Key Takeaways
- After the 2024 F-150’s mid-cycle refresh, there aren’t any major updates to the 2025 F-150.
- Exclusive tech features, like Pro Power Onboard and Pro Trailer Backup Assist, are available for either truck.
- Both trucks deliver best-in-class performance and a host of powerful engine options!
- The new F-150 (starting at $38,810) is only slightly more expensive than the outgoing 2024 truck (from $37,065).
Everyday Comfort
After a big refresh for the 2024 model year, not much has changed for the 2025 Ford F-150. Both trucks treat you to the latest F-150 exterior styling, wheel designs, and lighting elements — all of which look rugged as ever but somehow more refined than before. The off-road-ready Tremor trim model gets its own unique front bumper and grille, and drivers can add to this off-road-ready F-150 with a newly available front-mounted winch and light accessory bar.
As part of the 2024 Ford F-150’s mid-cycle refresh, this truck introduced some big changes (all of which carry over to the 2025 model year). For instance, the newly available Pro Access Tailgate opens in a few different ways, including from a side-mounted hinge, helping you access cargo with a trailer attached. In the mood for hands-free cruising? Once only available for the high-end Platinum, Ford’s hands-free BlueCruise driving technology is now optional for the XLT and standard on the Lariat and up (though a subscription is required for activation). There are also a few new tech features for 2024 — a head-up display and stolen-vehicle locator.
Exclusive Tech & Convenience Features
The 2024 and 2025 Ford F-150 trucks offer quite a few tech features that aren’t available for any other truck in the segment! For instance, the available Pro Trailer Backup Assist helps you avoid jackknifing your trailer in the wrong direction. And the Pro Power Onboard generator produces the electricity you need to recharge work or recreational gadgets, from power tools to e-bikes. With the Console Work Surface, you can transform your F-150’s center console into a comfy place to set your laptop (or your lunch).
Power & Performance Updates
Although there haven’t been any changes to the 2025 Ford F-150’s performance options, there was one notable change to the 2024 lineup. First of all, the old 3.3-liter V6 has been discontinued, making the thriftier (and more powerful) 2.7-liter turbo V6 the new base engine. Earning up to 21 mpg combined (19 city/25 highway), this engine is almost as efficient as the F-150’s available hybrid PowerBoost engine, which achieves 23 mpg combined (22 city/24 highway).
As usual for the F-150, these model years offer outsized power with their available 5.0-liter Coyote V8 and 3.5-liter turbo V6 engines. The rugged Raptor and Raptor R are even more powerful, delivering high-speed off-road performance with their exclusive powertrains — especially the Raptor R’s 700-horsepower supercharged V8!
