2020 Ford Expedition Towing Capacity

2020 Ford Expedition | Southern California Ford Dealers

For 2020, the Ford Expedition receives several updates, including the reintroduction of the King Ranch trim level and the standardization of the Ford Co-Pilot360™ suite. But what hasn’t changed is the Expedition’s stout powertrain and impressive towing capacity. If you’re looking for a full-size SUV that can pull all your toys – look no further.

Introducing the 2020 Ford Expedition

The 2020 Ford Expedition is a three-row SUV available as both a standard wheelbase model and an extended wheelbase model (referred to as MAX). Four trim levels are available, including XLT, Limited, King Ranch, and Platinum. When properly equipped, the Expedition offers best-in-class towing.

Robust powertrain options

To achieve segment-leading towing ability, you need a robust powertrain. That’s why the Ford Expedition comes with an EcoBoost 3.5L V6 engine paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. The engine turns out 375 horsepower and 470 lb.-ft. of torque in the XLT, Limited, and King Ranch models. In the Platinum grade, the engine cranks out 400 horsepower and 480 lb.-ft. of torque.

As always, the Expedition comes standard with rear-wheel-drive; four-wheel drive is optional. A limited-slip differential is also available for maximum grip in slippery situations.

Best-in-class towing capacity

Finally, we get to the question: How much can the 2020 Ford Expedition tow? When equipped with the Heavy-duty Trailer Towing package, standard wheelbase 4x2 models can tow up to 9,300 lbs., while 4x4 models can tow up to 9,200 lbs. Similarly-equipped extended wheelbase MAX models (both 4x2 and 4x4) can tow up to 9,000 lbs.

With the Expedition, towing is also made easy, thanks to advanced technologies. The SUV comes with trailer sway control, which works together with the traction control, stability control, and Blind Spot Information System. There’s also available Pro Trailer Backup Assist – a technology that allows you to use a knob to steer a trailer in reverse – and an optional integrated trailer brake controller.

Other impressive features

The 2020 Ford Expedition can tow whatever you need. But that’s not all – the SUV also offers the latest features to keep the entire family safe and happy.

For example, everyone can enjoy the SYNC® 3 infotainment system with support for Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. There’s also available FordPass Connect™, which can act as a Wi-Fi hotspot for up to 10 devices.

And then there’s the standard Ford Co-Pilot360™ suite of advanced driver-assist technologies. The bundle includes Auto High-Beam Headlamps, BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System) with Cross-Traffic Alert, Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking, a Lane-Keeping System and a Rear View Camera.
