Thinking of buying the 2024 Ford Explorer Platinum?

No 2024 Ford Explorer Platinum is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. Here is what to know about the 2024 Ford Explorer Platinum before buying one.

Recalls and complaints

A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA has 21 owner complaints on file, mostly about suspension, unknown or other and forward collision avoidance.

The numbers in plain words

Its 2.3L 4-cylinder turbo drives through a 10-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

Combined fuel use is 9.8 L/100 km: about 29 litres for 300 km. Expect about $15.19 per 100 km at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,800 a year for 15,000 miles.

Living with the Explorer

Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.

When the Explorer makes sense

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

Try before you buy

Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. If the Explorer is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. A week with the Explorer answers more than any brochure.

Money matters

At our price setting, 100 km costs about $15.19 in fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Picking a year and a trim

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Compare the Platinum with the other trims of the same year before you decide. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.

Renting for Knobs

We rent from Toronto only. If your trip to Knobs starts in the Toronto area, rent the car here. CarmaCars is based in Toronto, about 692 km from Knobs, and does not deliver there.
