Law enforcement agencies nationwide just gained a powerful new ally in the field. The 2025 Ford Expedition SSV (Special Service Vehicle) is now available for order, offering police departments a cutting-edge solution for transporting officers, suspects, and essential equipment. With updates inspired by the civilian Expedition, this rugged SUV is built to handle the demands of the job while delivering comfort and versatility.
Here’s everything you need to know about this feature-packed police cruiser.
Two Configurations, One Mission
The 2025 Expedition SSV comes in two seating layouts to meet the diverse needs of law enforcement:
- Standard Two-Row Configuration: This version offers ample seating for officers and plenty of space for equipment storage.
- Expedition Max SSV: With its extended wheelbase, this model adds a third row featuring a 60/40 power-folding split and power recline. Whether it’s extra personnel or mission-critical gear, this layout ensures there’s room for everything.
At the rear, the split gate design adds functionality. Officers can access equipment quickly through the hatch or use the lower tailgate as a sturdy workbench capable of supporting up to 500 pounds.

Tech-Forward Interior
Ford hasn’t skimped on tech for the Expedition SSV. Inside, it boasts a massive 24.0-inch dashboard display, seamlessly combining the digital gauge cluster and infotainment system into one futuristic screen.
However, the SSV version has been tailored to law enforcement needs. The center console has been redesigned to house radios, computers, and other essential equipment, ensuring everything is within easy reach for officers. This thoughtful setup blends advanced tech with practical utility, making it an ideal workspace on the move.
Serious Power Under the Hood
Every Expedition SSV is powered by Ford’s proven 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V-6, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. This setup delivers an impressive 400 horsepower and 440 lb-ft of torque, ensuring the SSV is ready for high-speed pursuits or tough terrain.
Unlike its civilian counterpart, which offers a high-output engine option, all SSV models maintain this single powertrain configuration. The police-exclusive version also features all-wheel drive for added control in various driving conditions.
Exceptional Towing Capability
When duty calls for heavy lifting, the Expedition SSV answers with up to 9600 pounds of towing capacity, making it perfect for hauling trailers or large loads. Ford’s trailer-assist technology suite further enhances its towing performance, providing confidence and precision on the job.
For departments opting for the Expedition Max SSV, the longer wheelbase slightly reduces towing capacity to 9000 pounds—still plenty to handle most missions.
Designed for Duty
The 2025 Ford Expedition SSV takes the best features of the civilian model and enhances them for law enforcement needs. From its versatile seating configurations to its tech-forward cabin and powerful drivetrain, this full-size SUV is a practical, reliable, and capable tool for modern policing.
Ready to Serve
Whether you’re outfitting your fleet for urban patrols or rural operations, the 2025 Expedition SSV is ready to deliver. With order banks now open, departments can configure their ideal setup and ensure their officers are equipped with the best vehicle for the job.
