Buying the 2024 Ford Explorer
No 2024 Ford Explorer is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Here is what to know about the 2024 Ford Explorer before buying one.
Before you sign for the Explorer
Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Owners filed 21 complaints with NHTSA, most often about suspension, unknown or other and forward collision avoidance; have those parts checked. There are 10 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done.
Engine and fuel
The powertrain here is the 2.3L 4-cylinder turbo with rear-wheel drive and a 10-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
By the EPA's combined rating of 9.8 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 29 litres. At our price setting, it costs about $15.19 to drive 100 km. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,800 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Room inside
An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length.
A good match for
It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage.
Try before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Drive the Explorer on your commute before you commit to it.
The cost of driving it
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $15.19 in fuel. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Choosing the right one
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
