At Thomason Ford, we're comparing the 2025 Expedition to its 2024 predecessor to help you understand what's new and improved.

Changes to the 2025 Model
The 2025 Ford Expedition has several key updates to meet evolving driver needs and provide a more refined experience around Salem, OR. Here's a quick look at what's different:
- Enhanced Performance: Revised software calibration offers smoother shifts in the 10-speed automatic transmission.
- Updated Technology: The introduction of SYNC 4A provides an upgraded, more responsive infotainment experience.
- New Exterior Styling: A refreshed front grille and updated LED headlight design for a bolder, more contemporary look.
- Safety Enhancements: The addition of Intersection Assist and upgraded Active Park Assist for added convenience and security.
What's New with Design?
The 2025 Ford Expedition has subtle yet impactful design tweaks that make it stand out from the previous model. This year's Expedition introduces a redesigned front grille, giving it a more modern and assertive appearance. Ford has also updated the LED headlamp design, enhancing both nighttime visibility and the vehicle's overall look. The Expedition's silhouette remains familiar, but the refreshed elements add a layer of sophistication that visually elevates the 2025 model.
- Wheels: New alloy wheel options provide customization and add to the SUV's presence on the road.
- Trim Updates: Higher trims showcase exclusive styling touches, adding to the Expedition's luxury appeal.


Which Model Is More Powerful?
Both the 2024 and 2025 Expedition models carry the reliable 3.5L EcoBoost V6 engine, delivering impressive performance around Lebanon, OR:
- Standard Output: Up to 400 horsepower and 480 pound-feet of torque, providing ample power for daily drives and long hauls.
- High-Output Engine: Available on select trims in both model years, with an enhanced output of 440 horsepower for those seeking more robust performance around Silverton, OR.
The 2025 model benefits from updated software calibration for its 10-speed automatic transmission, resulting in smoother transitions and better fuel efficiency at higher speeds, making it a slightly improved choice for performance-focused drivers.
Has Towing Capacity Changed?
Towing is an essential factor for many Expedition drivers, and both the 2024 and 2025 models excel in this area. When equipped with the Heavy-Duty Trailer Tow Package, the maximum towing capacity remains at 9,300 pounds. However, Ford has included upgrades to improve the towing experience in 2025:
- Enhanced Trailer Sway Control: Added stability features allow drivers to tow with greater confidence on Stayton roads.
- Rearview Camera Updates: Visual guidelines in the rearview camera aid in trailer alignment, adding convenience and precision when hitching.

- New Colors for 2025: Vibrant and metallic shades have been added, allowing drivers to express their style with greater flexibility - Agate Black Metallic, Dark Matter Metallic Glacier Gray Metallic, Oxford White, Space Silver, Star White Metallic Tri-Coat, and Stone Blue.
- Trim-Specific Options: Certain trims come with exclusive color options to distinguish premium models visually.
Tech and Safety Upgrades
Technology and safety remain at the forefront of Ford's design, and the 2025 Expedition sees notable upgrades in both areas. The updated SYNC 4A infotainment system is now standard on higher trims, offering a larger 15.5-inch display with enhanced functionality and faster response times. This model also features expanded compatibility with in-vehicle Wi-Fi, allowing more devices to connect seamlessly.
- Safety Enhancements: The 2025 model introduces Intersection Assist, which helps avoid potential collisions during turns. Ford's Active Park Assist 2.0 has also been refined to make parallel and perpendicular parking even easier.
- Improved Connectivity: Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto remain, but connectivity is now faster, and the 2025 model includes an upgraded voice recognition system for hands-free convenience.
