2021 Ford F-150 | All-New + Hybrid + Self-Driving!

The all-new F-150 arrives this fall and here's your first look at Ford's most important model. Though it doesn't look radically different, Ford says every body panel has been redesigned, there's a wider stance and 11 – yes, 11 – different grille options. And to save fuel through improved aerodynamics, there are active grille shutters and an automatic deploying air dam. But the sexy news surrounds the new optional, range-topping powertrain – a twin-turbo 3.5-liter V6 boosted by a 47-horsepower electric motor making it a full hybrid. Integrated into the 10-speed automatic transmission, Ford is targeting a 700 mile driving range and 12,000 pounds max towing for its new hybrid. The battery is packaged underneath the truck so passenger and cargo volume is unencumbered. Ford refers to it as PowerBoost and it's available on every trim level from XL to Limited. And the electrifying news doesn't stop there – a new feature Ford calls Pro Power Onboard turns gas and hybrid F-150s into a portable generator capable of powering 28 refrigerators or running an entire jobsite worth of tools. We've all been there – the truck as an office. Ford's solution? The optional interior work surface creates an ideal space for signing documents or eating takeout. And if your lunch break isn't over yet, the max-reclined seats become a sweet place to grab a couple of Z's. The tailgate wars continue with Ford's Tailgate Work Surface which includes integrated rulers, a mobile device holder and more. On the tech side, the all-new F-150 is North America's first full-size pickup with standard over-the-air updates. These updates are bumper-to-bumper and can include all-new functions and additional features throughout the life of the truck. And then there's SYNC 4 with twice the computing power of the previous-gen system and that does include wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. And some real semi-autonomous driving is coming, too. Active Drive Assist is a hands-free experience that works on divided highways much like Caddy's Super Cruise. It'll be late availability but customers can add it later via an over-the-air update and pay for it then. With 3 V6s, a V8, a diesel and a hybrid, 3 cab styles and 3 bed lengths, Ford's F-150 looks to be a groundbreaker. Look for it this fall with specs and pricing to be released closer to launch.
