2026 Ford F-150
Car and Driver expects only minor changes to the F-150 for 2026. MSRP runs $40,085-$75,700. MotorTrend says the F-150, most recently redesigned for 2021 and facelifted for 2024, is expected to carry over into 2026 mostly unchanged with packaging updates and maybe a special edition trim or two, ahead of a next-generation model expected for 2027 or 2028; the all-electric F-150 Lightning gets a new entry-level STX trim with off-road styling flare.

Record summary
What to know first
Six available engines span 325 to 720 horsepower across the nine-trim range; towing, payload and available drivetrain all shift with the selected powertrain, not just the trim name. Raptor R tops the range with a 720-hp supercharged 5.2L V8 and is the only F-150 that requires premium fuel.
The Raptor R (720-hp supercharged 5.2L V8, $114,220 MSRP) is sold, priced and EPA-listed as its own configuration, even though Ford's trim selector shows it as a supercharged-V8 equipment group added to the Raptor, so it is listed here as a trim. The Raptor remains the top trim with the 450-hp High Output EcoBoost among regular-fuel configurations; the Raptor R's output, price and premium-fuel requirement do not apply to the standard Raptor.
