The New Ford F-150 Raptor Will Be A 444bhp, 510lb ft Slice Of 'Murica
A loud-mouthed Ford dealer has exposed some performance figures for the latest generation of the Blue Oval’s best-selling truck, and they make for some scrumptious reading. The performance variant of the F-150 truck is to be released next year, using the basic 3.5-litre EcoBoost V6 block that will feature in a modified sense in the new Ford GT.
According to the figures - published in the form of a screen grab of a spec list on an owner’s forum - the Raptor will pump out 444bhp and 510lb ft of torque, a significant jump over the standard truck’s 375bhp and 470lb ft figures. This will give the Raptor a towing capacity of around 3600kg. Prices meanwhile start at around $50,000.
Ford is yet to announce the exact date for when the order books open to customers, but it’s fairly safe to say that the Raptor will be a massive hit in theUnited States.

Not a fan of the new one both design and engine wise. I see why people like them, but the old one with the V8 is amazing
they 6.2 sounds SO GOOD. especially with rbp exhaust
Dang, now raptors are going to start running people over too.
MOAR POWAR!!
I can has clutch pedal this time?!
Nice velociraptor
i dont expect this thing to sell well. I mean, who is interested in a pick up as extreme as this without a V8
Wait, didn’t the old one have around 600bhp from a huge V8??
“The 6.2 L (379 CID) engine has 411 horsepower (306 kW) and 434 ft·lbf (588 N·m) of torque.”

The VelociRaptor from Hennessey has 600 HP :)
The only good 6 cylinder cars are Nissans and Toyotas.
