Since 1975, the Ford F-Series has been the truck to beat. Generation after generation, drivers rely on its strength, reliability, and trims that cover every kind of need. Now in its 14th generation, the F-150 still checks every box a pickup buyer could ask for. Find out what we know so far in this 2026 Ford F-150 price and trim comparison.
Key Takeaways:
- The latest Ford F-150 arrives in our showroom in late 2025 or early 2026.
- It carries over mostly unchanged from the 2025 model year.
- Multiple engines remain available across all trims.
Ford didn’t make sweeping changes this year, which makes sense after the 2021 redesign and 2024 refresh, but there’s still plenty worth noting.
In August 2025, eagle-eyed Ford fans spotted a camo F-150 Lightning towing in Arizona. It wore Marsh Gray paint, and 18-inch STX wheels wrapped in Goodyear Wrangler all-terrains. Other sightings showed Tremor-style running boards with a blue grille accent.
While there's nothing official as of yet, Ford could be testing a new off-road package or possibly a full Tremor trim for the Lightning. Nothing official yet, but with the next-gen Lightning delayed until 2028, these smaller updates could fill the gap nicely.
The F-150 has one of the most varied engine lineups in the full-size truck segment. Every option pairs with a 10-speed automatic and comes with rear- or four-wheel drive.
Here’s what’s likely under the hood for 2026:
- 2.7L twin-turbo V6: 325 hp / 400 lb-ft / up to 19 city, 25 highway
- 5.0L V8: 400 hp / 410 lb-ft / around 16 city, 24 highway
- 3.5L twin-turbo V6: 400 hp / 500 lb-ft / up to 25 highway
- 3.5L twin-turbo V6 (Raptor): 450 hp / 510 lb-ft / 14 city, 18 highway
- 3.5L hybrid V6: 430 hp / 570 lb-ft / 22 city, 24 highway
- 5.2L supercharged V8 (Raptor R): 700 hp / 640 lb-ft / 10 city, 15 highway
Towing and payload stay just as strong for the new model year. A SuperCrew with the 3.5L V6 and 6.5-foot bed can tow up to 13,500 pounds, while a Regular Cab with rear-wheel drive and an 8-foot bed can haul up to 2,445 pounds.
Tech and Comfort Inside the 2026 F-150
Step inside, and the F-150’s cabin continues to feel modern and familiar. A 12-inch digital gauge cluster comes standard, showing towing data, off-road readouts, and drive modes. Right next to it, a 12-inch touchscreen runs Ford’s latest software with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto built in.
Every trim level keeps the essentials covered, but higher models layer in features like a wireless charging pad, over-the-air software updates, and an available 14-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system. There’s also a built-in Wi-Fi hotspot and an optional head-up display that projects key information directly onto the windshield.
