Are you ready for the next generation of V8 power? Across North America critics are sharing fleeting video footage - gleefully watching as the 2021 F-150 rolls by and crossing their fingers that the distant roar they hear belongs to an enhanced V8.
According to Motor One, Ford is preparing its assembly line for the new F-150 - and the testing process has begun. Along the Colorado peaks the brand recently unveiled its latest F-Series powerhouse, pitting it against sharp inclines and harsh turns alike. Though heavily camouflaged, this platform is already sparking excitement, with critics citing both an upgraded engine and a series of chassis updates.
Beneath the hood of the 2021 F-150 - if rumors are to be believed - will be a 4.8L V8. Though not as large as its 5.0L predecessor, this engine is expected to deliver maximum power: with the standard 395 HP ratio jumping to 420. The current 10-speed automatic transmission is expected to make the transition and this should ensure nimble responses.
Further enticing critics is the promise of a revised frame - with the truck's B-Pillars seeming to be widened and the aluminum panels extended. This lends a more aggressive appearance and suggests that Ford is bolstering the platform's all-terrain capabilities. Expect a more durable design.
No official release date for the 2021 F-150 has been provided - but it should arrive by late summer of next year. Are you are excited as we are? Share your thoughts with us today!
Are you ready for the ultimate half-ton experience, Alberta? Ford is revving up the assembly lines in preparation of the 2021 F-150 - and it promises to redefine the pick-up market.
According to TFL Truck, the new F-150 has been spotted. Keen-eyed critics were able to snag pictures of the prototype as it rolled by - and every image reveals an exciting detail. A short-bed Crew Cab configuration is expected, anchored by 22-inch wheels and all-season tires. A solid rear axle will assure stability, allowing the platform to accommodate heavy loads with ease; and the inclusion of aluminum panels will deliver strength, utilizing military-grade materials to bolster the side panels. A single exhaust outlet was also spied (a dual design, conversely, is expected for the upcoming hybrid model).
Curious about the 2021 F-150's engine? Sadly, even the fastet photographers weren't able to snap a picture of what's beneath the hood - but TFL Truck believes that the current suite should carry-over. A slight increase in horsepower is anticipated (these numbers should be revealed soon), but the same 5.0L V8 will be available.
