2022 Ford Expedition MPG
The 2021 Ford Expedition is a family-friendly SUV. With three rows of seats and a large trunk, it’s a great choice for long road trips. Making fewer pit stops is a great way to make the drives go faster. So, how efficient is the Expedition?
Rountree Ford finds out. We looked at the Ford Expedition MPG, so families in Shreveport, Bossier City, and Stonewall, LA, will know what it’s capable of.
Ford Expedition Fuel Economy
The 2021 Ford Expedition achieves an EPA-estimated 17 city/23 highway MPG. That kind of fuel economy can help you cover a lot of ground in between trips to the pump. Plus, both of the Expedition’s available engines can deliver that kind of MPG ratings.
One difference between the two powertrains is how much fuel you’ll be able to fill them up with. For example, the base engine runs on a 23.2-gallon fuel tank. The more powerful option gives you a little more gas with a 27.8-gallon fuel tank.
No matter which engine or gas tank you’re interested in, you’ll have a number of convenient features to help maximize your fuel economy. Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go helps the Ford Expedition perform on the highway while standard Auto Start-Stop Technology allows you to save gas when you’re in stop-and-go traffic or at a red light.
Performance Specs
To provide you with exceptional fuel economy, the Ford Expedition offers a choice between two 3.5L V6 EcoBoost® engines. Each one is designed to be efficient with Twin Independent Variable Camshaft Timing (Ti-VCT).
The base engine delivers an impressive 375 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. The other engine configuration can make your SUV feel like a sports car with 400 horsepower and 480 lb-ft of torque. Despite their differences, both the EcoBoost® engines have been built to tow up to 9,300 pounds when properly equipped.
To manage these V6 engines, you’ll have a versatile 10-speed automatic transmission with SelectShift® capability. Rear-wheel drive comes standard, but Control Trac® Four-wheel drive is available on both.
Capable Aerodynamic Design
Another way in which the Ford Expedition gives you great fuel economy is by featuring a low drag coefficient. Its sleek design includes accent lines running up the hood and along the sides.
This aerodynamic SUV cuts through the air with a streamlined body that measures 210 inches long, 93.4 inches wide, and 76.6 inches tall. It also rides high with a 9.8-inch ground clearance.
Overall, this allows the Expedition to be highly maneuverable and overcome anything that lies in its way. Its high ground clearance improves the overall airflow and lets it attack steep hills and driveways with a 23.4-degree approach angle.
While it’s a big, bold SUV, it also features a lightweight design. With a curb weight of only 5,368 pounds, the Expedition can accelerate quickly while keeping things efficient, too.
