2018 Ford Expedition vs. 2018 Chevrolet Tahoe

Let's See How the 2018 Ford Expedition Compares to the 2018 Chevy Tahoe in Merced, CA

In a world of full-size SUVs two models may come to mind, the 2018 Ford Expedition and the 2018 Chevrolet Tahoe. But again, Ford keeps raising the bar year after year, making the Expedition stand out in numerous ways. For starters, the 2018 Expedition features a new engine and 10-speed automatic transmission, leaving the Chevy Tahoe sitting on the sidelines. With such a powerful engine, you're going to have best-in-class gas mileage ratings and best-in-class towing capabilities. The 2018 Ford Expedition can tow up an incredible 9,300 pounds while the Chevrolet Tahoe can only handle up to 8,600 pounds when properly equipped. Now that we've caught your attention allow us to provide you with more reasons why you should purchase or lease a 2018 Ford Expedition from your friends at Razzari Ford.

Performance

Remember that new engine we were talking about with the Expedition? Ford engineers decided to make the 3.5L EcoBoost® the standard engine because they know performance is a key factor when SUV shopping. With this engine, direct injection helps maximize power while twin air-to-air intercooled turbochargers deliver a rush of on-demand power. And with a 10-speed automatic transmission with tow/haul mode, you will gain power to ensure maximum traction and a smooth ride on any terrain. The Expedition's engine offers 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque, while the new Tahoe can offer only 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque with its entry-level engine.

Interior Space

If cargo space is at the top of your list, the new Ford Expedition has plenty of room for groceries, luggage, hockey bags, and anything else in between. The 2018 Ford Expedition offers 171.9 cubic feet of total passenger volume, 20.9 cubic feet of cargo space behind the third row, 63.6 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row, and a total cargo capacity of 104.6 cubic feet. Now, are you wondering about the Chevrolet Tahoe? Unfortunately, it only provides 122.4 cubic feet of total passenger volume, 15.3 cubic feet of cargo space behind its third row, 51.7 cubic feet of cargo space behind its second row and a total cargo capacity of 94.7 cubic feet.

Technology

One feature we know the Chevrolet Tahoe doesn't have is the SYNC system. You can upgrade your options to the available SYNC® 3 system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability and enjoy the standard features. It also offers high-speed performance, enhanced voice recognition, a touchscreen with swipe capability, available navigation, pinch-to-zoom functionality, and automatic updates over Wi-Fi. Plus, some of the new Expedition trim levels offer six USB ports plus a center console wireless charger. That way, all your devices stay charged and ready to go.
