igor Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Has anyone uncovered EPA milaeage estimates for the 2007 Expedition yet? none yet, but I would be surprised to see more than 1mpg jump over the 14/19 from the 06. Igor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clem Z. Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 (edited) Has anyone uncovered EPA mileage estimates for the 2007 Expedition yet? The vehicle guide that is available for download on this website, page 13 under fuel economy says 14/19 for the 4x2 Non-EL Expedition and 14/17 for the 4x4 Non-EL Expedition. No estimates for the EL version. The guide was published in May so the specs may have been preliminary. I think with the six-speed there should be a difference. We'll see as we get closer to launch.

range Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 The vehicle guide that is available for download on this website, page 13 under fuel economy says 14/19 for the 4x2 Non-EL Expedition and 14/17 for the 4x4 Non-EL Expedition. No estimates for the EL version. The guide was published in May so the specs may have been preliminary. I think with the six-speed there should be a difference. We'll see as we get closer to launch. "The Expedition will deliver 14 mpg (16.8 L/100 km) in the city and 20 mpg (11.7 L/100 km) on the highway and meet Ultra Low Emission Vehicle II standards, Mascarenas says. The SUV will be available with an upgraded version of Ford’s 4-wheel-drive system, developed in-house by Ford engineers and exclusive to the Expedition and upcoming Lincoln Navigator, slated to bow later this year. The 4WD system has very little carryover from the ’06 model, Brian Hildreth, Expedition powertrain integration supervisor, tells Ward's. “The system that we haven’t taken the opportunity to upgrade, because it’s such a tough product, is the front axle in this vehicle. But the 4WD transfer case is all-new for ’07, and the drive lines that bring it to the wheels are all new,†Hildreth says. Engineers focused on efficiencies in the rear axle for better fuel economy, with improved lube flow capability in the rear axle." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
