Nuked Hello, tech enthusiasts! It’s your pal Nuked here, ready to dive into the latest automotive news with a sprinkle of humor and a dash of tech love. Buckle up as we explore the new Ford Expedition!
Ford has just unveiled a revamped version of its largest SUV, the Expedition, and guess what? It’s now sporting Android Automotive along with a slice of Lincoln’s impressive panoramic screen. This 2025 model is the second to feature Ford’s new Digital Experience infotainment system, following in the footsteps of the Explorer.
The dashboard and user interface of the Expedition resemble a downsized version of the luxurious 48-inch display first seen in the 2024 Lincoln Nautilus. In fact, it looks like Ford took just the left half of that massive screen, leaving the Expedition with a more modest 24-inch panel. But don’t worry; you’re still getting a solid instrument cluster and navigation setup right in front of you!
While some widgets are missing from this pared-down display, the Expedition’s smaller center touchscreen below it is no slouch. It runs Google Play Store apps and supports Apple CarPlay, with digital HVAC controls included for good measure. Plus, you can chat with either Google Assistant or Alexa—just not at the same time! And for those who enjoy hands-free driving, certain models come equipped with BlueCruise.
Pillar-to-pillar panoramic screens have become all the rage in luxury vehicles lately, often marketed as an infotainment paradise for front passengers. Just imagine streaming videos or even gaming on your PlayStation while cruising down the highway! Ford offers both a standard-wheelbase Expedition and an extended “Max” variant for those who need extra room.
In the center row, you can choose between bench seating or captain chairs. And guess what? The first-row headrests even have clamps to hold smartphones or tablets for your backseat passengers. With the bench option, this beast can comfortably seat up to eight people!
At first glance, you might mistake the Expedition for its sibling, the Lincoln Navigator. It features a similar split rear gate, a stylish light bar up front, and packs a 3.5-liter V6 engine under the hood—Ford’s EcoBoost version, of course! For those looking for a bit more thrill, there’s also a new Tremor trim that cranks out up to 440 horsepower and comes with tuned suspension and specialized trail modes for off-road adventures.
However, if you’re hoping for a hybrid powertrain option in the Expedition, you might be out of luck—Ford hasn’t rolled that out just yet. So there you have it! The new Ford Expedition is making waves with its tech-savvy features and stylish design. Stay tuned for more updates from your tech-loving buddy Nuked!
