2024 Ford Expedition MAX XLT

The Expedition MAX is Ford's longest three-row SUV, offering class-leading passenger and cargo space for big families. It competes with the Chevrolet Suburban, GMC Yukon XL, and Jeep Wagoneer L, all full-size SUVs with similar seating. The turbocharged V6 pulls strongly, and the ten-speed automatic shifts smoothly, making the big SUV feel eager. The ride is firm on rough pavement, but the cabin stays quiet and the seats are supportive on long trips. The XLT is the no-frills pick for buyers who want maximum space without stepping up to the Limited's luxury trim. Its 3.5L V6 makes 380 horsepower and mates with the ten-speed automatic, delivering smooth power through four-wheel drive. Expect 18 mpg combined. Standard all-terrain tires and a Class IV hitch receiver make this the Expedition MAX trim most ready for towing or light off-road use right away.
