With a military-grade aluminum alloy chassis, the 2018 Ford F-150 is a true warrior, lightweight and durable, that beats the competition hands down. Coming to Solution Ford in Châteauguay in the spring of 2018, the Ford F-150 has been the best-selling truck in Canada for 10 years! Besides several different powertrain options, including a diesel engine, it has technological features to please even the most die-hard truck lover.

Available powertrains in the 2018 Ford F-150

With the 2018 Ford F-150, you will have a choice of several engines: an all-new 3.3 L V6 direct injection gas engine, two different EcoBoost® engines (a 3.5 L and a 5.0 L) and a Power Stroke diesel engine, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. The diesel engine offers a towing capacity of 11,400 lb., as well as a load capacity of 2,020 lb. in the truck bed. Despite all that power, the 2018 Ford F-150 Diesel, like its gasoline counterparts, will be hard to equal in terms of frugality, with estimated highway fuel consumption of only 7.8 L per 100 km. Impressive? And how!

The second-generation 3.5 L EcoBoost engine offers the highest rated power in its class at 375 hp and 470 pound-feet of torque. With two injectors per cylinder (one at the air intake port and the other inside the cylinder), the 2018 Ford F-150 also features twin turbos to improve power and fuel consumption. The 2.7 L EcoBoost engine—originally created for the Baja 1000 off-road race—offers 325 hp and a staggering 400 pound-feet of torque, as well as a maximum towing capacity of 8,500 lb. The new 3.3 L V6 engine with twin independent variable cam timing (Ti-VCT), which optimizes power to suit operating conditions, unleashes a respectable 290 hp and 265 pound-feet of torque. The 6-speed transmission offers three driving modes (Normal, Tow-Haul and Sport) to adapt to different road conditions. Finally, the 5.0 L V8 high-pressure direct injection engine offers you 395 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque.

The 2018 Ford F-150: everything you need for towing

The 2018 Ford F-150 is designed to make your everyday tough jobs easier. Its high power, combined with its lightweight body, gives it the best payload capacity in its class at up to 13,200 lb. for all F-150s equipped with a 5 L V8 engine. Whether you’re a novice or an expert when it comes to towing, you’ll appreciate the available Pro Trailer Backup Assist™, an exclusive feature in this vehicle class, which enables you to pivot your trailer to the left or right with the simple turn of a knob. You can also stop worrying about trying to hitch your trailer correctly to your truck: the Ford F-150 is equipped with dynamic hitch assist, which will guide the hitch to the trailer coupling in no time. After that, you’ll be able to verify the status of the trailer (battery, lights, etc.) on an onboard 8-inch productivity touchscreen. For full peace of mind, you can also rely on BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System) with trailer coverage, which will alert you when a vehicle is alongside the trailer, when attached to your truck.

The 2018 Ford F-150 has even more surprises in store for you. Smart, robust and safe, it hasn’t been the best-selling truck for years for nothing.
