Ford will add an FX4 off-road version of its big Expedition SUV when the version goes on sale later this year.

The FX4 trim level is popular on Ford’s F-150 pickup. The automaker expects it to account for 5% to 10% of Expedition sales when the new, aluminum-body model goes on sale in late fall.

The idea of giving off-road capability to the full-size SUV began in the Middle East, where the Expedition is popular for driving through the soft, deep sand of the Arabian Peninsula. Ford created the FX4 model for that region and then decided some American buyers will also want it.

Ford will announce prices and fuel economy ratings for the 2018 Expedition closer to when sales begin.

The Expedition’s heroic proportions -— the short-wheelbase 2017 Expedition was 16.2 inches longer than a Jeep Grand Cherokee, and the Ford family didn’t get rich by shrinking their SUVs from one generation to the next -— preclude off-roading on trails like the famously twisty and grueling Rubicon, but Expedition owners tend to be more interested in towing capacity than exploring the backcountry.
