The 2022 Ford Expedition holds its own next to the 2022 Chevrolet Suburban with lower pricing in the base trims, impressive technology features and hefty hauling capabilities. The Expedition’s standard engine can be configured to offer more horsepower and towing is estimated at 9,300 pounds. The 2022 Chevrolet Suburban offers three engines to choose from and a little more in standard safety features but at a higher price. Let’s compare.
Power
The 2022 Ford Expedition is powered by a twin turbocharged 3.5-liter V-6 paired to a 10-speed automatic and rear-wheel drive or 4WD. Standard horsepower is 380 hp but with the Limited it can increase to 400 hp or 440 hp with the Stealth Performance package. More than the Suburban from start to finish. It can tow up to 9,300 pounds and AWD gets 17/22 mpg (city, highway) or RWD gets 17/23 mpg.
The 2022 Chevrolet Suburban offers three engine options. The base is a 5.3-liter V-8 with 355 horsepower and 21/20 mpg. An available 3-liter turbo diesel inline-six with 277 horsepower and 21/27 mpg is the second option. Or a 6.2-liter V-8 with 420 horsepower and 21/20 mpg. There are optional adaptive dampers and adjustable air suspension but that’s about all it has to compete with the Expedition.

Conclusion
While the 2022 Chevrolet Suburban has a bit more standard safety features and technology, the tech is less impressive than what’s inside the 2022 Ford Expedition. You also won’t get as much in horsepower and towing so we don’t think the more expensive starting price is worth it. Choose the 2022 Ford Expedition for your next ride.
