How big is the back of an Expedition?
The back of a Ford Expedition offers flexible cargo space that ranges from about 20.9 cubic feet behind the third row to roughly 63.6 cubic feet with the third row folded, and up to about 104.6 cubic feet behind the first row—with a maximum around 121.5 cubic feet when the rear rows are folded. These figures apply to the current Expedition generation and can vary by trim and configuration.
Cargo space by seating configuration
The following figures reflect official measurements for the current Expedition generation and show how space changes as you rearrange the seating.
- Behind the third row: 20.9 cubic feet
- Behind the second row (third row folded): 63.6 cubic feet
- Behind the first row (second and third rows folded): 104.6 cubic feet
- Maximum cargo volume (rear rows folded): 121.5 cubic feet
These numbers can vary slightly by trim, optional equipment, and how the seating is configured. They provide a practical baseline for planning trips with passengers or cargo.
Maximizing space and practical tips
To maximize cargo area, fold the rear rows as needed to create a flat load floor. The most space is available when the second and third rows are folded; the front row usually remains in its normal position for everyday use. If you frequently carry long items, check your specific model year’s spec sheet for any variations in measurement conventions.
- Fold the third row to access about 63.6 cu ft behind the second row.
- Fold both rear rows to access about 104.6 cu ft behind the first row (with the front seats in their standard position).
- For exact measurements and any special seating options, consult your vehicle’s official spec sheet.
Summary
The Expedition is designed to balance passenger capacity with cargo flexibility. With all rear seats in use, you have around 21 cubic feet of space behind the third row. Fold the third row for about 64 cubic feet, or fold both rear rows to reach roughly 105 cubic feet behind the front row, with a maximum around 121.5 cubic feet under certain measurement conventions. Always verify the numbers for your exact model year and configuration.
