Full-size SUVs such as the 2024 Chevy Tahoe and the 2024 Ford Expedition offer maximum passenger and cargo capacity. Both vehicles are fantastic for carpool runs and carrying extended family. They can also be loaded with luggage for interstate trips. Furthermore, they come with plenty of technological and safety features.
To pick the right full-size SUV, let’s do a Chevy vs. Ford comparison. We’ll see what the 2024 Tahoe and the 2024 Expedition offer in terms of interior capabilities, powertrains and performance capabilities, and safety features. We can then tell you which full-size SUV is best for you. Contact us at Jay Hodge Chevrolet in Sulphur Springs, TX, to learn about the 2024 Tahoe range. We’ll explain each trim, powertrain, and option in detail. Our team can even recommend the best combination of all these factors based on your requirements.
The 2024 Tahoe and the 2024 Expedition have three rows of seats and are rated to carry up to eight adults. The 2024 Tahoe’s interior offers 178 cubic feet of space, while the 2024 Expedition has 172 cubic feet. Hence, the Chevy is more roomy, particularly in the third row. Furthermore, the 2024 Tahoe also wins on cargo capacity. It has 25 cubic feet with the third row deployed, while the 2024 Expedition only provides 19 cubic feet in the same configuration. For more cargo space, the third and second rows of either full-size SUV can be folded. In this configuration, 2024 Tahoe buyers get almost 123 cubic feet of capacity. Hence, you can easily move furniture, domestic appliances, and large volumes of assorted cargo when required.
Some trims of both models offer captain chairs for the second row. This replaces the three-person bench with two individual seats. Selecting this option also provides a convenient walk-through passage for easier third-row access. The two captain chairs can be adjusted and come with armrests. Therefore, they are popular for families with taller or elderly members who need more comfort and support. Conversely, the 2024 Tahoe’s base LS trim offers a 40-20-40 front seat configuration. Selecting this allows up to nine occupants to be transported. The 2024 Expedition doesn’t offer this feature.
The 2024 Tahoe and the 2024 Expedition include features such as dual-zone or tri-zone climate control, power-adjustable front seats with heating and ventilation, and heated outboard rear seats, depending on trim. Higher trims also come with features such as extra USB charging ports, wireless phone chargers, and premium sound systems. Buyers can also choose a rear entertainment system with dual screens for either full-size SUV. Furthermore, both models come with standard Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ for smartphone integration. Bluetooth® hands-free and wireless audio streaming is also provided for all trims.
Chevy offers the 2024 Tahoe range with three engines. The standard powertrain for most trims is a naturally aspirated 5.3-liter V8 that provides 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. However, buyers seeking more power and performance can upgrade to a naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V8 that delivers 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. Finally, there’s a 3-liter turbocharged 6-cylinder diesel engine available. This engine makes 277 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque.
A 10-speed automatic transmission is standard, and some trims include paddle shifters on the steering wheel for manual gear changes. Some trims come in rear-wheel drive form and can be optioned with four-wheel drive. Others are exclusively four-wheel drive. Meanwhile, buyers seeking off-road performance can choose the Z71 trim. This comes only in four-wheel drive and gains a 2-speed transfer case with low range. All-terrain tires and underbody protection are also included. Furthermore, the Z71 trim comes with air suspension and adaptive dampers. These are also present for selected other trims.
The 2024 Ford Expedition has a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6. Depending on trim, buyers get 380 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque to 440 horsepower and 510 pound-feet of torque. A 10-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive are standard. Four-wheel drive is available, as are off-road enhancements.
The 2024 Chevy Tahoe comes with a comprehensive set of safety features. Automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, and lane-keeping assist are standard. Lane departure warning, blind spot monitoring, a tire pressure monitoring system, and a rear-view camera are also included for all trims. Higher trims get adaptive cruise control and a surround-view camera system. The 2024 Ford Expedition has some, but not all, of these safety systems.
The 2024 Chevrolet Tahoe wins our Chevy vs. Ford match-up. It’s got more space, tech, and safety equipment. It’s also available with a great range of engines and useful off-road enhancements. To test-drive a 2024 Tahoe in Sulphur Springs, TX, contact Jay Hodge Chevrolet today.
