Whether you need to tow a boat, camper, or trailer, having a vehicle that can handle the load is essential. The 2026 Ford Expedition stands out as one of the most capable SUVs on the market, with impressive towing and payload ratings across its lineup of trims.
Towing
The 2026 Ford Expedition offers robust towing capacity thanks to its powerful engine options and sturdy body-on-frame construction. When properly equipped, the Expedition can tow up to 9,300 pounds. Even the base XL trim can handle up to 9,000 pounds. The range-topping Platinum trim with the high-output version of the same engine maxes out the Expedition's towing ability.
To make towing easier and safer, every 2026 Expedition comes standard with trailer sway control. This feature uses selective braking and engine power adjustments to help maintain trailer stability on the road. For additional towing confidence, the available Pro Trailer Backup Assist system helps you seamlessly maneuver a trailer in reverse.
Payload
The 2026 Ford Expedition also boasts generous payload capacity, which reflects how much weight the vehicle can carry in passengers and cargo. Depending on the trim and configuration, the Expedition offers a maximum payload capacity ranging from 1,640 to 1,900 pounds. This allows you to load up the spacious cabin with people and gear for your adventures.
It's worth noting that the Expedition's payload capacity is affected by the specific engine, drivetrain, and equipment. The base XL STX trim has the highest payload rating, while the off-road oriented Timberline and luxury-focused Platinum sacrifice some capacity for their specialized features and appointments.
With its stout towing and payload abilities, the 2026 Ford Expedition proves itself as a true workhorse in the full-size SUV segment. Experience the Expedition's unrivaled capability for yourself by visiting Classic Ford in Galveston, TX for a test drive today.
