New 2026 Ford Expedition Max Active With Navigation

The 2026 Ford Expedition Max Active is designed for families who need serious space, flexibility, and comfort for both everyday school runs and extended road trips.

Parents seeking a vehicle that can adapt to the demands of a busy household will appreciate this SUV's thoughtful design. The spacious cabin provides ample legroom in all three rows, ensuring comfort for both young children and teenagers. The Oxford White exterior and Ultra Dark Space Gray interior create a modern, inviting atmosphere for family outings. In regions like Lakeland, FL, where weekend getaways and road trips are part of family life, the Expedition Max Active delivers the versatility and reliability needed for everything from daily errands to vacations with extended family.

Powered by the EcoBoost 3.5L V6 GTDi DOHC engine paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, the Expedition Max Active offers smooth, confident acceleration even when fully loaded with passengers and cargo. The powertrain is engineered for consistent performance and stability, making highway cruising relaxed and stress-free. With an EPA-estimated 16 MPG city and 24 MPG highway, it balances power with reasonable efficiency for a full-size SUV, so families can travel further between fill-ups without sacrificing comfort.

Safety takes center stage in this SUV, with a suite of advanced active features designed to protect what matters most. Multiple airbag zones—including dual front, dual side, and overhead coverage—help shield every occupant. The Expedition Max Active includes ABS brakes, electronic stability control, and traction control for secure handling in changing conditions. Key parent-focused technologies such as a rearview camera, Intersection Assist, and automatic high-beam headlights support safe driving, while the LATCH system in the rear seats makes child seat installation straightforward and secure. The emergency communication system (911 Assist) and rear parking sensors further enhance peace of mind for families.

Family convenience is maximized with the Equipment Group 202A Touring Package, which brings navigation, the Ford Digital Experience, and BlueCruise hands-free driving capability for stress-free long drives. The SUV is equipped with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, SiriusXM with 360L, and six speakers for seamless connectivity and entertainment. Comfort features like tri-zone automatic climate control, power-adjustable front captain's chairs, and rear air conditioning keep everyone happy on the road. Thoughtful touches such as a rear window defroster, keyless entry, and split-folding rear seats make daily routines easier.

Compared to other large SUVs like the Chevrolet Suburban and Toyota Sequoia, the Expedition Max Active stands out for its flexible third-row seating and comprehensive suite of active safety features.

How many car seats fit in the back? The flexible third-row split-bench allows for multiple car seat configurations, easily handling three across. Is this SUV safe for kids and teens?
