2025 Ford Expedition Tremor Shows Off New Screens in Spy Photos
The 2025 Ford Expedition Tremor has been spotted without camouflage, showing off a butch new look for the off-road trim.
The grille and headlights have a more chiseled look and the Expedition appears to adopt the split tailgate found on the new Navigator.
The Expedition doesn't share the Navigator's 48-inch screen, however, with a smaller display floating above the squared-off steering wheel.
Full-size SUVs are a hot topic this year. General Motors refreshed its gaggle of competitors—the Cadillac Escalade, GMC Yukon, and Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban—and Infiniti took the covers off an audacious new QX80, soon to be followed by a reworked Nissan Armada. Lincoln responded with a thoroughly revised Navigator, boasting a 48-inch dashboard-spanning display. Now Ford is readying an updated Expedition to rival the latest from Chevrolet, and our spy photographers captured photos of the 2025 Ford Expedition fully undisguised, revealing the off-road-focused Tremor trim and an overhauled cabin.
While the outgoing Expedition used the "Timberline" name for its all-terrain special, the 2025 model is expected to drop that nameplate for the tried-and-true Tremor moniker borrowed from Ford's truck lineup. As with other Tremor-branded vehicles, the Expedition wears an array of orange accents across the exterior, from the tow hooks to the bumper light housings and the rear badging. The wheels feature a single orange-painted spoke, looking nearly identical to the wheels from the Maverick Tremor. Unsurprisingly the Expedition's are bigger, with this prototype wearing 33-inch General Grabber A/TX tires measuring 275/70R18, the same setup found on the F-150 Tremor.
The body-on-frame Expedition gains a tougher-looking front end that draws a family resemblance to the F-150 Tremor, with the headlights and grille all housed within one large rectilinear shape. The grille design is likely unique to this Tremor model and features thin auxiliary LED lights in a crossbar that passes behind the Ford badge. The headlights are more chiseled than on the outgoing Expedition and seamlessly blend into the grille. Around back, the Expedition looks to follow the Navigator with a new split tailgate, made more obvious here by a black upper section that we expect will be body-colored on production examples. The taillights have also been redesigned and split into two parts, with the main vertical section complemented by a small horizontal rectangle mounted inboard on the tailgate.
Our spy photographers also peeked inside the 2025 Expedition, revealing a reworked dashboard and unusual screen setup. While the Navigator features a pillar-to-pillar screen across the top of the dashboard, the Expedition takes a different approach. The same general structure is there but the screen only covers nearly half of the upper shelf, sitting above and behind a squircle-shaped steering wheel and a smaller more traditionally shaped screen. The upper screen looks a bit lost on the grey backdrop, and it's unclear if the space on either side of the screen will be able to be used for storage. Since this is the Tremor model, the cabin is decorated with orange stitching, and "Tremor" is embossed into the seat backs.
In the Navigator, the sole powertrain carried over unchanged. With the Expedition sharing the same twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V-6, we don't expect any major changes, and the Tremor and Limited trim with the Stealth Performance package should continue to produce 440 horsepower. The less potent versions of the V-6—offered with 380 hp in the base Expedition and 400 ponies in the Limited—should also return. The 2025 Ford Expedition should be revealed in full before the end of the year.
