What the numbers say

The premium isn't spread evenly. Collision — damage to your own car in a crash — carries this car's highest loss index at 108, while Medical payments sits at 62. That gap is the real reason behind the price, and it's the part a quote form never shows you. Among 78 suvs we hold data for, the Expedition MAX ranks #38 from cheapest, below the class median of 94. Against what the car is worth the bill looks different again: a 2025 Expedition MAX sells for a median $62,999, so a year of cover costs 2.1% of the car's value. Over 7 generations of data the index has climbed from 87 (2016-2018) to 93 (2022-2024). Calculated from 14 insurance-loss records and live US listing prices.

Why a Expedition MAX costs what it does

Insurers don't price a car with one number — they track losses separately for each kind of cover. An index of 100 is the average vehicle, so anything above means this model generates costlier claims of that type:

More on the Ford Expedition MAX

Ford Expedition MAX insurance — frequently asked

How much is insurance for a Ford Expedition MAX?

About $1,343 a year for full coverage at the national average, versus $1,438 for a typical car. That's the model's insurance-loss index of 93 applied to the US average premium.

Why is the Expedition MAX expensive or cheap to insure?

Its costliest area is Collision (index 108), which covers damage to your own car in a crash. Insurers set premiums from claim history like this, not from the sticker price.

Is the Expedition MAX cheaper to insure than rivals?

It ranks #38 of 78 in the suvs class, where the median index is 94 against this car's 93. Cheaper rivals are listed in the chart above.

Is that a lot relative to the car's value?

A year of cover is 2.1% of what a 2025 Expedition MAX sells for (a median $62,999). Cheap cars often show a higher percentage even when the dollar premium is lower.

Does its safety rating lower the premium?

Not directly. The Expedition MAX holds 5 stars from NHTSA, but crash-test performance and repair cost are priced separately — a car can protect occupants well and still be costly to fix.

Where does this data come from?

Insurance-loss indices published for real vehicles, combined with NAIC state average premiums. It's claim history, not a quote engine — so it shows what these cars actually cost insurers rather than what one company would offer you.

Will my own quote match this?

Treat it as a baseline for the car itself. Your figure also moves with age, driving record, deductible, mileage and ZIP code — the same Expedition MAX can differ by hundreds between two drivers.

How we work this out

Insurance-loss indices come from published claim data for real vehicles, where 100 is the average car; we average every recorded variant of the model's latest generation (14 records for the Ford Expedition MAX). The dollar figure applies that index to the NAIC US average premium of $1,438 (2023); state figures use each state's own average. Prices for the value comparison are ForCar's medians of live US listings. This is a baseline for the vehicle, not a personal quote. Last updated Jul 2026. Reviewed by , founder of ForCar.
