The Ford Explorer has been labeled as a mid-size SUV ever since its inception. This type of vehicle is essentially a truck with raised ground clearance and typically features four doors. As the years have gone by, the size of the Explorer has varied with the introduction of new models. Initially, it had a smaller body which later grew in size to match the larger and more comfortable SUVs in its category. To be considered a mid-size SUV, the interior volume of the vehicle must range between 120 and 140 cubic feet as determined by the EPA. Anything exceeding this range is classified as full-size, while anything falling below is deemed a compact crossover.
