2015 Ford Expedition:


What does 2015 Ford Expedition has to offer for the year 2015?

The 2015 Ford Expedition has been equipped with updated new engine, elusive changes in style, and new suspension options along with an improved interior.

Introduction:
No doubt there are a number of SUV’s available in the market nowadays offering impressive mileage, enough cargo space and roomy interiors, but still some families look for the bigger cars. This is the point where full size SUV’s that is traditional like the Ford 2015 Expedition come in the scene. It offers heavy duty towing capacity, three rows of seating and is spacious enough even for the largest families.

The Ford 2015 Expedition looks more modern than the last year’s model. All thanks to the new style of the front and rear but the biggest change offered is under the hood. In order to provide fuel economy, the Ford has dropped its V8 engine. It is not even available in options. Rather every Ford 2015 Expedition is adorned with a turbocharged V6 engine offering 365 horsepower and coming up with 420 pounds feet of torque. It is better than the V8 engine in every respect. Suspension ofExpedition has been updated as well. It is available with damping along with three selectable drive modes i.e. normal, comfort and sport. This is an added feature in a vehicle that is already large and is appealing for the car buyers.

The Ford 2015 Expedition is known to be one of those vehicles that are known to handle anything that is thrown at it. When it is properly equipped then it is capable of towing almost 9,200 pounds and offers seating capacity for eight people. The interior of the Ford 2015 Expedition is adorned with modern look and better internal equipment.This includes the latest My Ford touch infotainment interface. When it is about taking care of the cargo then no doubt the 2015 Ford Expedition will serve the purpose really well.All you need to do is to fold the second and third rows of seating and you will have enough space for your cargo.

One of the major drawbacks of the 2015 Ford Expedition is its sheer size. To overcome the issue related to the parking of the vehicle, rear view camera and rear parking sensors are there as standard.
