Ford Expedition Tops Large SUVs in Consumer Reports

The 2021 Expedition is not only a family favorite, but the top vehicle in three Consumer Reports categories. Ford’s full-size SUV can now claim the following:
  • Best Large Three-Row SUV The extended-length Expedition Max adds an extra foot of space to the Expedition’s already roomy cabin, giving third-row passengers even more legroom. In fact, consumers reported having nearly as much legroom in the third row as the second – with enough width to accommodate two or three adults.
  • Best Large SUV For Tall Drivers Consumer Reports scores vehicles based on a variety of factors, like front-seat comfort, ease of access and visibility. This particular study focused on taller drivers and considered factors such as headroom, legroom, driver’s seat safety and more. In the end, the 2021 Ford Expedition came out on top!
  • Most Satisfying Large SUV Consumer Reports’ top picks are those that deliver on manufacturers’ promises. From fuel economy and performance to durability and comfort, these vehicles are ones that consumers are likely to buy again. Ford drivers were not surprised to hear that the 2021 Expedition beat the GMC Yukon, Chevrolet Tahoe and Chevrolet Suburban!
There’s more! The newest Ford Expedition is the only model year to earn a Consumer Reports official recommendation.

What Makes the Interior So Impressive?

With room for eight and various seating configurations, the versatile 2021 Ford Expedition can accommodate any family. Power-folding third-row seating adds convenience (on all except the two-row only XL STX model) and with both second and third rows folded flat, you’ll enjoy 104.6 cubic feet of cargo space! Even base models provide comfort for the whole crew, but higher trim levels take luxury to the next level. The Platinum and higher trim levels offer must-have features like massaging front seats, real wood and leather door accents, and the option to swap second row bench seating for captain’s chairs. Need even more cargo space? Be sure to check out the extended-length 2021 Ford Expedition Max!
