Looking for an SUV that's roomy enough for your family and powerful enough to tow a boat? The 2023 Ford Explorer and the 2023 Ford Expedition are both spacious, high-performing SUVs that have all you need for an outing in Bay Shore, NY. To help our Brentwood, NY customers choose between these two SUVs, Newins Ford has developed the following comparison between them.

Size and Space

The most obvious difference between the new Ford Explorer and the new Ford Expedition is size. The Expedition is almost a foot longer than the Explorer, so it may be a bit harder to park and maneuver in Farmingdale, NY. However, the Expedition's larger size allows it to hold more cargo. It has 104.6 cubic feet of cargo space with all the back seats folded down. The Ford Explorer only has 87.8 cubic feet of total cargo room.

Engine Power and Towing

The new Ford Explorer comes standard with a turbocharged 300-horsepower four-cylinder engine, but a twin-turbocharged 400-horsepower V6 motor is available. The new Ford Expedition only offers one engine, but it's a twin-turbocharged 440-horsepower V6. Melville, NY drivers who often pull boats or RVs behind their SUV will want the Expedition, which can tow up to 9,300 pounds when properly equipped. The Ford Explorer's maximum towing capacity is just 5,600 pounds.

Technology

The new Ford Expedition has a feature-rich infotainment system that will help keep your family entertained on long drives through Bohemia, NY. It comes standard with a 12-inch infotainment touchscreen, wireless Apple Carplay and Android Auto, and a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot. The Ford Explorer's infotainment system comes standard with an 8-inch touchscreen. Additionally, Android Auto and Apple Carplay require a wired connection in the Explorer.
