Did I mention I love it?

Flera uppgifter på nätet menar att så blir fallet inom ett år, alltså innan slutet av 2016

The engine produces a respectable 254 horsepower and a healthy 443 pound-feet of torque, and is tipped to be mated to the same ten-speed automatic transmission as the new Raptor. That could give the F-150 the kind of fuel economy and muscle it would need to challenge the likes of the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel and the heavier-duty Nissan Titan with the Cumminsengine. With gas prices as low as they are, however, and sales of diesel-powered vehicles lagging, Ford could just be trying to keep up with the competition by offering a light-duty diesel pickup.

With its lightweight aluminum body, the diesel F-150 could even surpass the Duramax diesel-powered Chevy Colorado andGMC Canyon for frugality at the pumps, according to Mark Williams of PickupTrucks.com. He told Autoblog that, ”it makes perfect sense for Ford to do a diesel. It seems like everyone is pushing them to do a Ranger, but if they can get the F-150 to push 30 mpg it can challenge the Ram Ecodiesel and even the Colorado Duramax.”

Those sources also claim that this diesel engine will be mated to the same 10-speed automatic that will be used in the upcoming SVT Raptor F150.

In the Range Rover, the 3.0L diesel offers 254 horsepower and 443lb-ft of torque so without any changes, this engine would make the Ford F150 more powerful than the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel in both categories (Ram has 240hp, 420lb-ft of torque). More importantly, when fitted into the lightweight F150 and paired with the 10-speed automatic transmission, this configuration shouldn’t have any problems surpassing the Ram’s 29mpg highway figure.

——————————-

Ford kan då komma att slå RAM 1500 prisade motor på 3 liter med block i Sintercast CGI

både i bränsleförbrukning, antal hkr och vridmoment.

 

Eftersom denna kandidat också har CGI i blocket från Sintercast så gör det inget vem som tar hem segern………….

It may be hard to believe, but tucked up under the bonnet of this British SUV is the F-150’s future diesel engine. With 254 hp and 443 lb-ft of torque, this 3.0L V-6 outdoes Ram’s EcoDiesel by a good margin. With the addition of Ford’s 10-speed transmission, we’d also expect the pickup to best Range Rover’s 28mpg highway rating.
