 4WD system adds traction confidence during Michigan winters — and anyone who's driven through a Michigan February knows how much that matters.

Ford Explorer XLT Features and Interior

The XLT trim sits above the base Explorer and brings a well-rounded feature set that makes it genuinely comfortable for families. Expect Ford's SYNC 3 infotainment system with an 8-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, tri-zone automatic climate control, a power liftgate, second-row captain's chairs or a bench depending on configuration, and a third row of seating for up to seven passengers. The XLT Sport Utility package on this particular vehicle also adds sport exterior styling cues that give it a sharper look on the road.

Driver-assist technology on this model year includes Ford Co-Pilot360, which packages automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-keeping assist, and automatic high beams — all standard on the XLT. These features aren't just conveniences; they make day-to-day driving genuinely less stressful.

Ford Explorer Reliability and Ownership

The 2020 redesign addressed many of the criticisms leveled at previous Explorer generations. Owners of the sixth-generation Explorer frequently praise its ride quality, interior space, and how much more composed it feels compared to the older front-wheel-drive-based models. The 2.3L EcoBoost engine has logged millions of miles across the Ford lineup and is widely regarded as durable when maintained with regular oil changes — Ford recommends full synthetic oil, and staying on schedule makes a measurable difference in long-term engine health.

At 98,768 miles, this Explorer is past its initial depreciation curve but still has substantial life ahead. With proper maintenance, the EcoBoost platform routinely reaches 150,000 to 200,000 miles. Buyers should confirm the service history and, as with any used SUV purchase, a pre-purchase inspection is always worthwhile for added peace of mind.
