Ford's upcoming mid-cycle refresh for the 2027 F-150 appears to bring significant changes, according to a leaked order guide that surfaced online.
The guide, posted on F150gen14.
com and dated July 30, lists the 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 under "Deleted" in its "Major Product Changes" section.
Larger Base Engine
Instead of the 2.7L, the base F-150 is expected to get the same 3.0-liter engine used in the Ranger Raptor.
It's unclear if it will produce the same 405 hp (302 kW) and 430 lb-ft (583 Nm) as in that application.
If it does, it would be significantly more powerful than the outgoing 2.7L, which made 325 hp (242 kW) and 400 lb-ft (542 Nm).
The larger engine is slated to be standard in many XL, STX, XLT, and lower-level Lariat configurations.
The 5.0-liter V8 may become optional on King Ranch and Platinum models.
Entry-Level Tremor and Raptor
The entry-level Tremor 400A could see a price reduction.
It retains key off-road features like 33-inch all-terrain tires, skid plates, a locking rear differential, extra ride height, Trail Control, and Rock Crawl mode.
However, it loses power seats, heated front seats, dual-zone climate control, B&O audio, and other amenities, replacing them with cloth upholstery and a column shifter.
Ford appears to apply a similar strategy to the Raptor.
A new 800A package would keep the 450-hp (336-kW) high-output 3.5-liter EcoBoost, Fox Live Valve suspension, 35-inch tires, and heated and ventilated leather-trimmed front seats.
It would drop the head-up display, 14-speaker B&O Unleashed audio, heated rear seats, memory features, Rigid fog lamps, and the larger Pro Power Onboard system.
Official pricing hasn't been announced, but the guide lists factory discount packages for certain builds, including up to $3,000 on an STX 200A.
The new engine is the headline, but Ford's real play may be to make the window sticker look friendlier while quietly trimming features.
