Used 2020 Ford Expedition SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

Like the F-150, the 2020 Ford Expedition has a multitude of trim levels and option packages to suit a wide variety of buyers. For 2020, four trim levels are available: the entry-level XLT, the Limited, the King Ranch and finally the Platinum. All Expeditions are available in the standard-length or the extended Max body style.

Powering the XLT, Limited and King Ranch Expeditions is a 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine (375 hp, 470 lb-ft), while the top-tier Platinum gets a little more power (400 hp, 480 lb-ft) from the same engine. All Expeditions are mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission and come with rear-wheel drive. Four-wheel drive is an available option.

The XLT comes standard with 18-inch wheels, seating for eight passengers, an 8-inch infotainment touchscreen, and Ford's Co-Pilot360 suite of driver safety aids. Option packages, such as the FX4 off-road package or the Black Accent appearance package, can dress the Expedition down or up to suit your needs. The Heavy-Duty Trailer Tow package is also available.

Moving up to the Limited bolts on 20-inch wheels and adds more premium touches such as ambient lighting, an upgraded 12-speaker audio system, leather-trimmed seats and power-adjustable pedals. New for 2020, the King Ranch brings special leather seats, stitching and badging. Larger 22-inch wheels and adaptive suspension are also included. But the Platinum still tops the trims with a more powerful version of the same engine. And it ups the luxury quotient with satin-aluminum exterior trim and power running boards, while the interior gets unique leather seating, special wood trim, power-folding second- and third-row seating, active noise control, and enhanced driver aids and safety features.

Which Expedition trim does Edmunds recommend?

As nice as the appointments (and the extra horsepower) in the top-of-the-line Platinum trim might be, we like the balance of features and price the Limited offers. It not only gets you an upgraded audio system and heated second-row seats, but it also opens up a fair number of option packages to tailor the Expedition to your needs. As with every trim level, the Expedition is available in two- or four-wheel drive and the standard or long-wheelbase Max version.
