What’s new for the 2025 Ford F-150?
Ford didn’t make any big changes to this year’s F-150, but that’s because the automaker gave its bestselling truck a mid-cycle makeover just last year! The F-150’s refresh made the hands-free BlueCruise driving system more widely available (optional for the mid-level XLT and standard on the Lariat and up). Ford also did away with the old base V6 engine, replacing it with the 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6, which is both thriftier and more powerful by comparison. The SYNC 4 infotainment system, along with a 12-inch central touchscreen, also became standard equipment for every F-150.
The 2025 Ford F-150 also offers innovative tech gear you won’t find anywhere else. Highlights include:
- Pro Power Onboard: Use your F-150 as a power source! Leave your generator at home and charge your power tools on the way to work via strategically placed power outlets.
- Onboard Scales & Smart Hitch: Let your truck do the math for you! Onboard Scales estimates payloads and Smart Hitch verifies that trailer hitch tongue weight is in spec.
- Pro Trailer Backup Assist: Steering your truck in one direction while steering your trailer in the opposite direction isn’t easy! That’s why Ford came up with this technology, which features a dial on the dash that helps you back your trailer in the right direction.
- Pro Access Tailgate: Not only does this tailgate fold down, but it also swings out, stopping at three set positions. The first position allows you to access cargo with a trailer attached, and two wider positions allow you to remove larger items from the bed.
- Tailgate Work Surface: Need a flat workstation at a remote work site? Simply fold down your tailgate to access built-in rulers, a tablet holder, cupholder, and other small-item storage slots! Clamp pockets and a grained texture help keep blueprints from flapping in the wind. You can even use the Tailgate Work Surface as a bed extender, thanks to its built-in tie-downs.
Which 2025 Ford F-150 trim model is the most comfortable option?
While we’d argue that all eight F-150 trims make a comfortable choice, we suspect you're looking for luxury! If that’s the case, check out the F-150’s most exclusive trim models: the King Ranch and Platinum. These trucks treat you to the finer things, with leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, a premium sound system, and genuine wood cabin trim!
The F-150’s off-road-ready Tremor and Raptor trims are also handsomely equipped with upscale features. Each of these rugged trucks has its own sporty style, but both deliver similar upgrades, including leather seating, heated front seats, and a B&O sound system.
For a great deal on a cushy cabin, you’ll love the F-150 Lariat. Although the Lariat offers its own upscale flourishes, including a leather-wrapped steering wheel and ActiveX upholstery, it comes at a significantly lower price than higher trim models.
How much horsepower does the 2025 Ford F-150’s 5.0-liter V8 engine make?
Although the F-150 offers a very wide range of options, many drivers prefer the feel of a tried-and-true V8 engine. The F-150’s available 5.0-liter V8 is a substantial workhorse that generates 400 horses and 410 pound-feet of torque! Although F-150 trucks with this engine can’t move maximum figures, they’re still pretty impressive in their own right. Depending on body style and equipment, your V8-powered F-150 can tow up to 10,400 pounds or haul up to 2,225 pounds.
To move the F-150’s best-in-class figures, you need the torque-heavy 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6! Like the available V8 engine, the 3.5-liter EcoBoost makes 400 horses. However, it boosts torque output significantly, generating 500 pound-feet of torque. With this turbo V6, you can equip your 2025 Ford F-150 to tow up to 13,500 pounds or haul max payloads of 2,440 pounds!
The 2025 Ford F-150 powertrain options include:
- Turbocharged 2.7L V6 (325 horsepower, 400 lb-ft)
- 5.0L V8 (400 hp, 410 lb-ft)

What are the 2025 Ford F-150 exterior color options?
