Here’s a breakdown of the major changes for the 2025 Expedition and what it might mean for dealers.
Expedition 2025 Model Year Highlights
Active is replacing XLT, as it has on the 2025 Explorer.
4x2 Drive is now only available on Active.
Limited and Platinum condensed into one trim—Limited has merged into Platinum for 25MY.
SecuriCode Keyless Keypad is standard on 202A and up and isn't transitioning to a DIO like other 25MY vehicles.

Key Takeaways
Platinum—The biggest change for Expedition for 2025 is merging Limited into Platinum. Demand for Platinum will likely grow as customers continue to seek the value of Limited, a trend we’ve seen after Explorer and Super Duty went through similar trim changes.
Active and Tremor—We don’t anticipate a large change in demand for Active or Tremor from their preceding trims (XLT and Timberline, respectively) as the change is mostly in name only.
Simplification—A trend we’re seeing across vehicle lines is simplification. 2025 Expedition will have 4 trim levels with very few additional options.
