Ford has pulled the wraps off of the 2022 Expedition range, and it’s redesigned with new available trim levels. One of the new trims that should excite Expedition fans is the Timberline, which Ford says is the most off-road-capable Expedition ever produced. It provides higher ground clearance for clearing obstacles, Trail Turn Assist for making tight turns, and heavy-duty underbody skid plates for durability.
That skid plate comes directly off the F-150 Raptor. For those who are more interested in performance on the road, a new Expedition Stealth Edition Performance Package brings unique styling along with best-in-class power from a high output twin-turbo 3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6 engine combined with a sport-tuned suspension.
Enhanced Off-Road Capabilities
The Timberline trim is designed specifically for those who crave adventure and off-road experiences. With its higher ground clearance, the Timberline can easily navigate rocky terrains and uneven surfaces. The Trail Turn Assist feature is particularly useful for making tight turns on narrow trails, enhancing maneuverability in challenging conditions. The heavy-duty underbody skid plates, borrowed from the F-150 Raptor, provide added protection against rough terrains, ensuring that the vehicle’s undercarriage remains intact even in the harshest environments.
Additionally, the Timberline comes equipped with all-terrain tires and a unique front fascia that improves the approach angle, making it easier to tackle steep inclines. The advanced four-wheel-drive system ensures optimal traction on various surfaces, from muddy trails to sandy dunes. This makes the Timberline an excellent choice for outdoor enthusiasts who need a reliable and capable vehicle for their adventures.
Performance and Technology
In the Stealth Edition Performance Package, the engine produces 440 horsepower and 510 pound-foot of torque. The package is available on Expedition Limited and Expedition Limited MAX. This high-output twin-turbo 3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6 engine is paired with a sport-tuned suspension, providing a thrilling driving experience with enhanced handling and stability. The Stealth Edition also features unique styling elements, such as blacked-out exterior accents and distinctive badging, giving it a more aggressive and sporty appearance.
For those who prioritize advanced technology and driver-assist features, the Expedition Platinum offers Ford BlueCruise, an anti-free driver-assist technology. BlueCruise allows for hands-free driving on pre-qualified sections of divided highways, making long road trips more comfortable and less tiring. This system uses advanced cameras and radar sensors to monitor the road and surrounding vehicles, ensuring a safe and smooth driving experience.
The 2022 Expedition also comes with a host of other advanced features, including a large touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, a premium sound system, and multiple USB ports for charging devices. The spacious interior provides ample room for passengers and cargo, making it an ideal choice for families and those who need extra space for their gear.
In addition to the Timberline and Stealth Edition Performance Package, the 2022 Expedition range includes several other trim levels, each offering a unique combination of features and capabilities. Whether you’re looking for a rugged off-road vehicle, a high-performance SUV, or a luxurious family hauler, the new Expedition lineup has something to offer.
