2024 Ford Explorer vs 2024 Ford Expedition
Serving Auburn, IN
The 2024 Ford Explorer and the 2024 Ford Expedition both provide spacious, three-row interiors and various features and power options to cater to your needs. Despite these similarities, the mid-size Explorer and the full-size Expedition offer unique qualities that may make one a better fit for you. Here's what you need to know as you prepare to choose your next SUV.
Performance
For 2024, the Ford Explorer will drop its hybrid powertrain and offer two gas engines across its eight trim levels. The standard engine is a 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder that produces 300 horsepower. A more powerful 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 engine is also available, delivering 400 horsepower. Both engines are paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission, with rear-wheel drive standard and all-wheel drive optional on most trims.
The 2024 Ford Expedition, available in two wheelbases and six trim levels for each, offers three powertrains: a 3.5-liter turbocharged V6 engine with 380 horsepower, an upgraded V6 with 440 horsepower, and another V6 variant producing 400 horsepower. All come with a 10-speed automatic transmission and a choice between rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive.
Appearance
The Ford Explorer features a sleek, linear design with a slightly sloped roof and angled side contours that suggest forward motion. The front end includes horizontal LED headlights, rectangular fog lights, and a hexagon grille with lace-style mesh. In contrast, the Ford Expedition stands out with its taller stance and prominent design elements. A deep accent line runs across the smooth door panels, while the well-defined hood and large grille, featuring two horizontal accent bars that blend into the LED headlights, give it a commanding presence.
Features
Both the 2024 Ford Explorer and Expedition come loaded with numerous features. These include a hands-free power liftgate, front and rear parking sensors, adaptive cruise control, a wireless smartphone charger, a premium sound system, a surround-view camera, heated seats in the first two rows, a digital instrument panel, leather upholstery, a heated steering wheel, second-row sunshades, ambient cabin lighting, a navigation system, and driver's memory settings. The Expedition also offers additional features such as BlueCruise, park assist, a larger central display screen, and power-deployable running boards.
