CarGurus Analysis: 2024 Ford Explorer

Summary
With 89 currently listed for sale and an average price of $42,970 CAD, 39.3% of 2024 Ford Explorer listings on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favourably reviewed: Owners rated the 2024 Ford Explorer 3 / 5 stars.
Why it stands out
The 2024 Ford Explorer stands out as a midsize SUV that has moved well beyond its rugged origins and into a more premium, more road-focused role. In this generation, it rides on the CD6 platform shared only with the Lincoln Aviator, and its rear-wheel-drive bias gives it better handling than any previous Explorer without sacrificing smoothness or refinement. That makes it one of the most engaging Explorers to drive, while still keeping the practical three-row layout that has long been part of the model’s appeal.
Powertrain choice is another major part of its identity. The entry engine is a 300-horsepower 2.3-litre EcoBoost four-cylinder, and the optional 3.0L EcoBoost V6 with twin turbochargers develops 365 horsepower and 380 lb-ft of torque. The ST trim raises output to 400 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque, giving the Explorer a genuinely quick character. A hybrid was also available from 2020 to 2023, combining a 3.3-litre hybrid V6 with a 1.5-kWh battery pack and electric motor for 318 horsepower and a combined fuel consumption figure of 9.6 litres per 100 kilometres, though Ford eliminated that option because it could not reliably build enough of them for consumers.
For buyers, the 2024 Ford Explorer offers a strong mix of equipment and versatility. Even the XLT includes push-button start, keyless entry, and Ford Co-Pilot360, while higher trims can add adaptive cruise control, lane centring, evasive steering assist, panoramic twin-panel moonroofs, and Bang & Olufsen audio. Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and at least four USB ports are standard, and seating can be configured for up to seven passengers or for six with second-row captain’s chairs. Its main drawbacks are that some desirable features are reserved for higher trims and that the initial 2020 models had a relatively high number of gremlins, but overall it is described as the nicest Explorer to drive and better in reliability than its predecessors.

It also makes sense if you value versatility, since even the XLT includes push-button start, keyless entry, and Ford Co-Pilot360, while higher trims add features such as adaptive cruise control, lane centring, evasive steering assist, panoramic twin-panel moonroofs, and Bang & Olufsen audio. With 37.5% of listings marked as good or great deals, the market offers some room to shop selectively.
Is the 2024 Ford Explorer reliable?
The 2024 Ford Explorer is described as better in reliability than its predecessors, and it keeps the same broad appeal of a practical three-row SUV with a more polished driving character. It also benefits from a mature platform and a familiar set of powertrains, which can help make ownership feel more predictable.
For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that some desirable features are reserved for higher trims, so you may need to balance equipment against the condition and maintenance history of the specific vehicle you choose.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Ford Explorer?
This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop with some leverage if you are patient and compare listings carefully.
- Deal availability: 37.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 403 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 17.29% compared with last year.
If you find a listing below $43,111 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2024 Ford Explorer's resale value?
The current average of $43,111 CAD sits slightly below last year's $52,123 CAD.
That price movement suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you buy at a more favourable point in the cycle. If you plan to sell later, the Explorer’s current pricing gives you a clearer benchmark for setting expectations, but it also means future resale will depend heavily on trim, mileage, and condition. A well-kept example should still be easier to position if it has the right equipment and a clean history.
Should I buy a 2024 Ford Explorer or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2024 if:
- 37.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 17.29% compared with last year.
Consider the 2025 if:
- At $52,425 CAD, the 2025 costs more than the current year's $43,111 CAD average.
- It adds updated infotainment and safety tech.
The bottom line: The 2024 is the better value if you want a lower entry price and are comfortable shopping the used market carefully. If you want the newer-feeling cabin and updated technology, the 2025 is the stronger upgrade, but price-sensitive buyers should start with the 2024 first.
