Ford has revealed the horsepower and torque figures for the new 2018 F-150 and Expedition, both of which were revealed earlier this year.
Beginning with the pick-up truck, the 3.3 litre V6 base engine makes 290 hp at 6,500 rpm and 359 Nm at 2,750 rpm. The powerplant, which features dual port and direct injection in place of the previous 3.7 litre’s port injection, is paired with a six-speed automatic.
Moving up the range, the 2.7 litre EcoBoost V6 (also with dual port and direct injection) serves up 325 hp at 5,000 rpm and 542 Nm at 2,750 rpm, the latter representing a 34 Nm increase from before.
The 3.5 litre EcoBoost V6 retains the same outputs as before – 375 hp at 5,000 rpm and 637 Nm at 3,500 rpm in the standard F-150 variants, and 450 hp at 5,000 rpm and 691 Nm at 3,500 rpm on the F-150 Raptor. Meanwhile, the large 5.0 litre V8 also receives dual port and direct injection, producing 395 hp at 5,750 rpm and 542 Nm at 3,850 rpm.
The newly-introduced 3.0 litre Power Stroke turbodiesel V6 is still without official output figures yet, as the engine will only be available in mid-2018. Save for the 3.3 litre V6, all the engines mentioned for the F-150 will be paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission.
As for the Expedition SUV, the 3.5 litre EcoBoost V6 in XL, XLT, and Limited trims has the same output as that on the F-150 (on 87 octane), except for the Platinum trim, where it makes 400 hp at 5,000 rpm and 651 Nm at 3,250 rpm (on 93 octane). The Expedition will also get a 10-speed automatic transmission, like the F-150.
The SUV will also be able to tow up to 4.2 tonnes, which is important as Ford says more than 50% of Expedition customers value towing, and 15% tow weekly or monthly. Ford’s Pro Trailer Backup Assist system will also make connecting a trailer much easier.
Ford is also introducing a new FX4 Off-Road package for the Expedition in XLT trim, which adds on an electronic limited-slip rear differential with 3.73:1 gearing, off-road-tuned dampers, 18-inch alloy wheels with Magnetic Metallic finish shod with 275/65 all-terrain tyres, protective skid plates and manual selection between two- and four-wheel-drive.

Pity Malaysians are stuck with the Ranger. I am sure many would buy this F150 if it comes to Malaysia.
I wish MITI stop controlling what cars come in and demand car companies to price it according to MITI wishes. All to PROTEK China company Proton
Need to convert to RHD but see the total cost as reported by PT: https://paultan.org/2017/03/24/ford-f-150-raptor-uk-gets-rhd-conversion-option/
Sales will be much worse than the Mustang.
F150 only available with petrol engine in US for the time being. Here, most people who buy pickup truck will only get the 2.4~2.5L diesel engine , not 2.8~3.2L because alot of people do not want to pay so much roadtax. Do you really think people can accept a thirsty petrol engine in a pickup truck ? If 3.0L diesel is available, then maybe a yes for such size, but a large petrol engine pickup truck , then forget it.
When P1 has plotektion you bash, when jepunis killer company got one you tak bash pulak.
