DESIGN
Ford Expedition

Are you just starting your family? Need extra room for a new bundle of joy? Is it time to add a 4-legged furry family member to the household? When you need space, the Expedition and the Navigator will be there to accommodate.

An SUV for Your Family

Both the Ford and the Lincoln can seat up to eight people. Did you know the Expedition is also available as a 5-seat configuration? By offering different sizes of this SUV, the Ford proves to be a good option for all families who still want to enjoy grandeur of all degrees.

For the most amount of space, you can depend on the Long Wheelbase configurations of either SUV. These models are marked as MAX in the Ford and as L in the Lincoln. They offer extended space for passengers and cargo!

However, the Expedition is available with four MAX configurations, while the Navigator has two L configurations.

An SUV Designed for You

Your family is unique, which means youā€™ll need a vehicle that fits right in. You can easily suit your needs with one of the five trims in the Lincoln Navigator. However, if you truly want to find your perfect match, the Ford Expedition is available in 10 trims!

More trim levels to choose from helps you find the best model for you and your loved ones. After all, it is called an S(YOU)V.

PERFORMANCE
Ford Expedition

The large stature and the commanding road presence of the Expedition and the Navigator are undeniable. Both models are large and in charge, which means they need plenty of power under the hood to get them moving and grooving.

Matching Mojo

Power-wise, the Ford and the Lincoln are cut from the same cloth. Both models have a standard 3.6L V6 engine! In fact, when the Ford is equipped with the H.O. (high output) version of this engine, both SUVs produce the same output: 440 horsepower and 510 lb-ft of torque. Thatā€™s enough power to take your breath away.

Similarly, each power train is paired with a 10-speed SelectShiftĀ® automatic transmission and either 4x2 or available 4x4.

Ready to Haul?

The Expedition and the Navigator have the same engine; however, the Ford offers more pulling power. Check out how much each SUV can tow when properly equipped:

  • Ford Expedition towing capacity: 9,300 pounds:
  • Lincoln Navigator towing capacity: 8,700 pounds

With a 600-pound difference between their maximum towing abilities, you can open your towing options to slightly larger toys with the Expedition.

INTERIOR
Ford Expedition

You want a vehicle that makes you feel comfortable in more ways than one. When youā€™re behind the wheel, you want to feel cozy. You also want the groceries you just picked up from the store to come out unscathed. With generously sized cabins in either SUV, you can kick back and enjoy the ride.

Roomy Seating Appointments

If you need space for your crew, youā€™ll find it in both the Expedition and the Navigator. These SUVs are neck and neck when it comes to passenger volume:

  • Ford: 171.9 cubic feet:
  • Lincoln: 172 cubic feet

Plus, you can enjoy 43.9 inches of front legroom with either option. Thatā€™s plenty of space for even tall drivers to enjoy.

Bring Along What Matters

If you need more space for your kidā€™s afterschool equipment or for your new Golden Retriever puppy, youā€™ll have slightly more room in the Expedition.
