2022 Ford Explorer ST // Anything NEW for this 400hp Family Performance SUV?? 

Just got this same exact color ST yesterday. Fully loaded. Had a 2017 Camaro 2SS with the same color and definitely don’t regard trading the Camaro in. Space is nice, it looks nice, just enough HP, and has a lot of good features. Love it

These are perfect for making traffic slow down in front of you.

From someone who previously had a 2021 Durango r/t, a 2021 JCG limited 5.7 hemi, and currently a 2021 JGC L… comparably this supersedes every single one of them. My 2021 JGC was just totaled so I picked up the 2022 ST and I have zero regrets. This explorer is a sleeper ( super responsive and fast ) and is very underrated. The interior is very high quality (compared to my dodge) and the seating is very comfortable. I thought the infotainment would be awkward, but I actually really like it as it’s user friendly. Coming from a FCA customer, Ford really impressed me with this. If you’re on the fence, goto your local ford dealer and test drive one. It is one of the funnest cars I’ve ever driven by far. Like others said, the only con I have is the plastic trim on the exterior of the car.. kinda makes it look cheap. Easy to over look though since it’s such a great ride :)

I traded in my 2020 Platinum for a 2021 AWD ST and I LOVE it! Next time you get the chance to drive one, put it in sport mode. Its like a cat on a hot tin roof!!

I have this exact ST, color, options etc. Its not perfect but what is? Aside of that this is the most rewarding Family vehicle we have ever owned! My wife loves it as well as I. The ST is a beast! For a car enthusiast it doesn’t get much better hauling the Family around. It gives a luxury feel while also giving you a muscle car feel as strange as that may seem. From a dig, highway passing and in the curves, braking it does it all very well all while picking up groceries. The ST needs High octane fuel 93 where I live to make advertised hp and you can feel the difference if you cheap out. As far as the interior its not overly luxurious looking but it does give you that bad ass muscular feel. My only gripe is I wish my 2020 had red stitching on the seat ST logo. I have had it for 18k miles and a year and a half and every time I get in it it puts a smile on my face!!

Just picked up my 22 ST. All these people harping on the interior. It’s actually very nice and not cheap at all.

I like that you guys are not just filming your face talking while you’re driving. I appreciate that you guys are finding new creative shots to showcase the interior and dashboard. Around the 20 minute mark is where I’m referring to. Appreciate the effort. Good work bro

These are really nice! Keeps getting better & better every Gen! The 400hp Ecoboost pulls like a rocketship. Have had 3 Ecoboost vehicles so far an never disappointed.

Explorer is an iconic brand which has come a very long way - great review, guys! I always look forward to your reviews because they cover such a wide array of vehicles - explains why your channel is so rapidly growing its subscriber base! Cheers!

The Explorer is a fantastic SUV. The aggressive ST adds 400 horsepower for performance and a load of technology options with a top line interior. Your tester is an nicely equipped copy with the Iconic Gray paint, performance red brake Calibers and black 20" rims with optional 21 rims. After recently viewing the 2023 version for China that has a full infotainment screen running across the dash front ending on the passenger side. Really hoping that becomes available in the US models. Maybe I missed it, but Ford gives you a track day driving class when you purchase an ST model where you can drive Your own vehicle or one supplied by Ford

I just bought a 2022. This will be my third explorer 2011, 2017, 2022 and 5 th ford. The 2011 was very comfortable, the 17 had great performance, and I am hoping the 2022 will combine both…

This car is always making me paranoid thinking it's a cop behind me 😭

They should make a red leather or gray, redesign the center screen, and make the badges red for the ST trim.

Thanks for the great review. I'm currently leasing a Ford Escape. My lease ends in a year and I plan to lease the new 2023 Explorer Timberline (maybe I might change my mind and upgrade to ST!) One thing that bugs me is the upright display. Because of the portrait/tall orientation, the reverse camera display is small. Unbelievable that Ford did not pay more attention to the user interface.

My first performance SUV!! Great job bro.

I LOVE my 2022 explorer we have the st with high package and LOVE the simplicity in the interior. I had the 2015 Ford Edge titanium and it was just way too much. It would get stressful just to try and change the temperature if nobody was in the car for you to do it. Some people think the more the merrier and the “cooler” it looks but i think the opposite. I was afraid to get the high package but i love it! Since i built mine i got the forged green

We love our 2014 explorer, no problems at all, all most 200k Thanks

I won a 2022 Explorer ST last week. Picked it up in Florida and drove it back to Texas in two days. This is one sexy, FAST, SUV! I like the drive modes (Normal, Economy, Sport, Trail). Paddle shifters, I don't mind the infotainment center like it is. It's the 400 hp, 3.0 litre, twin-turbo Ecoboost that I like. 10-speed transmission; every gear, it wants to go faster. It's scary fast! LOVE this SUV! The one I won is this same color as well. AWD handles perfect, I caught a bad storm in Louisiana, and this Beast handled so good. Great braking, I fell more in love with it, every mile I drove it.

