How the 2025 Expedition Tremor Elevates Ontario Family Adventures

How the 2025 Expedition Tremor Elevates Ontario Family Adventures

The 2025 Ford Expedition Tremor delivers a rare combination for families in Ontario: luxury SUV comfort with serious off-road capability. Factory-equipped with hardware typically reserved for aftermarket builds, the Tremor trim transforms the full-size Expedition into a three-row adventure machine built to handle everything from cottage trips on rugged backroads to winter escapes through snow-covered trails.

For families in Collingwood and across Ontario who refuse to choose between passenger space and trail performance, the Expedition Tremor offers a solution that doesn't compromise. Eight-passenger seating, 440 horsepower, and proven off-road components work together to create a vehicle ready for daily errands and weekend expeditions alike.

Factory-Built Off-Road Hardware

The 2025 Expedition Tremor arrives with purpose-built off-road equipment straight from the factory. At the foundation sits a High-Output 3.5L EcoBoost V6 engine producing 440 horsepower and 510 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission and standard four-wheel drive with a 3.73 electronic locking rear differential.

Ground clearance measures 10.6 inches — the highest in the Large Traditional Utility class — while 33-inch General Grabber all-terrain tires provide grip on loose surfaces, mud, and snow. The suspension has been re-tuned specifically for off-road use, working alongside an Electric Power-Assisted Steering system calibrated for trail driving.

Key Off-Road Components:

  • 33-inch General Grabber all-terrain tires
  • 10.6-inch ground clearance (class-leading)
  • Heavy-duty skid plates protecting front axle, transfer case, and fuel tank
  • Raptor-inspired running boards and front skid plate
  • Embedded off-road auxiliary lights behind the grille

The Terrain Management System includes Rock Crawl Mode for technical terrain, while Trail Turn Assist tightens the turning radius on narrow paths. Trail 1-Pedal Drive allows drivers to control both acceleration and braking with a single pedal, freeing attention for steering and obstacle navigation.

Three-Row Seating Meets Towing Capability

Full-size capability defines the Expedition Tremor's practical side. Three rows of seating accommodate up to eight passengers, with the available 40/20/40 folding third-row bench seat allowing flexible cargo and passenger configurations. The new Ford Split Gate combines a traditional liftgate with a fold-down tailgate section, creating a 500-pound-rated platform for loading, unloading, or simply taking a break at the trailhead.

When properly equipped, the Expedition Tremor tows up to 4,354 kg (9,600 lbs) with a weight-distributing hitch. Pro Trailer Hitch Assist uses the rear camera and corner radars to align the hitch with the trailer coupler, controlling speed, steering, and braking to stop precisely at the connection point. Pro Trailer Backup Assist then simplifies reversing by allowing drivers to guide the trailer's direction with a rotary knob while the system manages steering inputs.

Cargo capacity behind the third row measures 616 litres, expanding to 1,722 litres with the third row folded and 3,073 litres behind the first row. The available Cargo Tailgate Manager adds an adjustable shelf for organizing gear, tools, or camping equipment.

BlueCruise for Highway Commutes

Highway driving between Collingwood and the Greater Toronto Area becomes less taxing with available BlueCruise hands-free highway driving technology. On pre-mapped divided highways like Highway 400, the system manages steering, braking, and acceleration, allowing drivers to take their hands off the wheel while remaining attentive.

Lane Change Assist enables hands-free lane changes with a turn signal tap when the path is clear, while In-Lane Repositioning subtly shifts the vehicle away from adjacent traffic to provide extra space. BlueCruise is standard on Tremor models, with activation options including a complimentary 90-day trial, one-year plans, or a one-time purchase.

Technology and Interior Comfort


Inside, the Expedition Tremor features a 24-inch panoramic display positioned near the windshield's lower edge, keeping key information in the driver's sight line without obstructing forward visibility. A 13.2-inch centre touchscreen runs SYNC 4 with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, enhanced voice recognition, and cloud-based navigation with real-time traffic data for avoiding congestion on Ontario's busiest routes.

The available Flex Powered Console slides back nearly eight inches at the press of a button, creating secure front-row storage and giving second-row passengers easier access to audio and climate controls. Available exterior zone lighting provides illumination around the vehicle's perimeter, controlled through the infotainment system for selecting specific zones during nighttime camping or tailgating.

Technology Features:

  • 24-inch panoramic digital display
  • 13.2-inch SYNC 4 touchscreen
  • Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
  • Cloud-based navigation with real-time traffic
  • FordPass Connect with remote start via smartphone
  • 360-degree camera for parking and trail navigation
  • Ford Co-Pilot360 Assist 2.0 with adaptive cruise control
