We Recommend

The Limited Trim packs in a lot of premium features at a very reasonable cost. Moreover, you can have it with the 4x4 configuration to have a complete experience and practicality.

Under the hood of the 2019 Expedition is a 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V-6 motor that dishes out a beefy 375hp and 470lbs-ft of torque. The motor is mated to a superb 10-speed automatic transmission that responds the moment you want it to. You can also change the gears using the gear selector knob present near the central console. You can also convert from 2WD to 4WD using the shift on the fly knob. For even more off-road ability, a low-range gearbox and a rear locking differential come in standard with the 4WD variants. The motor is potent enough to get you through the day without stressing itself even a bit and cruise along all day at highway speeds even under a full load. The two turbochargers work in tandem to deliver the maximum power at lower revs and the 10 gears utilize every bit of it properly.

Models	Ford Expedition XLT	Chevrolet Tahoe LS	Nissan Armada SV	GMC Yukon SLE
MSRP	$53,425	$49,195	$48,185	$50,795
Engine	3.5L V6 Twin Turbo Premium Unleaded	5.3L V8 Gas/Ethanol	5.6L V8	5.3L V8 Gas

Torque	470 ft-lbs@ 3500rpm	383 ft-lbs@ 4100rpm	394 ft-lbs@4000rpm	383 ft-lbs@ 4100rpm

The Nissan Armada takes the crown here with a superior 390 horsepower on tap but the Expedition leads the competition with a sheer 470lb-ft of torque. Both the Chevy Tahoe and the GMC Yukon share the same powertrain hence their power figures are identical as well.

Acceleration performance of the 2019 Ford Expedition

Despite its heavy curb weight, the Ford Expedition manages to outrun all of its rivals courtesy of its powerful 3.5L Twin Turbocharged EcoBoost motor. The motor manages to put the weight of the massive SUV behind and accelerate to 60mph from a standstill within 6.7 seconds flat. The SUV manages to obliterate the quarter-mile time as well with a 15.1-second time frame.

Models	2019 Ford Expedition XLT SUV	2019 Chevrolet Tahoe LS SUV	2019 Nissan Armada	2019 GMC Yukon SLE SUV
0-60 MPH	6.7 sec	6.7 sec	6.5 sec	6.8 sec
Quarter mile	15.1 sec	15.2 sec	15 sec	15.3 sec
Engine	3.5L V6 Regular Unleaded	5.3L V8 Gas/Ethanol	5.6L V8	5.3L V8 Gas
Emission (Tons/yr of CO2 Emissions @ 15K mi/year)	N/A	10.4	11	N/A

Despite its sheer power, the Expedition is just at par with all the rivals on the list. The Nissan Armada is the quickest one on the list with a time difference of .2 to .3 seconds with the rivals.

Drivability and Handling of the 2019 Ford Expedition

The massive 3.5L EcoBoost V6 motor delivers a strong surge of power whenever you demand it. The engine performs the best when it gets to drink a higher 91 octane-rated gasoline. What tends to disappoint is the steering, which we feel, lacks the intuitiveness and connectivity that we get from other SUVs in the class. Being a full-size body-on-frame SUV, body roll is heavily pronounced. The SUV is best enjoyed while driven in a relaxed manner.

The steering doesn't feel quite nimble or responsive, making it cumbersome to drive this behemoth in urban crowds. Throwing this SUV into corners is a strict no-no given its relaxed driving dynamics. 

Braking performance of the 2019 Ford Expedition

Considering the humongous proportions of the Expedition, one shouldn't expect the braking performance of the same to be similar to the smaller Focus. In reality, the Expedition brake works decently in most conditions except for when they are used in emergency or panic situations. The stability from the brakes is top-notch and the feeling from the same is consistent throughout.

Model	2019 Ford Expedition XLT SUV	2019 Chevrolet Tahoe LS SUV	2019 Nissan Armada	2019 GMC Yukon SLE SUV
Brake Front (in.)	13.9	N/A	13.8	13
Brake Rear (in.)	13.6	N/A	13.8	13.6
Curb Weight (lbs.)	5815	5355	5822	5379
60-0 MPH (ft.)	121	121	128	125

Considering the proportion, the 121ft distance isn't bad considering other rivals are nearly at par with Ford and aren't separated by a big margin. The Nissan Armada has the highest stopping distance while there is not much separating the others in this comparison.

Towing Capacity of the 2019 Ford Expedition

The 2019 Ford Expedition boasts of the best towing capacity in the segment, with a claimed towing capacity of 9300lbs. This is a massive feat as this kind of capacity is usually associated with big pickup trucks but Ford has managed to achieve the same feat with the Expedition. What is even more fascinating is the fact, that Ford has added its Trailer Sway Control and a 360 Degree camera to this vehicle, so as to aid the driver in better maneuvering the Expedition with a trailer attached behind its back.

