The 2018 Ford F-150’s first 3.0-liter Power Stroke diesel engine boasts EPA-estimated ratings of 30 mpg highway, 22 mpg city and 25 mpg combined. These are the highest EPA-estimated ratings available in a full-size pickup truck.
These benchmark figures are the result of more than a decade of work developing a lightweight high-strength, military-grade, aluminum-alloy body, a 10-speed SelectShift transmission, and engine construction of aluminum and compacted graphite iron to deliver reduced weight.
In addition, the F-150 Power Stroke boasts 250 hp and a stout 440 lb.-ft. of torque. It provides towing of 11,400 lbs. for pulling. The new engine also provides 2,020 lbs. of payload for XL and XLT fleet applications, and 1,940 lbs. for retail applications.
The 2018 Ford F-150 with all-new 3.0-liter Power Stroke diesel engine will begin shipping to dealers in May.
