Specs at a Glance
If you need a capable full-size SUV with an extended wheelbase, look no further than the 2027 Ford Expedition MAX. Its expansive cabin, massive towing capacity, and modern features promise to impress. When shopping for a new Expedition MAX, some buyers will be deciding between the Active and Platinum trim levels. Here's a rundown of how these two trims compare.
Performance
These two Expedition MAX trims come standard with a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine producing a formidable 400 horsepower and 480 lb-ft of torque. Only the Platinum trim offers a high-output version of the engine. Ford tunes it to develop 440 horsepower and 510 lb-ft of torque, enhancing acceleration and performance when hauling heavy loads. All versions of the Expedition MAX are backed by a 10-speed automatic transmission.
The Expedition MAX Active comes standard with rear-wheel drive, with four-wheel drive available as an option. Meanwhile, four-wheel drive comes standard on the Expedition MAX Platinum. Another difference is the Platinum trim's adaptive suspension, which further enhances ride comfort and handling stability.
Appearance
The Expedition MAX Active has a confident, athletic appearance. Its bold front fascia features a carbon black grille and signature LED lighting. A stylish set of 18-inch dark alloy wheels enhances the SUV's commanding road presence. Black roof side rails and fixed running boards also come standard. This entry-level trim gives you six exterior colors to choose from, including Bronze Fire Metallic Tinted Clearcoat and Dark Matter Gray Metallic.
When checking out the Expedition MAX Platinum, you'll immediately notice some key differences. While a distinctive set of 20-inch wheels gives the Platinum trim an even more prominent stance, a more upscale front fascia enhances the SUV's premium appearance. You can also take advantage of the standard panoramic Vista Roof, which is available as part of an optional package on the Active trim.
Features
The Active trim is well-equipped right out of the box. Its 24-inch panoramic display includes a 13.2-inch infotainment touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ smartphone connectivity. Google Maps and Google Assistant functionality make the interface even more rewarding. Meanwhile, a comprehensive Ford Co-Pilot360 Assist 2.0 suite of advanced safety features helps you avoid potential accidents.
More luxury features come equipped on the Platinum trim. Highlights include climate-controlled front seats, leather upholstery, a 10-speaker B&O premium audio system, and multi-color interior ambient lighting.
