Ford F-150 Engine Power

Whether you’re using this truck for work or play, there’s an engine out there for you. In fact, the Ford F-150 comes with a 6-engine lineup to deliver the performance you’re looking for.

How about the 3.3L V6 engine, the entry-level F-150 offering? This comes with 290 horsepower and 265 lb-ft of torque, with the twin independent variable cam timing opening and closing the valves to maximize power output.

The large 5.0L V8 engine mated to the 10-speed automatic transmission offers 395 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque thanks to the Ford port-fuel and direct-injection system, increasing power and efficiency.

Want power and efficiency at their max? You’ll want to look towards the available 3.0L Power Stroke®, which can tow up to 11,500 pounds with its 440 lb-ft of torque. The Ford F-150 offers powerful performance even when you don’t have a trailer hitched–but if you do? This truck is ready.

F-150 Towing Capability

The towing capacity of 11,500 pounds with the Power Stroke engine is impressive. However, if you opt for the 3.5L EcoBoost® twin-turbo V6, you’ll be able to tow up to 13,200 pounds.

Plus, with the smart towing features, you have more control over each towing job. The smarter trailer tow connector is standard, and trailer sway control is offered as a feature of the AdvanceTrac® with Roll Stability Control™ system.

You’ll also be able to add on available features like:

• Pro Trailer Backup Assist™
• 8-inch productivity screen with trailer information
• Factory-installed trailer brake controller
• Blind Spot Information System (BLIS®) with Trailer Coverage

Smart Features Available In the F-150

The Ford F-150 comes with Ford Co-Pilot360™ technology, with features that include:

• Lane-Keeping System.
• Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking.
• Auto High-Beam Headlights. 

Further, when your truck is equipped with FordPass Connect™ with a Wi-Fi hotspot, you can use the app to access features like start, stop, lock, and unlock, even if you’re not around your vehicle. Not sure if you remembered to lock the doors? You never have to guess again, even if you’re mid-grocery run.

The available 8-inch LCD productivity screen provides plenty of useful information right in your line of sight, such as fuel economy or towing data, so you don’t have to take your eyes off the road. All your information in one place makes driving easier.
