Do Ford Explorers have captain’s seats?

My partner and I have decided to trade in our trusty old Town and Country minivan for an SUV. We love the look of the Ford Explorer, but we want to make sure our two teenagers can sit comfortably in the back. Do Ford Explorers have captain’s seats?

You (and your teens) will be happy to know that yes, Ford Explorers do have available captain’s seats in all but one trim level.
Here’s a quick rundown:
  • Base trim: captain’s seats NOT available
  • XLT trim: second-row captain’s seats standard with second-row USB ports
  • ST-line: second-row captain’s seats and USB ports standard
  • Limited: heated, reclining second-row captain’s seats with USB ports and sunshades
  • Timberline: heated second-row captain’s seats with USB ports
  • ST: heated, reclining leather second-row captain’s seats with suede inserts, USB ports, and sunshades
  • King Ranch: heated, reclining, massaging leather second-row captain’s seats with suede inserts, USB ports, and sunshades
  • Platinum: heated, reclining, diamond-patterned leather second-row captain’s seats with suede inserts, USB ports, and sunshades
The Ford Explorer certainly has your back in both rows when it comes to comfort, and quite literally so, with massaging front seats available in higher trims. While we’ll leave the difficult trim decision to you and your family, you can leave the search for affordable car insurance to
