    Ford Details Engine Outputs for 2018 F-150 and Expedition

      We finally get some more info on power for the 2018 F-150 and Expedition

    When Ford unveiled the updated 2018 F-150 back in January, they had announced new and updated engines. But they only spilled the performance figures on one, a 3.3L V6 producing 290 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque. Today, the blue oval reveal performance details on a couple more engines.

    The 2.7L EcoBoost V6 remains at 325 horsepower, but torque is up 25 pound-feet to 400. Part of the increase comes from the 2.7 getting port injection. The 5.0L V8 sees increases of 10 horsepower and 13 pound-feet for power figures of 395 and 400 respectively. It gets port injection and spray-in bore liners that is used in the Mustang GT350. Both engines will come paired with a new 10-speed automatic.

    Ford is still keeping quiet on power figures for the upcoming 3.0L PowerStroke turbodiesel V6. We'll likely learn about that sometime next spring.

    Ford also detailed the power figures for the upcoming 2018 Expedition. As we suspected back in February, the 3.5L EcoBoost V6 will produce 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque. If you go for the top-line Platinum, power increases to 400 and 480 respectively.

    • Actually they are not as heavy as you would think and the Class 8 industry is already moving to electric trailers as the weight of the trailer does not get that much heavier but seriously reduces fuel consumption in traditional diesel trucks and reduces emissions. Fuel consumption in traditional Diesel trucks reduces by 36.3% https://newatlas.com/automotive/range-energy-electrified-trailer/ For consumers we already have options in this market: eStream Concept Travel Trailer | Airstream Electrifying Adventure 7 All Electric Trailers Hitting the Market | RV Obsession I think in time especially using in-wheel hub motors, I can see pretty much all trailers having motors and either using the power from the towing auto battery pack or having a small pack that helps to drive the trailer motors.

The Disappointing Truth About Tesla's 4680 Battery Cell.. | Watch This is a surprise that Honda has released an actual production solid-state battery plant. What Honda’s Solid-State Battery Breakthrough Tells About The Future Of EV Tech The fact that Honda like Hyundai has actual Prototype production assembly lines up and running ahead of Toyota, Mercedes, BMW, VW, etc. would tend to indicate they could deliver solid-state battery tech sooner to EVs than others.
    • That sounds like such an expensive trailer configuration, a trailer with massive batteries and motor(s).. That is no better than an HD with their diesel setups now. While the idea seems good, the price of something like that just sounds like looking for a problem to solve instead of the current setup.  At this point, we'd be talking about a 10,000lb truck and an empty trailer weighing 7,000lbs. That's pushing the better part of 20,000lb before even adding anything to the trailer. A basic single car trailer is already close to 2500lb.
