2018 Ford F-150 Power Stroke Diesel Returns 30 MPG Highway

Ford says EPA fuel-economy testing confirms its expectation that the F-150 fullsize pickup powered by an all-new turbodiesel V-6 achieves a best-in-class 30 mpg (7.8 L/100 km).

In addition to its leading fuel economy ratings, the all-new F-150 Power Stroke boasts best-in-class* diesel power - 250 horsepower and a stout 440 lb. -ft. of torque - greater torque than a 2019 Ram 1500 Hemi V8. (597 Nm) of torque, enabling up to 11,400 lbs.

The engine is not the only one responsible for the fuel economy ratings, with the F-150 3.0-liter Power Stroke diesel also benefitting from a lightweight aluminum-alloy body and a 10-speed SelectShift automatic transmission. That is 10 horses and 20 lb-ft more than the Ram's Ecodiesel is able to muster. Its next-closest rival is the 2018 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel, which is rated by the EPA at 20/27/23 mpg with rear-wheel drive.
