Really impressive.
With this antecedents, Ford presented this Thursday in the United States the new generation of the F-150.
As the United States returns to work (referring to the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic), Ford unveils the all-new F-150, a new generation in the history of the F Series, which is America’s favorite choice to do its job. for 43 consecutive years he said Craig Schmatz, Ford’s chief engineer, quoted by Autoblog.
The all-new F-150 was designed and built to be the toughest and most productive F-150 in history, with the goal of becoming the most powerful full-size pickup on the market, he added.
The highlights of the 2021 generation of the F-150 can be summarized as follows:
Design: the new generation replaces the one sold in Argentina. It retains the same aluminum body chassis chassis platform, but with a new design. In the United States, there will be eleven horn design options, with changes in optics, grille, and bumpers. The same goes for the tire designs and interior trim.
Mechanics– Engines were overhauled for greater power and fuel efficiency. Options gasoline, turbonafteras and turbodiesel between 2.7 and 5.0 liters of displacement are maintained. The consumption, power and torque values were not reported, pending the approval of the North American Government.
Versin hbrida– For the first time, there is a Hybrid F Series. Ford calls it the F-150 3.5 PowerBoost FullHybrid V6. It combines a 3.5-bit turbo V6 gasoline engine with an electric one, powered by a 1.5 kWh lithium-ion battery (little more than a Toyota Prius, which has 1.3 kWh).
Conduccin semi-autnoma: for the first time, the hands free driving system is offered, a semi-automatic function that allows you to release your hands from the steering wheel on motorways, while the vehicle maintains speed, distance and direction on the lane, by means of driving aid sensors and radars .
Functionality: Debuts a series of design solutions designed for everyday use. For example, the tailgate becomes a workbench, with tool sockets. In addition, the gear lever next to the driver is now retractable: this makes it possible to convert the large central armrest into the desk of a rolling office.
The arrival of the new generation of F-150 to Argentina was confirmed by Ford, but the launch date will depend on the speed with which the stock of units of the current generation is liquidated, which was released for sale earlier this year. ao.
