Where it stands

The Expedition’s best numbers against every other SUV we track that publishes them.

Not compared: payload. We don’t have that number for the Ford Expedition from the maker’s documents.

Each number is the best configuration of the newest model year we have that publishes it (at most two years back), factory packages included and fleet-only configurations left out, against the same for every other vehicle in its class that publishes it. Tow and payload ratings are compared within one market, and pickups within their size when five or more share it.

2025 Ford Expedition

One configuration per trim, named under each heading, with its numbers as Ford prints them. “Up to” is a ceiling printed over several configurations (the notes say whose), “from” the lowest figure, and a range is printed across that configuration’s grades. “Door label” means the maker prints it only on each vehicle’s certification label.