They should use the same center dash stack as the F-150/250/350 with 12.5 inch display and Sync 4 with wireless CarPlay/AA. No excuse using a small screen with Sync 3.

There is literally one right behind me right now!!!

I still wish the ST logo on the seats was red.

Had you put it in sport mode you would have noticed better performance than the normal setting that you had it set at.

On the design side and looks, they have overtaken the Toyota 4Runner. The 4Runner disappoints me these days.

Just ordered an all black ST. The premium technology package is not standard. It's a $1295 option. Other than that, this was a great review

It’s such an impressive powertrain for a midrange family SUV but the interior is just so disappointing

Man that SUV is sexy. I always liked the Explorer but never trusted Ford lol 😆.

The Explorer ST is a superior vehicle compared to the Toyota and Korean SUV's. Better rear drive based chassis vs front drivers for the others. Superior drivetrain. Its faster, brakes better, handles better, better 4 wheel drive modes. Looks much better.

I like the Explorer but that big tablet in the middle is just placed wrong I wish it was more embedded in the dash and Horizontal and not vertical

The driver seat clicking/rattle develops at 10,000 miles. It's like a loud turn signal clicking. Its quite common apparently.

Everything looks good exept for that interior screen

Hopefully the 2022 is better electronically than the 2020. Ordered the '22 because I love the ST, but had to replace the drive sensor module twice (thankfully I got the best warranty offered by Ford), and brought it in for two recalls all over a span of about 2 years.

I've been waiting for the next generation 4Runner for years - but Toyota just announced that it's been delayed until at least 2023/24 - so the Explorer ST is probably my next best option.

Thanks for the video, but what's actually new for 2022 on the ST over 2021? Anything new? You didn't really tell me (apart from the massaging seats as standard).

I hated the front end look of these cars but watching this, the front end reminds me of an Acura and I actually really like that

The 360 camera is small with the style they should have had the back up on top and the 360 on the bottom that way they could have made them a little bit bigger.

This is nice but I like the interior of the Chinese one especially the new one they getting. I hope ford brings that interior and the nicer exterior over here for 2023 model year. Because right now I would get the jeep over this.

The PD version looks dope

This 2022 Ford Explorer Has All The Bells & Whistles

I can tell what these cars are from far away it’s genetics now to spot an explorer on the highway

grand Cherokee l will join the competition, Ford needs to keep up

North America is still missing out on that PHEV ST though available in Europe

Portland, JAMAICA in The Building !!!!!!

It's a bit silly that they haven't put Sync 4 in this yet.

they REALLY need to upgrade the infotainment system, that screen looks like it was just glued there, other than that, its a beautiful suv

I have always wanted a Ford Explorer

They need to redesign the center infotainment screen. Looks like a glued on tablet.

I love ford and I love the Explorer st,but I think the grand Cherokee l is better

Nice review on the explorer ST. Keep up the good work.

Looks nice on the outside but that infotainment system looks like a Amazon tablet with a tablet holder on the bottom….

Performance wise, this and the Durango R/T and 392 are it in this class. Ford carved out a niche with the ST(nee Sport). I also like the comfort of the Explorer. But the entire vehicle is drastically let down by a subpar interior. The cheap plastics, the huge and misaligned joint gaps of interior pieces, the seams on the molded plastics, and overall layout and design seems a couple of generations behind. Especially against a JGC and Telluride/Palisade.

Great review one thing I noticed you didn’t have any sport mode when you were driving around

I love your videos so much

I would of bought one of these had the interior been more appealing. The screen has to go and need more color options for the leather. Got me a telluride instead.

Everything look nice, except for the weird and awkward 10" screen orientation that just don't make any sense and defeats the whole purpose of a 10" screen. Had they made it rotate landscape to make full use of the whole 10" screen and hide it when not in use would be a game changer. In terms of cargo space, it's rather small for an suv. I hate cramped space that just feels like claustrophobic when you sit. 204" should've been the ideal length for a proper real family suv for comfort.

