We have been looking forward to the arrival of the Ford F-150 Raptor 2021 for months. Now, we are only a few days away from the official launch of the truck and we just saw a very revealing teaser video that just came out yesterday. It’s a pretty safe bet that many people will want to watch the 2021 Ford F-150 Raptor reveal how it’s going, so we’re here to make this process easier.
Blue Oval fans will be able to watch the Ford F-150 Raptor 2021 unveiled live on February 3rd, 2021, at 11 am EST on the Ford YouTube channel. The automaker has not yet provided a link to the video, as it usually does days before its release, but we should have it soon and we will provide it here when we do it, so make sure and bookmark this page.
The revelation of the 2021 Ford F-150 Raptor will certainly be a mandatory TV, given what we already know about the third generation off-roader. Based on the new 14º 2021 Ford F-150 generation, the next generation Raptor will obviously feature many of the same goodies that the new F-150 has to offer, including a heavily revised interior. But perhaps the most exciting thing about the 2021 Raptor is the fact that it will once again be available with a V8, like Ford Authority reported exclusively in 2019.
But the new Raptor won’t just be packing Ford’s 5.0L Coyote V8 or even the 7.3L Godzilla V8. Instead, as we reported last August, the robust off-road pickup will in fact be the recipient of a slightly out of tune version of the Ford 5.2L Predator V8 used in the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500, producing somewhere between 725 and 750 horsepower.
The next generation of the Raptor will also be available with a modified version of Ford’s 3.5L EcoBoost V6, which is the only engine offered in the current generation of the Raptor. However, it is the V8 version that attracts the most attention of enthusiasts, and it sounds great, as we have heard not just one, but two different occasions recently.
In addition to these models with a V8 engine, we have also seen several F-150 Raptor prototypes in recent months, which have revealed the off-road technological capabilities of the next pickup and the new helical spring suspension configuration.
We will be available for the 2021 F-150 Raptor reveal next week, so be sure and sign Ford Authority for the latest Ford F-Series news, Ford F-150 news, F-150 Ford Raptor news and Ford news coverage 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
