If you’re after something sensible, practical, and just a little bit smug about how good it is, this 2026 Ford Explorer Extended Range Premium might be exactly what you’re looking for. With only one owner from new and a full service history, it’s been well looked after and is now ready to impress its next driver. Being fully electric and four-wheel drive, it’s got the brains and the muscle. The 84 kWh battery delivers up to 329 miles of range, so it’ll comfortably handle the daily commute, weekend getaways, and those “I’ll just pop out” trips that somehow turn into 50 miles. Charging is easy too – plug it in overnight at home and it’ll be ready to go in just over nine hours, or give it a quick boost at a public charger and you’ll be back up to 80% in about 29 minutes (just enough time to grab a coffee and pretend you didn’t also buy snacks). It’s not all calm and sensible though. Put your foot down and it’ll do 0–62 mph in 5.3 seconds, which is quick enough to make you grin and your passengers double-check they’ve got their seatbelts on properly. Inside, it’s where things get a bit fancy. The driver’s seat adjusts 12 ways, remembers your perfect position, and even gives you a massage – so technically, this car cares more about your lower back than most people do. You’ve also got a head-up display to make you feel like you’re in a fighter jet, a full 360-degree camera system to make parking look effortless, and wireless phone charging so you can finally say goodbye to cable spaghetti. The Matrix LED headlights are clever enough to adjust themselves and avoid dazzling other drivers, which is great news for everyone else on the road, and keyless entry means no more standing in the rain digging through your pockets. For peace of mind, the MOT runs all the way to March 2029 and there’s a generous 33-month warranty included, so you can just get in, drive, and enjoy it without any worries. All in all, this Explorer is quick, comfortable, packed with tech, and ridiculously easy to live with.
