Whether you are navigating the historic downtown Annapolis streets or loading up the team for a road trip across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge, this completely redesigned three-row SUV provides unmatched space and innovation. Here at Koons Ford in Annapolis, we are excited to showcase the new Ford Split Gate, the massive 24-inch panoramic display, and the highly anticipated Tremor trim. This page outlines the EcoBoost engine performance, maximum cargo dimensions, and advanced digital features of the 2026 Expedition and Expedition MAX to help you find the perfect fit.

Performance and Engine Specs

The 2026 Expedition relies on two variations of the proven 3.5L EcoBoost V6 engine, guaranteeing you always have the necessary power for highway merging or off-road crawling.

The standard 3.5L EcoBoost V6 generates 400 horsepower and 480 lb-ft of torque on premium fuel. This translates to incredibly smooth and effortless acceleration, ensuring the SUV never feels weighed down even with eight passengers inside. For maximum performance, the available High-Output variant produces an aggressive 440 horsepower and 510 lb-ft of torque on premium fuel. This massive power delivery gives you the low-end thrust required to conquer steep inclines and execute quick passes on US-50. You can review the technical background of these powertrains on the official Ford Expedition specifications page.

Exterior Design and Utility

The exterior of the 2026 Expedition features groundbreaking utility upgrades that redefine how you interact with your SUV. The all-new multifunction Ford Split Gate features powered upper and lower sections, operating much like a traditional truck tailgate. The lower section boasts a 500-pound capacity, providing a perfect seating area for tailgating at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium. Furthermore, the available Open On Approach technology automatically opens the gate when you approach the rear of the vehicle with your key fob, making grocery runs effortless.

Interior, Cargo and Dimensions

The Expedition and the extended Expedition MAX maximize interior volume to create a comfortable, flexible mobile living room.

The standard Expedition offers up to 108.5 cubic feet of total cargo volume behind the first row, while the Expedition MAX expands that to a cavernous 123.1 cubic feet. Both models feature the innovative Flex Powered Console. This unique center console slides rearward on a motorized track, freeing up space between the front seats for a purse or small bag while bringing the rear cupholders closer to second-row passengers.

Technology and Infotainment

Ford completely digitized the Expedition dashboard for 2026, delivering an immersive visual experience for the driver.

Every model features a breathtaking 24-inch panoramic display positioned near the windshield line to keep vital driving information directly in your line of sight. This is paired with a secondary 13.2-inch lower center display running the Ford Digital Experience. This native Google ecosystem includes Google Maps and Google Assistant, while also supporting wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Safety Features and Driver Assist

Whether you are navigating local school zones or taking a cross-country highway trip, the Expedition surrounds your family with active safety monitors.

Standard Ford Co-Pilot360 equips the SUV with Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking, which watches for sudden stops in traffic and can brake automatically to prevent a collision. The Expedition is also available with Ford BlueCruise. This advanced system allows for hands-free highway driving on prequalified sections of divided highways, dramatically reducing driver fatigue during long trips. To keep these crucial sensors correctly calibrated, rely on our certified Ford service center. You can also review the vehicle's structural crash data via the NHTSA safety standards site.
