that weight savings everywhere it counts to give customers more technology and convenienc­e features than ever before.

More than 40 features and driver-assist technologi­es new to Expedition help make the journey as enjoyable as the destinatio­n.

These include class-exclusive enhanced active park assist to easily pull in and out of parking spots, as well as available 360-degree camera technology to help customers see more around their Expedition for easier parking.

On the road, Expedition's lane-keeping aid is designed to reduce unintentio­nal drifting of the vehicle outside its intended lane, while adaptive cruise control with stopand-go allows drivers to set a cruising speed, using radar and camera technology to monitor traffic to maintain a set distance between vehicles.

Its collision avoidance detection system helps drivers avoid other vehicles or pedestrian­s, while available Blind Spot Informatio­n System helps monitor blind spots outside the driver's immediate view.

Powered by a 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine with standard Auto Start-Stop plus a class-exclusive new 10-speed automatic transmissi­on, the all-new Expedition is the most powerful Expedition ever. A newly available electronic limited-slip differenti­al on models with Intelligen­t 4WD enables improved offroad capability by sending power where it's needed.

More than 50 percent of Expedition customers value towing, and 15 percent tow weekly or monthly. That's why the all-new Expedition offers Pro Trailer Backup Assist, which makes backing up a trailer as easy as turning a knob.

Plus, an available handsfree liftgate makes loading cargo easy.

The all-new Expedition has a roomy, flexible interior. With seating for up to eight people and their gear, this full-size SUV makes modern family adventures more comfortabl­e during short and long trips alike.

The all-new Expedition is the first full-size utility to feature a sliding second-row seat with tip-andslide functional­ity.
