FORD F-150 LIMITED
Ford, America's truck
leader, introduces its most advanced and luxurious truck ever - the Ford F-150
Limited.
The new Limited expands
the F-150 model lineup - Ford's toughest, smartest, safest and most capable
F-150 ever - with more standard technology and driver convenience features than
any other light-duty pickup. The Limited, a 2016 model, goes on sale this
winter.
"The F-150 Limited
sets a new bar for what discerning customers should expect in a high-end
truck," said Raj Nair, Ford group vice president, Global Product
Development. "We're adding segment-exclusive technology, and features that
improve productivity, convenience and capability with distinctive style."
There's a Ford F-150
for every truck customer, beginning with work-ready versions that have a
starting MSRP below the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 WT, as well as the popular
mid-range F-150 XLT. But the new F-150 Limited meets the growing, untapped
needs of luxury customers looking for exclusivity, convenience and fine craftsmanship
that's differentiated from other high-series trucks. F-150 Limited surpasses
the well-appointed Lariat, the Western-themed King Ranch and contemporary
Platinum edition models.
The 2016 F-150 Limited
is powered by the 3.5-liter EcoBoost® V6, which allows for towing of up to
10,100 pounds when properly equipped. This advanced powertrain produces 365
horsepower and 420 lb.-ft. of torque - the latter unsurpassed by any truck with
a comparable engine in its class - and has an EPA-estimated fuel economy rating
of 17 mpg city, 24 mpg highway and 20 mpg combined.
The engine is paired
with an electronic six-speed automatic transmission with tow/haul and sport
modes that features SelectShift® with progressive range select.
Four-wheel-drive models are equipped with two-speed automatic four-wheel drive
that automatically shifts between two-wheel and four-wheel drive depending on
driving surface traction conditions.
The interior is further
differentiated from other F-150 models with a laser-engraved VIN plate on the
center console lid including production number. Unique front and rear floor
mats, unique instrument cluster face, genuine fiddleback eucalyptus, and
aluminum interior accents and unique scuff plates with ice blue backlighting
further distinguish the Limited model.
All-new, segment-first
Pro Trailer Backup Assist is available that makes it easier for drivers of all
skill levels to back a trailer up to launch a boat or park in a driveway. The
technology allows customers to steer a trailer instinctively by turning a knob
left or right to indicate direction; the truck controls its steering and limits
vehicle speed.
The 2016 Ford F-150
Limited stands out with exclusive 22-inch polished aluminum wheels and raised
dimensional LIMITED lettering on the hood, unique grille and satin-finished
chrome badge on the tailgate. The chrome front bumper has body-color end caps
while the rear bumper is body color; bright belt moldings visually tie the two
together. The exterior is further accented by satin-chrome door handles and
chrome exhaust tip.
Available colors
include Shadow Black, Magnetic, Blue Jeans and White Platinum Metallic
tri-coat.
