The long awaited 2021 Ford F-150 is finally on the horizon! Newly redesigned inside and out, the upcoming F-150 has it all. More capable, more functional, and smarter than ever before. Our team here at Keystone Ford in Chambersburg, PA, can’t wait one minute longer to introduce you to the one…the only…the epic…2021 Ford F-150!
Design
Newly redesigned for 2021, the new F-150 will now have an even more aggressive and bold exterior look than before with its updated headlamp design, wrap-around bumpers, higher front fenders, and bigger tires. Beyond its impressive look, the all-new F-150 is also more aerodynamic than previous configurations. The new cab and tailgate geometry combined with the new active grille shutters, which automatically deploy an active air dam, work together to reduce the overall drag of the vehicle and in turn improve the truck’s fuel efficiency. Combine those benefits with its fully boxed, high-strength steel frame and high-strength, military-grade, aluminum alloy body, you will be unstoppable on the open road or an off-road trail.
The exterior of the F-150 is not the only part of the vehicle that received an upgrade. You can expect to be pleasantly surprised with the look, feel, and functionality of the F-150’s new interior. The new, more stain-resistant two-tone seats, standard dual glove box, enhanced materials, and available lockable rear seat storage vault are just some of the incredible advancements inside the F-150 that make it more sought after than ever. Have you ever wished that you could take a short, relaxed breather in between jobs to recenter your focus or rest your eyes? The new Max Recline Seats were created just for that! These innovative front seats fold flat to nearly 180 degrees. Due to the advanced design of these class-exclusive available seats, not only does the back of the seat recline, but the bottom cushion rises to meet the back cushion and the upper back support rotates forward to create a maximum amount of comfort.
Infotainment
Ford held nothing back when it created the 2021 F-150 Infotainment System. The all-new available 12-inch center screen makes it possible for drivers to split the screen and control several functions instantaneously like music or navigation. This updated screen also puts the digital owner’s manual and how-to videos available with the touch of a button to help walk you through any new feature that you may have yet to fully understand.
The new F-150 is the first full-sized pickup truck in North America to come standard with over-the-air updates, keeping the truck updated with all future technological advancements.
The brand-new SYNC 4 Infotainment System comes standard on all new F-150 pickups. Because it now has twice the computing power than the previous generation SYNC system, the new SYNC 4 can now wirelessly connect smartphones without the USB cord for seamless Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ connectivity and usage.
Speaking of music, the available 18-speaker B&O Unleashed Sound System will make your listening experience second to none. With speakers in the headliner and front headrests, among other precisely designed locations, prepare yourself to be enveloped into a premium sound experience like never before.
Targeted to deliver the most torque and horsepower of any light-duty full-size pickup on the market, the all-new 3.5-liter PowerBoost full Hybrid V6 powertrain was built to get every job done confidently and efficiently. Available on every model, this revolutionary new engine is projected to get an EPA-estimated range of approximately 700 miles on a single tank of gas. However, don’t let those impressive numbers fool you, this engine doesn’t run short on power simply because it is efficient. You will be able to tow at least 12,000 lbs. and will have the highest target payload capacity in its class. This is only one of several engine options that will be available for the new F-150, no matter what you are looking for, Ford made an option for you.
Functionality / Convenience
Adding more convenience features than ever before, Ford was able to make the new F-150 more functional in every circumstance compared to its predecessors. The new built-in tailgate clamp pockets, available Pro Power Onboard™, and available Tailgate Work Surface are just a few examples of the enhancements that will make every job more streamlined. Utilize the clamp pockets and available Tailgate Work Surface’s integrated rulers, mobile device holder, cup holder and pencil holder, to elevate your work surface functionality for every job. With the available Pro Power Onboard™ you will have enough energy to power 28 average refrigerators, in other words, an entire job site worth of tools or a whole campsite of equipment for all your personal and professional needs. You can access this astounding power source through the in-cabin outlets or up to the four available cargo bed-mounted 120-volt and 240-volt outlets. Not only will the power get you through each jobsite’s demands, it also has the ability to re-charge all your tool batteries on-the-road in between job sites.
Safety and Driver-Assist Tech
Not only did Ford go above and beyond to create a better driving and working environment, they pulled out all the stops to bring the vehicle’s safety and driver assist technologies to a whole new level. The new F-150 now comes standard with more safety features including Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking and Pedestrian Detection, Auto High-Beam Headlamps, and Rear View Camera with Dynamic Hitch Assist. And Ford didn’t stop there. They also added 10 new driver-assist features, including Active Drive Assist. With this ground-breaking technology, expected to arrive in the third quarter of 2021, the driver will be able to drive hands-free on more than 100,000 miles of divided highways in all 50 states and Canada. No need to wait until the third quarter to purchase your new F-150. Just grab your Active Drive Assist prep kit when you get your new truck, and you’ll be ready to go hands-free as soon as the software is released.
