State-of-the-Art Engine Power + Best-in-Class Comfort = The 2016 Ford Explorer Platinum

Owners of the 2016 Ford Explorer Platinum will point to the interior features as a major sales point. A dual panel moon roof, for instance, allows both rows of passengers fantastic views of the scenery around them, making it ideal for road trips. For its part, Ford is promoting the Sony Clear Phase sound system, standard on all Platinum models. This 12 speaker plus subwoofer setup utilizes Live Acoustics and Clear Phase Audio to give drivers and passengers an experience unavailable in any other vehicle. Moreover, the system itself is easily integrated with both iTunes and HD Radio.

These Platinum-exclusive aspects are, of course, on top of the Explorer’s state-of-the-art features. Buyers still get the heated steering wheel, the 3rd-row PowerFold bench seating, power-adjustable pedals, and SiriusXM radio. The difference is that all of this is on top of a much more powerful engine, a sleeker and more elegant design, and 20 inch dark-Tarnish painted pocket wheels. The wheels are a feature that buyers might not notice, but admirers certainly will.

It’s important to note the main features that have set the Ford Explorer apart from its competitors in the 2010s. Ford equips its SUV with Intelligent 4WD, Hill Descent Control, a Terrain Management System, and even trailer sway control to ensure that driver’s are in control at all times, and that no minor unexpected mishap detracts from the comfort of the ride.

Nothing the Platinum model puts in place detracts from that. The features on this exclusive model are there to supplement an already amazing vehicle – and to set it apart from any more common models that the neighbors might’ve picked up.

It’s an easy buy for drivers looking for state-of-the-art engine power alongside best-in-class comfort and the latest technological features.