Model	Ford Expedition	Chevrolet Tahoe	Nissan Armada	GMC Yukon
Engine	3.5L	5.3L	3.5L	5.3L
Drive Train	4WD	AWD	4WD	AWD
Capacity (lbs.)	9300	8600	8500	8500

All the competitors have similar towing capacities to each other but is a lot lesser than what the Expedition offers.

In terms of the MPG figures, we have nothing to complain about the 2019 Expedition here. With a big twin-turbo V6 powering the SUV, one wouldn't expect a good MPG figure but the vehicle delivers on that. The brilliant Ecoboost Motor delivers an astounding 20MPG Overall figure with an approximate full tank range of 470 Miles. These splendid figures however are available from the regular Expedition driving the rear wheels. The 4X4 variant delivers 22MPG on the Highway while the city range remains the same. The Max variant of the Expedition also delivers 23MPG on the Highway and 17 on the city while the 4X4 variant delivers 16MPG in the city and 22MPG on the Highway.

Model	2019 Ford Expedition XLT SUV	2019 Chevrolet Tahoe LS SUV	2019 Nissan Armada	2019 GMC Yukon SLE SUV
MPG (city)	17	15	13	15
MPG (highway)	24	22	18	22
MPG (combined)	20	18	15	18
Range (miles) (city/highway)	418.2/590.4	390/572	338/468	390/572
Tank Capacity (gal)	24.6	26.0	26.0	26.0

In terms of the competition, the Nissan with its massively powerful motor delivers the least impressive mileage figure while the GM siblings offer identical figures. In terms of the tank capacity though, all the SUVs have a higher fuel tank capacity of 26 Gallons than the Ford Expedition.

Ford claims that the 2019 Expedition can seat 8 people at ease, and with the proportions of the Expedition, it's hard to deny this claim. The gigantic doors, big running boards, and nicely positioned door handles make for easy access inside the Expedition. The powered tilt and folding 2nd-row seats allow for easy access into the 2nd and 3rd Row while the well-positioned grab handles aid access inside the same.

Model	2019 Ford Expedition XLT SUV	2019 Chevrolet Tahoe LS SUV	2019 Nissan Armada	2019 GMC Yukon SLE SUV
Passenger capacity	8	8	8	8
Front (Head/Shoulder/Leg) (In.)	42/64.9/43.9	42.8/64.8/45.3	40.9/63.8/41.9	42.8/64.8/45.3
Second row (Head/Shoulder/Leg) (In.)	40/64.8/41.5	38.7/65.1/39.0	40.0/63.4/41.0	38.7/65.1/39.0
Third row (Head/Shoulder/Leg)(In.)	37.3/64.2/36.1	38.1/62.6/24.8	36.4/60.5/28.4	38.1/62.6/24.8

As expected from an SUV of this class, the Ford expedition 'Exceeds' most expectations with its comfort levels offered from the seats and the ride. Every row of the Expedition has superb cushioning and support for passengers of all sizes while the Flat folding 2nd Row of seats facilitates entry into the 3rd row. Talking about the 3rd Row, the Ford Expedition truly boasts of seats that can accommodate adults easily. The seats can be reclined to improve comfort while the Sliding 2nd-row seats take things, a notch higher.

Infotainment system inside the 2019 Ford Expedition

The SYNC 3 Infotainment System ranks as one of the best infotainment systems in the automobile market today and Ford has equipped the 2019 Expedition with the same. The center console screen gives plenty of information about the SUV. The touchscreen is very easy to use with a fluidic user interface and is one of the easiest to understand and get accustomed to. 

Following are some of the Features, you will find in the Infotainment System of the Ford

• Android Auto and Apple Car Play Compatibility
• USB Ports on each Row and 4 12V Powerpoints and a 110V/150W AC power outlet
• Voice Recognition
• Ford Pass Connect
• Navigation with Pinch to Zoom
• SiriusXM Traffic and Travel Link
• HD Radio and Wi-Fi Hotspot
• B&O audio with 9 Speakers
• Wireless Charging pad for Compatible phones
• Rear View Camera with Adaptive Guidelines
• We do however want to point out that the Standard Navigation system of the Expedition isn\u2019t the Best to use as the graphics look dated and are slower to load than the Google Maps or Apple Carplay powered navigation system.

Interior Features of the 2019 Ford Expedition

The interiors of the 2019 Ford Expedition, doesn't exactly lack creature comforts and features and won't leave you wanting for more. The features may differ slightly in the 3 trims but the differences are very subtle and most prospective customers will be happy with any variant that they choose. Some of the few interior features include:

• Adaptive Cruise Control

Cargo Capacity of the 2019 Ford Expedition

The Ford Expedition is a big SUV in terms of cargo space belonging to and from any angle you are at. This can be said for the Interiors and that is one of the reasons why Ford has one of the biggest Cargo Space Areas in its segment. With a Mammoth 20.9 Cubic feet of available Cargo Space with the rear seats up, people won't complain about the lack of space in the Expedition. What adds to the practicality is both the 2nd and 3rd Row seats can be flat folded, to reveal an even enormous amount of storage area.

