Expansive Interior
In the realm of the 2024 Ford Expedition, customization is key, offering a plethora of options to suit various preferences and needs.
Whether opting for cloth or leather upholstery, two rows or three, and bench seats or captain’s chairs in the second row, one constant remains: 15 beverage holders, highlighting the vastness of the Expedition’s cabin.
Navigating through its expansive interior feels like a journey in itself, especially in the Max version, where the space seems endless. Accompanying this spaciousness is an upgraded infotainment system, boasting a 15.5-inch touchscreen in the higher trims and a still-impressive 12-inch display in the lower ones.
The interior materials exhibit quality craftsmanship, rivaling those found in its Chevy counterpart. With seating for up to eight occupants, or seven with captain’s chairs, comfort is paramount, with generous legroom of 42.6 inches in the second row and 40.9 inches in the third row, accommodating even tall adults with ease.
The Max variant capitalizes on its extended length to offer more cargo space, boasting 36 cubic feet behind the third row and expanding to a cavernous 121.5 cubic feet with the second and third rows folded down.
Though slightly surpassed by competitors like the Chevy Tahoe, the Expedition remains among the roomiest in its class, ensuring ample space for all cargo and passengers alike.
Imposing Exterior
The 2024 Ford Expedition offers a range of standard features designed to enhance both its functionality and aesthetic appeal.
Roof rails, running boards, and a tailgate with a separate-opening glass section come standard on every new Expedition, facilitating easier access to the roof and cargo area.
The Expedition’s alloy wheels are available in sizes ranging from 18 to 22 inches, allowing buyers to customize their ride’s look and performance to suit their preferences.
For those seeking additional space, the Max version offers a longer overall length of 221.9 inches compared to the standard version’s 210 inches, providing extra room for passengers and cargo.
However, potential buyers should consider the dimensions of their garage before opting for the Max, as its increased length may pose challenges in confined spaces.
