After its long-awaited release, the 2023 Ford F-150 is finally here, and its impressive drivers with many exciting features. Along with off-road versatility and stunning performance, this edition delivers the advanced tech features that Ford is known for, as well as a comfortable cabin that seats up to six. With so much to offer, the following features are just a snapshot of everything this truck has going for it.
1. A Powerful Hybrid Engine
Although this edition offers many impressive engines to choose from, including a 700-horsepower 5.2-liter V8, the full hybrid V6 engine is the most unique. Not only does this 3.5-liter engine offer an eco-friendly option, but it does so without sacrificing its muscle, as its capable of towing 12,700 pounds while generating 430 horses.
2. Multi-Function Seating
The F-150’s seats offer a wide range of available fabrics and features to ensure you’re comfortable at all times. This includes heating and ventilation functions, leather trim, driver memory, and lumbar support. There’s also Active Motion, which is a rolling massage system, as well as seven air chambers in the front seats that can be customized for additional comfort.
3. An Autopilot for Cruising
Using a camera that can detect your eye movements, as well as a wide array of driver-assist features like Lane-Centering and Traffic Sign Recognition, the BlueCruise feature can drive the truck for you on certain stretches of highways while making sure that you’re still paying attention to the road at all times.
4. On-the-Go Infotainment
The truck’s infotainment system, SYNC 4, offers voice recognition alongside an available full-color 12-inch touchscreen display. You can use it to make and take phone calls, ask for navigation instructions, or listen to satellite radio channels, among other things. Best of all, it can connect to Android and iPhone devices, allowing you to access music playlists and select apps from your phone while driving.
5. Full 360-Degree Views
For a complete view of everything around your vehicle, there’s the 360-degree camera system, which automatically activates when you shift the vehicle into reverse. You can also manually turn it on at any time, and when hitching a trailer to the truck, alignment gridlines appear on screen to help you reverse at the perfect angle.
6. The Lane-Keeping System
Another clear standout feature is Lane-Keeping System, which can detect when you’re unintentionally drifting into other lanes. This system will first notify you of this before taking over steering to correct it. If you still continue to leave the center of your lane, this feature will then remind you to pull over so you can take a break from driving until you’re fully rested.
The 2023 F-150 surpasses expectations thanks to its many performance options, sophisticated technology, and a cabin you’ll love spending time in. To see this stylish truck up close, contact us at Lufkin Ford today, and we’ll be happy to schedule a test drive at your convenience.
