Just recently, I had the privilege of driving the all-new 2025 Ford Expedition (Platinum trim), and it’s a game-changer for full-size SUVs.
Launched in the UAE by Al Tayer Motors and Premier Motors, this fifth-generation Expedition blends bold design, advanced technology, and unmatched capability, setting a new benchmark for family adventures.
As a huge plus, it boasts a top-tier Bang & Olufsen audio system. It delivers a rich, high-fidelity audio experience with a focus on both technical excellence and aesthetic appeal.
The 24-inch panoramic display and 13.2-inch center stack screen create a futuristic command center, while the Ford Digital Experience offers personalized driver profiles and seamless app integration.
Multiple charging ports keep everyone connected, and the AC cools the spacious interior instantly. If you fold a seat in the second row, the third row guys could comfortably nap in there. It’s so comfortable.
The innovative Ford Split Gate (a hybrid of a traditional liftgate and a pickup truck tailgate) makes cargo management effortless, especially with the Open-on-Approach feature.
Long items fit easily with the third-row flexible seating, and four exterior lighting zones illuminate your campsite or tailgate. Towing? The Expedition handles up to 9,600 lbs with ease, thanks to advanced towing tech like Pro Trailer Hitch Assist.
Safety is best-in-class with six airbags, a lane-keeping system, BLIS, and pre-collision assist. The FordPass app, free for five years, lets you remotely monitor and control your vehicle.
Right towards the end of the drive, I had a chance to catch up with Helal Hanei Omar, Senior Vice-President, Ford and Lincoln Sales, Al Tayer Motors. “The all-new Ford Expedition delivers an exceptional blend of power, comfort, and capability for UAE families,” said Helal but what do I say? My final word below
Whether navigating city streets or off-road trails, this SUV exceeds expectations, making every journey a luxurious escape.
