Preston For Life

Ford Explorer Timberline Towing Capacity

Options Galore

There are three engines on the Ford Explorer that allow the SUV to tow upwards of 5,000 lbs. with the Class IV Trailer Tow Package. Using the 3.0L EcoBoost® engine, the Ford Explorer ST and the Ford Explorer Platinum can each tow up to 5,600 lbs. We encourage all adventurers to try out the Ford Explorer Timberline, which features a 2.3L EcoBoost® engine, off-road capabilities and upgrades, and a towing capacity of 5,300 lbs. These are the highest towing capacities that Ford Explorers are able to handle under the gas configuration. As a hybrid, the SUV is almost as strong. A 3.3L hybrid engine provides impressive fuel efficiency on top of a maximum towing capacity of 5,000 lbs. It is perfect for those who wish to save on gas without sacrificing their ability to bring along equipment for a camping trip or day at the lake. Our experts want to help ensure that your vehicle has everything needed to support you and your family, so allow us to help you find the perfect Ford Explorer.
