What’s changed for the 2026 Ford Expedition?
After an extensive makeover for 2025, this year’s Expedition is keeping a lower profile.

The Ford Security Package is now standard equipment, helping you track down would-be thieves with theft alerts and Stolen Vehicle Services.
Is the 2026 Ford Expedition good for road trips in Florida?
For families who like to combine sporty adventure with highway comfort, the 2026 Expedition is the go-to full-size SUV. Thanks to last year’s vacation-friendly updates (including an all-new infotainment system, expanded BlueCruise availability, and innovative storage options), the Expedition takes your beach days and camping trips to the next level!
And no matter which Expedition trim model you select, you can also expect major power.

All but the base Active trim model come standard with four-wheel drive, enhancing your potential for off-road adventure!
