In this exhilarating review by TheStraightPipes, the 2025 Ford Explorer St takes center stage with its impressive 400 horsepower and 4115 lb-ft of torque from a 3L Ecoboost V6 engine. The team delves into the power delivery, sound quality, and minor vibrations experienced during the drive. Amidst the performance tests and brake evaluations, they make a triumphant announcement - the much-beloved Cliche Corner is back in action, marking a glorious return after flood damage repairs.

As they push the Explorer St to its limits, the team navigates through discussions on the updated infotainment system, exterior design changes, and the peculiar downward-pointing exhaust tips that spark a comical debate. They commend the spacious rear seat room, cargo capacity, and family-friendly features, highlighting the practicality of this SUV for daily use. The driving experience is thoroughly dissected, from handling and steering feedback to the nuances of the transmission and the effectiveness of the blue Cruise self-driving system.

Diving deeper, the review touches on essential details like the presence of a dipstick, the recommended oil for the Explorer St, and the practicality of the interior layout, including the wireless carplay feature. The team's critique extends to the stiff suspension, heavy steering feel, and the lack of adjustability in certain aspects of the car. Despite these minor qualms, the Ford Explorer St emerges as a versatile and capable SUV, offering a blend of performance, comfort, and family-oriented practicality that appeals to a wide range of drivers.
