The 2025 Ford Expedition Revitalizes Family Adventures
Ford has unveiled the all-new 2025 Expedition, a full-size SUV that blends modern design, advanced technology, and enhanced versatility to cater to active families. With seating for up to eight passengers, the new Expedition offers a reimagined cabin experience, improved cargo management, and introduces the first-ever Expedition TREMOR for those seeking off-road adventures.
An Exterior Refresh: Modern Design Meets Functionality
The 2025 Ford Expedition sports a contemporary exterior design that sets it apart from its predecessors. The front end features a refined grille with sleeker horizontal bars, flanked by updated slim LED headlights that integrate seamlessly into the front fascia. The sculpted front bumper includes pronounced air intakes, adding a sporty touch to the SUV's appearance.
At the rear, the Expedition has been updated with more modern, sleek tail lights featuring sharp lines and a dynamic shape. The rear bumper has been reimagined with a sculpted look, utilizing advanced materials for a refined finish. These enhancements contribute to the Expedition's upscale and aerodynamic profile, distinguishing it from the 2022 model.
A Cabin Designed for Versatility and Comfort
Inside the 2025 Expedition, Ford has focused on creating a family-friendly environment that prioritizes space and flexibility. The cabin offers a reimagined experience with features like the new Ford Split Gate, a class-exclusive innovation that combines the convenience of a traditional SUV liftgate with the utility of a pickup truck tailgate. The Split Gate's lower section folds down to create a tailgate capable of supporting up to 500 pounds, transforming into a seating area or serving table, complete with nearby power outlets for tailgating or camping activities.
The Expedition introduces an available Flex Powered Console, allowing the front center console to slide back nearly eight inches at the press of a button. This feature provides secure storage in front and grants second-row passengers easier access to console controls and cup holders. Additionally, the new Third-Row Flexible Seating offers a 40/20/40 folding third-row bench seat, enabling the middle section to fold down independently. This configuration creates a central aisle for accommodating long items like skis or fishing rods without sacrificing seating capacity.
For added convenience, the Expedition offers Open-on-Approach technology. When you stand near the rear of the vehicle with the key fob, the Ford Split Gate automatically opens, making it easier to access the cargo area when your hands are full. Exterior zone lighting is also available, providing ample illumination around the vehicle through four lighting zones, perfect for nighttime activities.
Advanced Technology at Your Fingertips
The 2025 Ford Expedition introduces the new Ford Digital Experience, transforming the SUV into a family command center. The centerpiece is a class-leading 24-inch panoramic digital display positioned near the lower edge of the windshield to keep the driver's focus on the road. This immersive display replaces the traditional gauge cluster and allows for greater personalization through driver-specific profiles.
Connectivity is enhanced with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while voice control is facilitated by Google Assistant and available Alexa Built-in. The Ford Connectivity Package offers a Wi-Fi hotspot capable of connecting up to ten devices within a 50-foot radius, keeping the family connected on the go or during outdoor activities.
Passengers can enjoy entertainment apps from Google Play, including streaming music, audiobooks, and podcasts. When the vehicle is parked, the family can watch videos on YouTube or play games like the Ford-exclusive version of Asphalt Nitro 2 using a Bluetooth-enabled gaming controller.
The Expedition also expands the availability of Ford BlueCruise, offering hands-free highway driving on prequalified sections of divided highways. Available on nearly 90% of Expedition models, including the Platinum, King Ranch, TREMOR, and Active trims, BlueCruise now includes features like Lane Change Assist and In-Lane Repositioning for a smoother driving experience.
The First-Ever Expedition TREMOR: Ready for Off-Road Excursions
For families seeking adventure beyond the pavement, the 2025 Expedition introduces the first-ever TREMOR model, the most off-road capable Expedition to date. The TREMOR boasts a 10.6-inch ground clearance and rides on 33-inch General Grabber all-terrain tires, surpassing any other vehicle in its class.
Under the hood, the Expedition TREMOR is powered by a high-output 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine, delivering an impressive 440 horsepower and 510 lb-ft of torque. The SUV features a retuned suspension, electric power-assisted steering, Raptor-inspired running boards, a front skid plate, and underbody protection for critical components like the front axle, transfer case, and fuel tank.
Advanced off-road technology equips the TREMOR with Rock Crawl Mode, Trail Turn Assist, and Trail 1-Pedal Drive, making it ready to tackle rugged terrains. The TREMOR combines this capability with the spaciousness and versatility that families expect from the Expedition.
Enhanced Towing and Convenience Features
The 2025 Ford Expedition continues to excel in towing capability and introduces comprehensive towing and hitching technology. With the Pro Trailer Hitch Assist, hitching a trailer becomes effortless as the system aligns the hitch with the trailer coupler using the rear camera and radars, controlling the vehicle's speed, steering, and braking.
For backing up with a trailer, the Pro Trailer Backup Assist allows drivers to guide the trailer using a simple knob, while the system handles the steering. When properly equipped, the Expedition offers a towing capacity of up to 9,600 pounds with a weight-distributing hitch, and up to 7,000 pounds without the need for load-leveling bars.
Rear passengers haven't been forgotten. The new Digital Device Holder, mounted on the back of the front headrests, securely holds devices ranging from smartphones to tablets, making it easier for passengers to enjoy media or stay connected during the journey.
Performance Specifications and Trim Details
The 2025 Ford Expedition comes in four trim levels: Active, TREMOR, King Ranch, and Platinum. The standard engine across the Active, King Ranch, and Platinum trims is a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, producing 400 horsepower and 480 lb-ft of torque. The TREMOR and optional on the Platinum trim is the high-output 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine, offering 440 horsepower and 510 lb-ft of torque. Both engines feature twin turbos with electronic controls and are paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission.
Available in both standard-wheelbase and extended-length Expedition MAX versions, the SUV offers ample space for passengers and cargo. The standard-wheelbase models have a wheelbase of 122.5 inches and an overall length of 209.9 inches, while the Expedition MAX extends to a 131.5-inch wheelbase and 221.7 inches in length.
When it comes to dimensions, the Expedition features a minimum ground clearance of 8.7 inches for standard models and 8.8 inches for the MAX. The approach angle of 21.1 degrees and departure angle of 23.5 degrees (22.3 degrees for MAX) allow for confident handling in various terrains.
