With America’s best-selling truck for nearly 40 years, Ford seems intent on continuing this trajectory with its all-new 2021 Ford F-150 truck. Loaded with all of the amenities that have helped build this truck’s reputation for rugged reliability and responsive handling in even the trickiest situations, the new Ford F-150 will easily have you coming back for more. Let’s take a closer look at some of the exciting features that set this truck far ahead of the pack. 

A Cornucopia of Engine Options

Ford has assembled a veritable rainbow of choices to power your F-150 to ably meet your specific requirements. The available 3.0-liter Power Stroke diesel engine delivers powerful performance and handling with 250 horsepower and 440 pound-feet of torque. To support best-in-class towing capability, the available 2.5-liter EcoBoost V-6 puts forward 400 horsepower and 500 pound-feet of torque, more than sufficient to tow up to a staggering 14,000 pounds. A 5.0-liter V-8 engine alongside a 10-speed transmission ably supports the F-150’s maximum payload of 3,325 pounds.

New for this year, Ford has added a groundbreaking 3.5-liter V-6 hybrid engine that couples the might of gas and electric energy to release an impressive 430 horsepower and 570 pound-feet of torque. All of this hybrid power provides the brawn to haul an astounding 12,700 of towing capacity.  

Upgraded Interior Features

For those of us who may use our vehicle as a mobile office or control room, the new Ford F-150 has been outfitted with a range of interior appointments to make any ride productive and pleasurable. An available interior work surface functions as a storable table to support a laptop, lunch break, or a surface for writing when you need it most. A tailgate workbench further encourages productivity with thoughtful features like rulers, a cup holder, and a mobile device holder. 

An upgraded infotainment system with an available 12-inch screen provides drivers with a virtual co-pilot with cloud-based connectivity. It can provide communication continuity alongside navigation support and in-depth information on vehicle features. Available FordPass Connect offers drivers and passengers a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot that can be accessed from up to 50 feet away from the vehicle. 

A Technologically Advanced Driving Experience

Available driver assistance features vastly improve the driving experience to make every turn behind the wheel safe, confident, and powerful. Ford’s Co-Pilot 360 Technology offers features like the Lane-Keeping System to help keep you squarely in your lane even during a brief moment of distraction. 

The Pre-Collision Assist feature serves as a second set of eyes on the road, scanning ahead for any possible collision. If it senses imminent danger, the system can activate automatically to provide an added layer of security. 

The Hill Descent Control system provides a cushion of adjusted braking pressure to help control steering when you are going down a steep grade. This feature keeps the driver’s focus squarely on the road ahead instead of toggling between steering and transmission control. Parking in even the tightest parallel parking spots is a breeze with the Active Park Assist button to help you ease into the spot.
