The F-150 is the light-duty F-Series, the truck that sits below the F-250 Super Duty and the one that carries the nameplate’s sales volume. This is the fourteenth generation, launched for the 2021 model year and substantially reworked for 2024. That is the face in these photos: split headlamps either side of a full-width lower bar, and the trim name pressed into the bonnet on the upper cars.
Three cabs and three bed lengths make the configuration list long. Regular cab, SuperCab and SuperCrew pair with beds of 5.5, 6.5 or 8.0 feet (1.7, 2.0 or 2.4 m) depending on the cab, so overall length varies far more than a single figure would suggest. The bed itself is 50.6 inches (1,286 mm) wide between the arches on every version. Ford quotes a maximum tow rating of 13,500 lb (6,124 kg) and a maximum payload of 2,440 lb (1,107 kg), both on specific configurations rather than across the range.
Six engines are offered, four of them outside the Raptor. The 2.7-litre EcoBoost V6 is the base unit at 325 hp and 400 lb-ft (542 Nm). The 3.5-litre EcoBoost makes 400 hp and 500 lb-ft (678 Nm) and is now standard on most trims that used to take the 5.0-litre Ti-VCT V8, which itself continues at 400 hp and 410 lb-ft (556 Nm). Above those sits the 3.5-litre PowerBoost, a full hybrid rated at 430 hp and 578 lb-ft (784 Nm) and the only F-150 engine assembled at a single plant. A 10-speed automatic is fitted to all of them.
Inside, a 12-inch central display is fitted to most trims, with a 12-inch digital instrument cluster available. The towing hardware is the part worth naming: Pro Trailer Hitch Assist lines the truck up to a trailer coupler on its own, and Pro Trailer Backup Assist steers a hitched trailer from a rotary controller. Pro Power Onboard turns the truck into a generator, with up to 7.2 kW available.
Ford F-150 trims and prices
Nine trims are listed for 2026. Every price below includes Ford’s $2,795 destination charge, which is how Ford and US dealers quote them, so the numbers are directly comparable with each other but sit about $2,795 above a bare MSRP.
| Trim | Starting price |
|---|---|
| XL | $40,085 |
| STX | $47,650 |
| XLT | $48,490 |
| Lariat | $62,355 |
| Tremor | $67,710 |
| King Ranch | $68,620 |
| Platinum | $71,595 |
| Raptor | $81,800 |
| Raptor R | $113,725 |
Most engines are options across several trims, so the table prices the trim.
Ford F-150 Raptor and Raptor R
The Raptor is the off-road version. It runs a widened body, long-travel suspension and four-wheel drive as standard, with the 3.5-litre High Output EcoBoost V6 making 450 hp and 510 lb-ft (691 Nm). The Raptor R keeps the chassis and swaps the engine for the 5.2-litre supercharged V8 at 720 hp and 640 lb-ft (868 Nm).
Ford also sells a Bronco Raptor, a different vehicle on a different platform.
What happened to the Ford F-150 Lightning
The battery-electric F-150 Lightning entered production in 2022 and was discontinued after the 2025 model year. Ford stopped the line in October 2025 following a fire at aluminium supplier Novelis and never restarted it, then confirmed the model was finished. Ford has said a range-extended electric F-150 will follow, but no price or on-sale date has been published, so it is not part of the range described above.
