It’s been over a year since we got our first glimpse of the new Ford Expedition, and now we have a clear look at the updated SUV before you were supposed to see it. Aside from some camouflage, here’s a full look at the 2025 Ford Expedition and its gorgeous new face.
The prototype was caught out in the open in Ford’s hometown of Dearborn. The completely redesigned grille and front fascia are clearly visible here. The clean look is a stark departure from the current model’s rectangular design. Gone are the large C-bracket headlights, replaced by much smaller lenses that blend into a smaller egg-shaped grille. Tapered LED lights now adorn the corners, forming a basic C shape that slopes down toward the bottom of the grille in a style similar to the updated F-150. Camouflage hides the details on the lower fascia, but the corner vents are much smaller.

From a profile view, the Expedition doesn’t look like much has changed. However, take a closer look at the chrome trim around the rear window. It juts up slightly, adding a bit of character to the Expedition’s famously flat beltline. We can also clearly see the new wheels, identified as 24-inchers by our spy sources. At the very back, we see thinner taillights, and below them, there’s a slight change in trim on the fascia. Also interesting at the rear is an orange sticker that identifies this as a 2025 model year vehicle.
We’ve seen the exterior, but what about the cabin? We’re betting Ford will give the Expedition a major digital makeover, perhaps with a wide digital display that spans the dashboard like the Lincoln Nautilus. Under the hood, it’s possible Ford will add a hybrid option in addition to the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6, though nothing has been confirmed.
The current Expedition entered production in 2017, but we’re hesitant to call it a new generation. Visual updates will certainly set it apart from the previous model, but the familiar platform should carry over with few—if any—changes. We’ll find out for sure later this year when the truck officially launches.
