¹ With the Class III / IV Trailer Tow Package (52T): the maker’s figure for the configuration with that factory option.
² Ford’s documents disagree: 4,345 lb (website) vs 4,458 lb (government data).

A dash means the maker’s documents we have don’t give that number for that configuration, and a column with no number for any configuration of the year isn’t shown. “Door label” means the maker prints it only on each vehicle’s certification label, and “not published” that the maker doesn’t print it, or points elsewhere. “Up to” is a ceiling the maker prints over several configurations; a range is the maker’s own, printed across the grades of that configuration.

02 / What changed

New for 2024

The 2024 Explorer against the 2023, the previous model year we hold. Only what Ford’s documents show: nothing here is inferred.

Dropped: 2 configurations (All trims 3.3L Hybrid V6 RWD and All trims 3.3L Hybrid V6 4WD).
Curb weight: 4,345–4,458 lb (2023: 4,345–4,969 lb).
Length: 198.8–199.0 in (2023: 198.8 in).
Same range as the 2023: towing and ground clearance.
Length differs on 1 of 5 configurations sold in both years: +0.2 in.

The 2024 documents

4 documents behind the 2024 Explorer’s figures. The maker’s own come first; a third-party page fills in only a number the maker doesn’t publish, and wears its own mark.

Documents last checked Oct 12, 2026. How we read them and what the marks mean: how we source the numbers. A figure doesn’t match its document? Report a wrong number.
