If your family is expanding, or you’d like a full-size SUV, the 2018 Ford Expedition is the right vehicle for you. With a better performance and more features, like keyless start, the 2018 Chevrolet Tahoe simply can’t compete. Continue reading to learn more and help decide if you’d like to lease or purchase an Expedition at Sheridan Ford.
Performance and Capability
You might expect an SUV of this size to lag a little bit in its power; that’s not the case with the Expedition. The 3.5-L EcoBoost® engine delivers 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque3, a more impressive display of power than the Tahoe’s 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque.
You can also haul more with the Ford SUV, and still enjoy a smooth ride. The Expedition can tow a max of 9,300 lbs., while the Tahoe can tow a max of 8,600 lbs. You also have the help of the available Pro Trailer Backup Assist™2,3, which uses your rear camera to easily see where your trailer is and effectively back it up or steer it.
Drive with greater confidence with these driver-assist features:
- Adaptive Cruise Control
- BLIS (Blind Spot Information System)
- Pre-Collision Assist
- Lane-Keeping System
Space
The Expedition proves itself to be much more spacious than the Tahoe, with 171.9 cubic feet of total passenger volume (compared to 122.4 cubic feet). You also have much more space for cargo.
| Expedition | Tahoe | |
| Behind 1st Row | 104.6 cubic feet | 94.7 cubic feet |
| Behind 2nd Row | 63.6 cubic feet | 51.7 cubic feet |
| Behind 3rd Row | 20.9 cubic feet | 15.3 cubic feet |
If you travel by car to your vacation destination, having more cargo space for luggage is definitely something to consider.
Technology
The Chevrolet Tahoe does not feature SYNC® technology, nor can you upgrade to SYNC®3 to enjoy Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ connectivity. When you upgrade, you can make phone calls, reply to text messages, change songs and more all with voice-responsive technology.
With SYNC®3, the 8-inch LCD touch screen will display the map you’re following in addition to giving you audible turn-by-turn directions. The Ford Expedition allows for a great pairing of entertainment and information.
Now that you have a snapshot of what the Expedition can do that the Tahoe can’t, visit us at Sheridan Ford for a test drive and to learn more. We’re eager to help you drive off the lot with the right SUV!
