Ford F-150 2018

Category: Blog views: 610

The F-150 has been the best-selling pickup truck in the United States for more than 40 years, due to its high reliability, practicality and relatively low price.

In comparison with the pre-styling version, the new product received a number of changes in appearance and interior, as well as for the first time in the history of the model, it got a diesel power plant. 

The exterior of the Ford F-150 2018

Ford F-150 has a solid and modern appearance. The front part of the body has got a new head light optics, a modified false radiator grille and a new front bumper, in which an air intake and a pair of rectangular fog lamps are mounted. In the Central part of the radiator grille there is a large Ford logo, and the hood pleases with a relief structure that gives the "muzzle" an even more aggressive and brutal appearance. The profile of the car did not change dramatically – there are massive wheel arches, large side doors, a large area of glazing, a perfectly flat roof line and an impressive loading platform. 

The rear of the pickup got an adjusted tailgate with the Ford logo and the model name stamped in the center, as well as more spectacular marker lights with led filling. 

As before, the car is offered with three cab versions: Regular, SuperCab and SuperCrew. 

The height of the road clearance, depending on the chosen modification, can vary between 203-228 mm, which allows you to feel confident not only on a broken road, but also on a serious off-road.

The interior of the Ford F-150

The interior of the pickup truck boasts well-thought-out ergonomics and high-quality finishing materials, including polished aluminum, wood, genuine leather and high-quality soft plastics.

The driver's seat is represented by a large multifunctional steering wheel, as well as an analog-digital instrument cluster, represented by a pair of dials and an 8-inch monitor of the route computer. The chopped central part of the torpedo received large vertical deflectors of air ducts, an 8” display of the multimedia information center and a concise climate control unit. There is also a whole scattering of additional buttons that are responsible for various car systems. 

The central torpedo connects to a massive central tunnel that visually divides the front of the cabin into two separate cockpits. On it, the manufacturer installed a large gearbox lever, cup holders and a wide armrest.

The impressive size of the front seats provides a comfortable fit. There is also a wide range of adjustments (optional with electric drive), which allows you to sit as comfortably as possible.

The presence of a second or third row of seats determines the option of the selected cabin, while it is worth noting that the maximum level of comfort for rear passengers is offered by the SuperCrew version.

It is not necessary to talk about such a parameter as the volume of the trunk, since its role is performed by a special loading platform, the length of which can vary between 5.5-8 feet (1677-2438 mm). Thus, the car is ideal for both the role of a "workhorse" and a full-fledged car for the whole family. 

Technical characteristics of Ford F-150 2018 

The line of power units, in addition to those installed on the predecessor, has been supplemented with a new gasoline engine and diesel, which is installed on this model for the first time. Customers can choose from a 6 or 10-speed automatic transmission.

As before, the car is offered in rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive versions, where the latter has impressive off-road capabilities. The suspension, brake system and steering were not changed, which means that you can expect a good balance between handling and comfort.

In addition, the car has impressive towing capabilities (the maximum mass of the towed trailer reaches 5.17 tons), making it an ideal choice for transporting boats, scooters, etc.
