The record

The Expedition replaced the Bronco for 1997 with an F-150-based four-door body and the Eddie Bauer trim; the 2003 second generation added an independent rear suspension, the 2007 third the long EL, the 2018 fourth an aluminium body and EcoBoost power, and the 2022 update the Timberline with a rear locker and all-terrain tyres. The Lincoln Navigator is its twin.

AI rendering impression

An AI rendering impression starts from a 3D model of this vehicle, which an image model then paints into a scene. It is an artist's impression of the type, made to give a feel for the vehicle in its element — not a photograph, and not a record of any particular vehicle.

Proportions, fittings, markings, colours and the setting can all drift from the original in the process. For the vehicle's actual details, rely on the specification, the photographs and the cited sources on this page.
