2015 Ford F-150 Fuel Economy Released

Ford has finally dropped EPA-estimated fuel economy figures for its new 2015 F-150. 

The most fuel efficient engine in the new truck is the 2.7-liter EcoBoost, rated at 19 mpg city, 26 on the highway and 22 mpg combined when combined with two-wheel drive. That new 2.7-liter turbocharged EcoBoost V6 makes 325 hp and 375 lb-ft of torque, allowing to tow up to 8,500 pounds. Combine this new engine with four-wheel drive, and fuel numbers dip to 18 in the city, 23 mpg on the highway and average 20 mpg.

Next up is the naturally aspirated 3.5-liter V6 that is rated at 18 mpg in the city, 25 on the highway and 20 mpg combined. It is a new base engine for the truck, and produces 282 hp and 253 lb-ft of torque. Adding four-wheel drive drops the city and highway ratings by one each.

Then we have the 385-hp 5.0-liter V8, rated at 15 mpg city, 22 on the highway and 18 mpg combined. Add four-wheel drive and the highway number drops by one.

Finally, the F-150’s most powerful engine, 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 is rated at 17 mpg city, 24 on the highway and 20 combined. With four-wheel drive, the 3.5-liter loses one mpg on the highway.

Ford is already touting its truck as the “most efficient gasoline-powered full-size pickup,” but it can’t claim the overall title. That still belongs to the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel, which manages 28 mpg on the highway and a combined rating of 23 mpg.
