Don't even bring that particular one up!! As you said, shocking that a much smaller car with an I 4 turbo engine performed that poorly on the highway, but remember it has just 6 speeds as opposed to 10 with the Expy which has really tall 9th and 10th gears for efficiency (we had a 2019 CX9 and I for the record never got to 22 mpg on any trip in 3 years regardless of how gently I tried to drive it to achieve a new record. ON the plus side though, I still got 18-19 constantly in City driving. I did love the car though)Our 22 cx9 won't avg even 23 mpg on the hwy and it's only 4500lbs.
Our 22 Expedition ltd AWD no tow pkg sits at 16.x for mixed driving currently, mostly city jaunts by my wife. Have reached 21 on the highway easily on regular fuel
