Choosing the right Ford Explorer in Crestview comes down to how your family uses it day to day. Whether you are running carpool routes around Crestview, towing a boat to Choctawhatchee Bay, or planning a road trip up I-10 to Pensacola, there is an Explorer trim built around your routine.
| Model / Trim | Best For | Key Benefit for Emerald Coast Drivers |
|---|---|---|
| Explorer Active | Family Value and Everyday Versatility | Standard 2.3L EcoBoost® power and Ford Co-Pilot360™ Assist+ give Crestview families confident, well-equipped daily driving without stepping up to a higher trim. |
| Explorer ST-Line | Sporty Style for Daily Driving | Sport-inspired styling paired with the same easy-to-use 13.2-inch touchscreen makes this a fit for Destin and Navarre families who want an Explorer with extra attitude. |
| Explorer ST | Performance-Focused Three-Row Capability | The standard 3.0L EcoBoost® V6 (400 hp) and sport-tuned suspension give ST drivers confident towing for trips to Choctawhatchee Bay or Santa Rosa Sound. |
| Explorer Platinum | Premium Comfort for Longer Drives | An available B&O® Sound System and Panoramic Vista Roof make Platinum a comfortable choice for families covering longer stretches of I-10 between Crestview and Pensacola or Panama City. |
Step One Ford Crestview keeps a rotating selection of Explorer trims, including Active, ST-Line, ST, and Platinum, plus the performance-tuned Explorer ST and upscale Explorer Platinum builds. Inventory changes frequently, so checking our new vehicle inventory or contacting our team directly is the fastest way to confirm what is currently on the lot.
All four are popular three-row SUVs, but the Explorer stands out with a standard Ford Co-Pilot360™ Assist+ safety suite, a standard 13.2-inch touchscreen, and an available 400-hp 3.0L EcoBoost® V6 on the ST trim. Every Explorer also offers Class III towing up to 5,600 lbs when equipped, which matters for Emerald Coast families hauling boats or trailers.
