Engine displacement is not the sole factor for fuel efficiency. You have to consider the bulk of the vehicle. A midsize car (Accord, Mazda6) with a 2.5L 4-banger engine will be more fuel efficient than a heavier crossover/CUV/SUV with a similar displacement engine.

The Explorer 2.0L Ecoboost shares the same turbo engine as the Escape 2.0L Ecoboost AWD. Despite being FWD only, its size is quite big so don't expect it to be similar in FC as the Escape or any CUV with a 2.4L-2.5L NA engine (CRV, CX5).

Good point! Since you're expected to spend a bit more on gas when driving an Explorer, I guess it's much better to just get the most powerful and quickest model, the Explorer Sport 3.5L Ecoboost V6.
