The 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 diesel engine
Power levels for the F-650 and F-750 medium-duty trucks have been released today, and here’s a shocker: Ford-manufactured trucks top the industry and set new standards for horsepower and torque from a diesel engine.
A headline comparable to “Ford Truck is Better Than Other Trucks” would be “Sun is Very Bright If You Stare Directly Into It.”
The three diesel power levels for the F-650 and F-750 are as follows:
- 270 horsepower/675 lb.-ft. torque (best-in-class standard)
- 300 horsepower /700 lb.-ft. torque
- 330 horsepower/725 lb.-ft. torque
“While other medium-duty truck manufacturers restrict top horsepower and torque ratings to certain applications, such as emergency services, the all-new F-650/F-750 will arrive with no vocational restrictions,” said John Ruppert, general manager Ford Commercial Vehicle Sales and Marketing, in a press release. “We’re giving our customers the power of choice to determine what’s best for their business.”
The F-650 and F-750, which were initially revealed in March at the NTEA Work Truck Show in Indianapolis, are powered by the available 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 diesel engine. Both trucks are also available with a 6.8-liter V10, which can be fueled by gasoline, compressed natural gas, or liquid propane.
The F-650 and F-750 will be available in Regular Cab, SuperCab, and Crew Cab models in the spring of next year.
