Ford Announces the Overhauled 2025 Expedition

While much of the Expedition changed for 2025, the powertrain is a carryover. It’s a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 making 400 horsepower and 480 pound-feet of torque in lower trims, but that output is boosted to 440 horsepower and 510 pound-feet of torque in the new Tremor off-road trim and available in the top Platinum variant.

The Expedition has long offered an expansive cargo hold, but it gains new features for 2025 that make the space more useful and accessible. Ford offers a split rear gate, similar to the one on the new Lincoln Navigator, that opens automatically when someone stands nearby with the key fob. The tailgate can support 500 pounds, and the rear seatbacks fold out to form a serving table at the rear of the SUV.

Inside, the new center console can slide back by nearly eight inches to create more storage, and the third-row seats feature a center-folding component that allows people to ride while carrying longer cargo.

Despite some pushback from buyers who feel that automakers have gone too far with interior display screens, Ford pressed ahead with a new 24-inch panoramic display in the 2025 Expedition. The large screen replaces the gauge cluster and features mapping displays, vehicle information, and more. It pairs with a large touchscreen running Google built-in, which brings features such as Maps, Play Store functionality, and more.

Finally, Ford is offering BlueCruise in more Expedition models for the new year. It’s now available for the Active, Tremor, King Ranch, and Platinum models. The automaker said the improved system provides a smoother experience with fewer disengagements.
