You can see that both SUVs share several similarities, but also several differences. Both models offer an available hybrid engine, but the Explorer offers a lower starting MSRP. While both models offer available rain-sensing wipers and a similar climate control system, the Explorer has the capability to tow several hundred pounds more than the Highlander (when properly equipped). It also offers one additional speaker with its available sound system than the available sound system of the Highlander. You'll also get the SOS Post-Crash Alert System™ with the Explorer. This feature is able to honk the horn and turn on the emergency flashers if the airbags are deployed.5 If you're ready to learn more about these features (and more) that the Explorer has to offer, we'd love to hear from you.

3Max towing varies based on cargo, vehicle configuration, accessories and number of passengers. When equipped with a 3.0L EcoBoost® engine with Class IV Trailer Tow Package.
4Before towing, confirm your vehicle and trailer are compatible, hooked up and loaded properly and that you have any necessary additional equipment. Do not exceed any Weight Ratings and follow all instructions in your Owner's Manual. The maximum you can tow depends on base curb weight plus the total weight of any cargo, occupants, and added vehicle equipment. "Added vehicle equipment" includes additional standard/optional equipment and accessories added by the manufacturer, dealers, and/or vehicle owners. The only way to be certain of your vehicle's exact curb weight is to weigh your vehicle without passengers or cargo. [Calculated with the new SAE J2807 method.] Installation of a tow hitch receiver or other accessories located near the rear bumper may require disabling or removing the kick sensor, and the sensor operation setting in your vehicle should be turned off. See Owner's Manual for limitations.
5Always wear your safety belt and secure children in the rear seat. SOS hardware may become damaged or the battery may lose power in a crash, which could prevent operation. Not all crashes will activate an airbag or safety belt pretensioner.
