Every passenger in the Ford Expedition MAX has adequate room to move around inside thanks to the efficient use of internal space. This SUV has one of the best third-row accessibility features, making it simple for adults to enter and exit the third row without having to be a contortionist. The Expedition's center console has a lot of buttons, which could be confusing for a novice operator. Although the design is not user-friendly, getting used to it won't take too long.

For the second row, a three-seat bench is standard, but if you like, you can specify a pair of captain's chairs. The inside cubby storage in the MAX is unmatched. Every model has a third row that can be powered down and folded up from the back seats or the cargo compartment. For a level floor that makes it simpler to carry cargo, the second and third rows can both fold entirely flat. The major difference between the regular SUV and the MAX variant comes in the form of additional cargo room as it offers a total of 121.4 cu-ft instead of 104.6 cu-ft.

All the SUVs are massive and there will be no complaints regarding the passenger space or cargo area. All these extended SUVs are specifically targeted at the crowd looking to take a whole camping unit along with them. All these SUVs provide a very similar cabin space and only differ in terms of the storage room they provide. Both GMC and Chevrolet take the lead in terms of the maximum cargo area while the Ford in comparison falls at the bottom of the table. This does not however mean the Expedition MAX lacks space in any way as it offers enough space to convert it into a makeshift motorhome.

How intuitive is the 2023 Ford Expedition MAX infotainment system?
Users are greeted by a gigantic 12.0-inch display that is quite useful and sensitive to touch inputs up front. If that isn't big enough, though, there is the option to select a 15.5-inch touchscreen that stands tall in a portrait configuration, picked straight from the Ford Mustang Mach-E. The system has the perfect number of physical buttons and knobs, a seamless navigation system, and wireless phone connectivity to maintain user interaction as alive and engaging as possible without becoming overly difficult. The base variant's audio unit comes equipped with a 6-speaker arrangement, but when consumers upgrade, they are greeted by a 12-speaker Bang & Olufsen system. With the King Ranch and Platinum trims, Ford has opted to go one step further and offer a 22-speaker Bang & Olufsen system that would delight any music enthusiast.
