What’s under the hood? How much can the Explorer Limited tow?
Although the Limited comes standard with the Explorer’s base powertrain — which is pretty impressive in its own right — you can also upgrade to the thrifty hybrid engine. It helps this three-row SUV earn up to 27 mpg combined (27 city/28 highway).
The Limited’s rear-wheel-drive platform adds to its sporty performance, with superb handling on winding roads. And you can also add optional all-wheel drive, traction-boosting gear that helps you take the show off the road, down light trails and through camping sites.
Properly equipped, an Explorer Limited with the base powertrain can tow a trailer weighing up to 5,300 pounds. The hybrid powertrain is almost as impressive, with max tow ratings of up to 5,000 pounds.
