The 2021 Ford F-150 is a petrol pickup with AWD and seating for 6. It belongs to the Gen 14 generation. The 5.0 V8 Lariat is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured 5.0 V8 Lariat version develops 400 hp and 542 Nm (400 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 5.6 seconds, which is decisively quick for everyday road use. Top speed is listed at 185 km/h (115 mph). Its power output is about 8% above the peer average. Its 0-100 km/h time is about 7% quicker than the peer average. The figures establish its straight-line performance on paper, but they do not substitute for measured braking, handling or ride-quality tests.
Fuel economy and range
The listed fuel consumption is 13.8 L/100km. Fuel-tank capacity is 98.0 litres (25.9 US gallons). Recorded CO2 emissions are 315 g/km. Consumption, emissions and range can be measured under different regional procedures, so like-for-like comparisons should use the same market and test cycle.
Dimensions and practicality
Its exterior dimensions are 5,890 mm (231.9 in) in length, 2,032 mm (80.0 in) in width, and 1,918 mm (75.5 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 3,683 mm (145.0 in). The cabin is configured for 6 occupants. Listed curb weight is 2,310 kg (5,093 lb). The recorded braked towing capacity is 5,216 kg (11,499 lb). The measurements are useful for comparison, although seat comfort, access and the shape of the load area still need to be judged in person.
In perspective
Compared with nearby petrol pickup models from the same period, the 2021 Ford F-150 does not separate itself through a single dominant headline figure. That conclusion is drawn from the recorded specifications rather than a road test. A final choice should also account for local pricing, equipment, comfort and a test drive.