Model	Ford Expedition XLT SUV	Chevrolet Tahoe LS SUV	Nissan Armada	GMC Yukon SLE SUV
Cargo Volume (ft.3)	20.9	15.3	16.5	15.3

In terms of the competition, the Nissan Armada is the closest to the Ford in terms of the space on offer. On the other hand, the GM stable cousins, the Chevy Tahoe, and the GMC Yukon offer just 15.3 cubic feet of space and look pale in comparison to the Ford Expedition.

 The 2019 Ford Expedition, does resemble a lot like its sister car, the Lincoln Navigator from a lot of angles and it seems like Ford designers have taken the liberty to borrow almost all the design cues from the Navigator.

On the front, the Expedition seems to have taken its inspirations from the F-150 and the C Shaped headlamps are a sharp reminder of the same. From the side, the Expedition looks old school and sharp both at the same time because of the big doors and the sharp lines that surround the same. The rear end of the car may be the least talked about part of the car as the big tail gate houses a big chrome slab that runs through the tailgate up to the taillights.

Exterior Dimensions of the 2019 Ford Expedition

The 2019 Expedition is one of the biggest SUVs you can buy in the US Market now. Look at it from any angle, and the Big and Daunting Stance of the Ford may intimidate you. In terms of the dimensions purely, the 2019 Expedition is shorter in length and narrower than most of the rivals while has a similar stance in height. In terms of the wheelbase as well, Ford has the shortest of them all. But despite these, the Expedition manages to look Big and intimidating from all angles.

Model	Ford Expedition XLT SUV	Chevrolet Tahoe LS SUV	Nissan Armada	GMC Yukon SLE SUV
Curb weight (lbs.)	5815	5355	5822	5379
Length(in)	210	204.0	208.9	203.9
Width(in)	79.9	80.5	79.9	80.5
Height(in)	76.6	74.4	75.8	74.4
Ground clearance (in)	9.8	7.9	9.1	8.0
Wheelbase (in)	122.5	116.0	121.1	116.0

One of the highlights of the Expedition comes in the form of its 8.9 inches of ground clearance. While this figure may certainly not be the biggest in the class but still, is one of the best SUV to dive deep into the Ooff-road or go water wading without much hassle.

Exterior Features of the 2019 Ford Expedition

As expected from an SUV at this price point, the 2019 Ford Expedition doesn't disappoint, when providing usable exterior features. Some of the Noteworthy Exterior Features of the 2019 Expedition includes

• Auto high beam headlamp
• Class 4 Trailer hitch receiver
• Panoramic Sunroof
• 22" Aluminum Alloy Wheels

• Satin Aluminum Finished Roof Rails

The 2019 Ford Expedition secured some excellent safety scores in tests conducted by both the IIHS and the NHTSA and is a perfect testimony to Ford's commitment towards safety. We do however believe that Ford could have made most of the safety features present in the top-end Limited trim as standard across the range. That being said, some of the noteworthy safety features of the Expedition includes:

• Safety Canopy System
• Dual Stage Front and Side Impact Airbags
• Tire Pressure Monitoring System
• SOS Post-crash alert system

• Hill Start Assist and Hill Descent Control
• Auto high beam headlamp
• LATCH and Child Door Lock for all doors

Ford Expedition vs Chevrolet Tahoe

The Chevrolet Tahoe is one of the most popular SUVs in the segment. The Tahoe offers a lot of Equipment on the Technology front yet fails to offer the kind of Interior Space that the Ford offers. It likewise contains a lesser amount of Cargo than the Expedition. The Ford Expedition, then again, has a higher towing limit and delivers better mileage. The Chevy Tahoe however is less Pricier than the Ford by around 4 grand and hence is worth a look.

Ford Expedition vs Nissan Armada

The Nissan Armada is the Japanese rendition of what a big full-size SUV should be against the American-dominated SUV. The Armada offers a lot of value and practicality in its interiors like the ford but offers a better-built interior. In terms of Engine power as well, the Armada beats the Ford by a good margin. However, the expedition manages to tow a lot more than the Armada and be much more fuel-efficient than the same, without compromising on the performance.

Ford Expedition vs GMC Yukon

The 2019 Ford Expedition is a lot more extensive than the GMC Yukon but offers a lot of bang for the buck for that price difference. The Expedition has a massive towing capacity and offers Gargantuan levels of space on the inside. In terms of Infotainment as well, the SYNC infotainment system is the easiest to get used to in the industry and get acquainted with as well. However, if you are tight on your budget, the Yukon isn't a bad buy for the price.

The 2019 Ford Expedition has upgraded itself over its predecessor in every way possible like its interior capacity, cargo volume, efficiency, and styling. The new Expedition comes loaded with the latest security tech and other superb features. Buyers who are searching for more extravagance may find the Lincoln Navigator additionally satisfying but for what the Ford offers and the price it comes at, the Expedition is an SUV that is hard to beat.
