But it still offers solid refinement, and its three engine offerings give it a lot of versatility. The Explorer's list of tech-oriented features is long, yet it's user-friendly. The Ford Explorer is considerably more appealing than others and as such garners a stronger rating. We were wowed by the handling, which transforms the Explorer from ponderous to sporty without ruining the ride. Driving The Explorer is indeed sporty, thanks to its stiffer suspension tuning, quicker steering and our test vehicle's optional summer performance tires. The result is lots of speed and impressive handling and braking. Comfort Given the Explorer Sport's handling prowess, we expected ride quality to suffer. We were wrong. The seats are also comfy and supportive. Interior We're glad Ford finally got rid of the touch-sensitive controls on the Explorer's center stack. We highly recommend the optional sliding second-row bucket seats — you lose a seat but gain comfort as well as better third-row access and space. Utility There's a good variety of cabin storage overall.
