  • Ford has announced the power, torque, payload, and towing specs for the 2021 F-150 pickup.

  • The new PowerBoost hybrid powertrain makes the most power at 430 horses and 570 lb-ft of torque, and the 3.5-liter EcoBoost can tow the most at 14,000 pounds.

  • The 2021 Ford F-150 will arrive in dealers this fall along with the new PowerBoost hybrid model.

The 2021 Ford F-150 has six powertrain options. Five have carried over from the previous generation, plus there's a new twin-turbo 3.5-liter V-6 hybrid dubbed PowerBoost. That new hybrid is the most powerful option, producing 430 horsepower, while the 5.0-liter V-8 and 3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6 see slight increases in power and torque compared to the 2020 model year, and there will also be an even more powerful electric F-150 coming in the next two years.
