The Chevy Suburban vs. Ford Expedition is a classic comparison among Birmingham shoppers looking for their next three-row full-size SUV. In years past, this match-up churned out some pretty comparable specs. But following a recent design overhaul, the all-new 2021 Chevy Suburban pulls ahead of the Ford Expedition in key areas like cargo room, engine power, and more. Get the full story on the Ford Expedition vs. Chevy Suburban with Hendrick Chevrolet Hoover!
Both SUVs have three-row seating, but that doesn’t mean their passenger capacity is the same. The 2021 Chevy Suburban achieves nine-person seating thanks to a front bench seat. Meanwhile, the 2020 Ford Expedition maxes out at just eight passengers. Not just that, but passengers will have more room to get comfortable in the Suburban:

Vestavia Hills shoppers eyeing a full-size SUV are typically doing so because they want plenty of cargo space for road trips, errands, sports equipment, and the like. With the 2nd and 3rd-row seats folded down, the 2021 Chevy Suburban delivers 40 more cubic feet of cargo volume than the 2020 Ford Expedition:

Which SUV has more available horsepower? That would be the 2021 Chevy Suburban, which maxes out at an impressive 420 hp with the optional 6.2L V8 engine. The 2020 Ford Expedition top engine is a 3.5L EcoBoost® engine, which generates a mere 400 hp.
As Chevy and Ford’s top-level SUVs, the Suburban and Expedition each offer a fantastic standard array of features. However, with its lower starting price, the 2021 Suburban proves to be a greater value for Bessemer families on a budget. Take a look at the key features in the Suburban to learn more about its upgrades for 2021:

The Ford Expedition does offer some comparable standard amenities like a Reverse Sensing System and an 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, but other features like tri-zone automatic climate control and power adjustability for the front passenger seat are only available at an added cost, raising the Expedition’s already higher price point even further.
