About the 2025 Ford Expedition

5th generation, first year (2025-present); complete redesign

The Expedition is Ford’s full-size family SUV, built around three-row passenger space, strong twin-turbo V6 power, trailer capability, and a choice of standard or extended MAX body lengths. Ford presents it as a road-trip and activity vehicle for large families, with an adult-friendly cabin, flexible cargo space, helpful towing technology, and a truck-based structure that separates it from lighter-duty three-row crossovers.

The Active is the family-focused mainstream model, with large displays, power-adjustable front seats, and a power-folding third row. King Ranch and Platinum emphasize comfort with leather seating and upscale cabin features, while the new TREMOR pairs a 440-hp V6 with extra ground clearance, underbody protection, and trail-driving aids. The XL is a fleet-only Special Service Vehicle for 2025.

What changed, by category

Powertrain

The core 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 and 10-speed automatic carry over, while the new TREMOR gets a 440-hp high-output version plus four-wheel drive, a locking rear differential, and specialized off-road drive modes.

Styling

Ford redesigned the front end, grille, lighting, dashboard, interior controls, and rear of the SUV. A power-operated split rear gate with separate upper and lower sections is standard across the lineup.

Safety

Adaptive cruise control, lane centering, blind-spot assistance, a 360-degree camera, evasive steering assistance, front parking sensors, and reverse brake assistance become standard across the range.

Tech

Every trim gets a 24-inch panoramic driver display and a 13.2-inch touchscreen running Ford’s new Google-based interface, along with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Trailer backup and hitch guidance systems are also standard.

Structural

The 2025 model begins the fifth-generation Expedition with a revised body and reworked interior packaging. It retains an independent suspension layout.
