What’s new for the 2026 Ford Expedition?
After a full redesign for 2025, the 2026 Expedition will most likely debut with few changes — and none of them major! But while anyone driving last year’s model won’t need an upgrade, the upcoming Expedition treats everyone else to the most fun-loving edition of this SUV yet.
When you get yours, you’ll choose from four handsomely equipped trim models, including the off-road-ready Tremor. Introduced for 2025, the Expedition Tremor is ready to take on your favorite trails, from the clay hills of the Panhandle to the sandy beaches of Daytona.
Does your family love outdoor adventure? Other recent additions to this rugged SUV help you store sporty cargo and set up camp. The new Third-Row Flexible Seating helps you create a long row up the middle of the cabin, where you can stow fishing roads or paddle boards. And exterior zone lighting lets you shine a light on four distinct zones outside your Expedition, helping settle in after dark.
The fifth-generation Expedition also includes the latest tech updates from Ford! Every trim model comes standard with a new Google-based infotainment system, Ford Digital Experience, and a 24-inch panoramic display! You’ll also enjoy a year’s subscription to the Ford Connectivity Package, which includes a mobile Wi-Fi hotspot (connect up to 10 devices) and built-in Google Maps navigation. Ask your Ford dealer for more information on last year’s redesign!
Who should choose the 2026 Ford Expedition?
With the Expedition, there’s no need to choose between comfy family travel and strong towing capabilities, because this full-size SUV is designed to deliver all of the above!
Major Space, Comfort, & Convenience
Big families have always loved the Expedition’s voluminous cabin! But this new generation of SUVs caters to Floridians more than ever, with standard three-zone automatic climate control and airy cloth seating. Move up the trim levels for luxuries like ventilated front seats, second-row captain’s chairs, and power-adjustable pedals.
As we mentioned, this new crop of Expeditions is equipped with the latest tech gear. In addition to smartphone-friendly infotainment and mobile connectivity, you’ll also enjoy streetwise safety. Every trim model features the Ford Co-Pilot360 Assist 2.0 package, a suite of safety aids designed to help you avoid intersection collisions, maintain a safe cruising distance on the highway, check your blind spots, and more! Better yet, BlueCruise is available for every Expedition, allowing you to cruise hands-free on pre-mapped Florida highways!
Intrepid Performance
The Expedition isn’t just any three-row family hauler. With its strong frame and robust twin-turbo powertrain, this SUV was built for rugged adventure. Whether that means forging a path through muddy terrain or towing the family boat to the beach is up to you!
Can the 2026 Ford Expedition handle Orlando road trips?
Absolutely! Drivers in Central Florida want a family hauler that can handle wild outdoor adventures as well as the idiosyncrasies of theme park vacations! The 2026 Ford Expedition is that SUV, delivering everything from trail capabilities to long-term highway comfort. As you shuttle from your hotel to your favorite Disney parks and back again, this SUV wraps you in comfort, with a smooth, refined performance and three rows of generously padded seating.
The upcoming Expedition is also a great choice for families who want to travel beyond Florida! With its best-in-class towing capabilities (up to 9,600 pounds), the Expedition can transport your family camper across the country in style. And thanks to its twin-turbo V6 engine, the Expedition delivers a rare blend of outsized power and relative efficiency, giving Chevy’s V8s a run for their money.
Expedition Powertrain Options
- Twin-turbo 3.5L V6 (400 horsepower, 510 pound-feet of torque)
- Tremor-exclusive high-output twin-turbo 3.5L V6 (440 hp, 510 lb-ft)
- 10-speed automatic transmission
- Rear-wheel drive or optional four-wheel drive
