The Ford Expeditions does offer a lot of features to its passengers. It’s an expensive affair inside the car. The expedition gets a square dashboard and large sporty air vents, the materials have improved and the new addition in its trim line the King Ranch gets ebony interiors along with leather-trimmed seats. The roominess inside the cabin has improved and now has more practical spaces inside it.
The Platinum model which is top of its trim gets the most number of interior features, although some of the features do sound fancy for a 7 seater. The Platinum gets such features that will blow your mind such as multi-contour front seats with a massage function.

What about Seating and Comfort inside the Ford Expedition?
However in spite of the atrocities, it gets you for the money, it misses in the intrusion of plastic. You can feel the cheap plastic at some places even at the top Platinum version. The otherwise fine interiors do not lack quality and space in any terms. This 7 seater with 3 rows of seats can even fit one or two more people inside with ease, although we won’t recommend that.
The headroom, legroom and knee room will impress you for a 3-row seater. The doors are huge and climbing is easy with running boards. The grab bars and handles are within reach and convenient to use.