Which one is good. Please tell me. 🙏🏻

It’s funny watching a review video on the vehicle I assemble. Some of the stuff mentioned is kinda silly.

Great review!

love all americans car brands

love the note about the coupons.

I always dream of owning an Explorer but couldn't convinced my wife.

Hello gentlemen. Good review video for the Ford Explorer in the ST trim. That's nice there's a performance model Explorer now. This will go up against the Dodge Durango SRT, but not the Durango SRT Hellcat. The Durango SRT will kill it coming in at 475 horsepower while the Durango SRT Hellcat will wipe it off the face of the earth coming in at 710 horsepower. The ST badging along with the gloss black rims and red brake calipers looks nice. The interior has nice features as well. As for the air ball and slam dunk there are more to add a piece for each. Another slam dunk would be for storage in the armrest console area and the cargo area. Another air ball would be for the infotainment screen. It's a nice size, but Ford did poor execution placing it on the dashboard. It looks like it was a second thought. The overall appearance of it regardless of trim level makes it look like it was tacked on via thumb tack, glue or duck tape. It should've been more integrated to the dashboard like most of the competitors to give it a much sleeker clean look. Maybe during a mid-cycle refresh model year they might change the appearance of that if they receive a lot of criticism about it. So, depending on the scenario the appearance change for the infotainment screen could happen during a mid-cycle refresh model year or if not that they will change it for the next generation Explorer. Let's see what happens when the time comes.

Drinking game: Drink every time he says "limited trim and above"

I wonder if those wheels fit in a maverick?

Man, this is why I watch the Car Wizard. "In-depth" review and I still don't know how the RWD engine is layed out longitudinal or transverse and what parts made of plastic are going to break on me long term. I know you guys aren't Car and Driver, but please at least lift the hood!

My dad wanted a Ford Explorer but we dont have the kind Of money😢😢

I was trying to convince my wife to go after one of these but I feel like she settled for the Telluride. Now there's all types of issues going on with the thing smh

People always say a Ford looks good but it also looks good on the back of a tow truck. Because Ford has so many issues with them.

I wanted an ST but that ugly add on looking screen ruins it for me. Otherwise, a fantastic looking vehicle.

That's kinda funny the year change but nothing on the Ford ST change.if you show the 2020 no need to show the 2022 it is a duplicate of the 2022.

Bring back the FLEX on this new platform

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ loving. It

Amazing video!

Not a ford guy but this truck is very nice I do like the screen tho they could have done better

Impressive vehicle from Ford but plastic cladding around the vehicle and portrait infotainment are only cons for me. Otherthan those a good looking SUV. Thank you for the video 🙂

I’ve got the 2020 Blue ST with Black package and wheels: oh my that was interesting to drive in NY the summer of love and riots. Literally had multiple incidents from fancy finger salute, coffee (we think it was coffee) thrown, and a group hanging out a low rider at a stop sign in Yonkers explaining how cops should be killed. Fun times. All said we love the vehicle and it is amazing on road trips with the dogs having tons of room in the back.

explorer st's are 70k before financing in arizona

i find the steering on my 2022 st is stiff? compared to my sienna,is that normal?

Is the Everest the same as the explorer? Is the explore off road capable?

Love it Just for me You can't actually any more than that

Fix the screen. Put the F150 screen in there and I'll buy

Ford needs to build a Ford explorer predator x with a supercharged 5.2l predator v8 detuned to 660hp,600ftlbs. Just imagine

I thought the 2022 Explorer had Wireless Carplay?

I’ll get one for family car in a 5 years Cz I got a focus st rn 🤣

I don't see many of them on the road I think they are way to expensive

That center vertical iPad. Otherwise, I really like this SUV. Here in VA they’ll think you’re VSP 👮‍♀️

Which model has the sideways display ?

Looks like a RANGEROVER

What’s the difference between explorer vs expedition?

Looks like a state trooper vehicle

Can You Make 2021 Cadillac XT4 Sport 350T

You can't turn the radio up during the car review because you will get a copyright.

Poor chap in the Chevy S10 @19:19 was probably reaching for his insurance and license.

Why do they have to put that radio dial...thanks

I wish it had better reliability

Is this considered a hybrid electric car?

I am not a fan of the tablet: looks way too narrow. Maybe making it like the Tesla and sideways it would look better.

So the exhaust shooting down and having those fake chrome tips makes me believe they still have the problem with the smoke making it inside?

WOW, $59K and no head-up display??? Great powertrain and that's it!!!

why would you buy an ST with less power?

Dude. Show the engine bay and talk more about drivetrain
