*2021 Ford F-150: Engine & Performance Options *
The Ford F-150 has a few different engine options depending on how much power you want or what trim level you’re after. The standard engine in the F-150 is a 3.3L Ti-VCT V6 engine with 290 horsepower and 265 lb-ft of torque.
Each of the engine options is equipped with a standard electronic 10-speed automatic transmission. This transmission focuses on performance with its wide-span gear spacing. For that extra kick of power, it even has three overdrive gears.
If you’re looking for a bit more power but want to save some gas, the F-150 has an available full hybrid engine. The hybrid engine is a 3.5L Powerboost™ Full Hybrid V6 engine combined with a hybrid electric 10-speed automatic transmission. You’ll get a robust 430 horsepower and 570 lb-ft of torque.
*2021 Ford F-150: Towing Capacity & Capability *
When properly equipped, the Ford F-150 has a maximum towing capacity of 14,000 pounds. You can tow things like boats, horse trailers, work equipment, an RV, and more with this much towing capacity.
To help you hook up those trailers, the F-150 comes standard with a Rear View Camera with Dynamic Hitch Assist. On a screen in your cabin, you’ll be able to see directly behind your F-150, so you can reverse with more confidence. You’ll even get guidelines to help you line up your hitch ball and trailer tongue.
If you’re looking to hit the off-roading trails, the Ford F-150 Raptor trim might be the best trim for you. It comes standard with a Terrain Management System™ with seven terrain modes: Normal, Slippery, Sport, Tow/Haul, Off Road, Baja, and Rock Crawl. You even get new features like Trail Control™ with Trail 1-Pedal Drive for more control as you head over rough terrain.
