Can a single vehicle lineup truly offer a high-caliber level of versatility across different trim packages? Absolutely, because the Ford F-150 has earned its place as America’s go-to pickup by refusing to be just one truck. Across eight trims–XL, STX, XLT, Lariat, Tremor, King Ranch, Platinum, and Raptor–it stretches from a bare-knuckle work truck to a leather-lined daily driver to a desert-running performance machine. Whatever you tow, haul, or chase down a trail, there’s a configuration built for it. Here’s how each trim sets itself apart, so you can match one to the way you actually drive.

F-150 XL

The XL is the foundation of the lineup, a no-nonsense workhorse for contractors, fleets, and anyone who values capability over comfort. It skips the frills but still arrives with a 12-inch touchscreen and a deep roster of safety tech, proving a base truck no longer means a bare one.

• Engine: 2.7-liter EcoBoost V-6 (325 horsepower / 400 pound-feet of torque)
• Max towing: 8,400 pounds
• Technology: 12-inch center display with SYNC 4

F-150 STX

Sitting a rung above the XL, the STX is for buyers who want presence without a premium price. The available Lobo Package brings a blacked-out, street-tuned attitude with gloss-black wheels, a lowered stance, and aggressive styling. In contrast, the available 4×4 keeps it genuinely capable off pavement.

• Appearance: available F-150 Lobo Package
• Wheels: 18-inch gloss black-painted
• Drivetrain: rear-wheel drive (RWD) with available 4×4 (STX FX4)

F-150 XLT

The XLT is the volume seller and the sweet spot for most buyers, blending real comfort with everyday value. It opens the door to driver tech that the work trims skip, including a new Chrome Appearance Package, an available 360-degree camera, and available BlueCruise hands-free highway driving on select builds.

• New: XLT Chrome Appearance Package
• Driver aid: available BlueCruise hands-free highway driving
• Powertrain: available 3.5-liter PowerBoost Full Hybrid V-6

F-150 Lariat

With the Lariat, the F-150 crosses into luxury without losing its work ethic. Heated and ventilated ActiveX-trimmed seats, a B&O sound system, and an available head-up display make the cabin a place you want to log miles in, while available BlueCruise takes the strain out of the long haul.

• Seats: heated/ventilated ActiveX-trimmed
• Audio: B&O Sound System (8 speakers)
• Engine: available 3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6 (400 horsepower / 500 pound-feet of torque)

F-150 Tremor

The Tremor is the trail specialist for drivers who leave the pavement often but still need to tow and haul during the week. A lifted, off-road-tuned suspension, 33-inch all-terrain tires, and Trail Control with Trail Turn Assist give it real backcountry confidence without the Raptor’s price tag.

• Tires: 33-inch all-terrain
• Hardware: off-road-tuned suspension with Trail Control
• Engine: available 5.0-liter V-8 (400 horsepower / 410 pound-feet of torque)

F-150 King Ranch

The King Ranch pairs maximum capability with Western luxury heritage. Standard upgraded power means towing climbs toward the top of the lineup, while multicontour leather seats, genuine wood trim, and a 14-speaker B&O Unleashed system give the cabin the feel of a high-end lounge that also pulls trailers.

• Towing: up to 13,500 pounds (3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6)
• Seats: multicontour leather with Active Motion
• Audio: B&O Unleashed by Bang & Olufsen (14 speakers)

F-150 Platinum

The Platinum delivers the same top-tier capability as the King Ranch in a sleeker, more contemporary option. The new Satin Appearance Package adds brushed-silver accents inside and out, and an available PowerBoost Full Hybrid powertrain layers in efficiency and Pro Power Onboard for the buyer who wants luxury with a modern edge.

• New: Platinum Satin Appearance Package
• Powertrain: available 3.5-liter PowerBoost Full Hybrid V-6 (430 horsepower / 578 pound-feet of torque)
• Display: available head-up display

F-150 Raptor

At the summit sits the Raptor, a factory-built desert racer engineered for high-speed off-road punishment. Long-travel FOX shocks and a high-output twin-turbo V-6 set the baseline; the Raptor R answers with a supercharged V-8 and the most outrageous output in the entire F-150 family.

• Engine: 3.5-liter High-Output EcoBoost V-6 (450 horsepower / 510 pound-feet of torque)
• Raptor R: 5.2-liter Supercharged V-8 (720 horsepower / 640 pound-feet of torque)
• Suspension: FOX Racing dual-valve shocks

Capability at a Glance

Every trim is towing-ready, but the headline numbers belong to the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6. Properly equipped, it anchors a best-in-class lineup and a six-engine roster that includes the PowerBoost Full Hybrid, letting you dial in the exact balance of muscle and efficiency your work demands.

• Max towing: 13,500 pounds (3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6, properly equipped)
• Max payload: 2,440 pounds
• Engines: six available, gas through full hybrid
