5 Things We Love About the 2021 F-150 PowerBoost
The 2021 F-150 PowerBoost has quite a lot going for it. Here’s what we love about the nameplate’s first-ever hybrid model.
Purists are not big proponents of change, but that didn’t deter the Blue Oval from introducing a revolutionary version of its most popular nameplate. For the first time since its introduction back in 1941, the F-150’s 2021 model range gets a hybrid variant. The all-new F-150 hybrid is already receiving glowing reviews, and here are 5 PowerBoost-exclusive features that worthy of our commendations.
Acceleration
The most impressive characteristic of F-150 PowerBoost’s acceleration is not its urgency but its subtlety. The 35 kW electric motor is located between the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 and its 10-speed modular hybrid transmission. The hybrid powertrain is almost silent at low speeds, and with its abundant torque, the 2021 F-150 PowerBoost Lariat can sprint from 0 to 60 mph in just 5.3 seconds.
