Performance no longer demands a sacrifice of economy, with the 2020 F-150 promising both. Slide behind the wheel of this light-duty commercial truck and discover the best of all words - courtesy of its available 2.7L EcoBoost engine.Demand more from the pick-up segment. The 2020 F-150 allows Okanagan drivers to achieve peak capability, utilizing its 2.7L engine to maximize both fuel distribution and power-band responses. This compacted graphite iron block delivers up to 325 HP (at 5000 RPMs) and 400 lb.-ft of torque (at 2750 RPMs). Roller finger followers enhance sequencing, while the tight 10.3:1 compression ratio translates to increased performance. The addition of an electronic 10-speed automatic transmission further impresses, ensuring custom gear ratios with each payload.
The 2020 F-150 offers more than power, however. It also promises efficiency - with the 2.7L EcoBoost engine achieving 8.9 L/100km in the city. By utilizing both port and direct-injection technologies (along with dual overhead cam timing), this block allows drivers to stay on the road longer.

It’s a series of everyday tasks - light cargo, downtown drop-offs, the constant stop-and-go of Okanagan traffic. This doesn’t mean that drivers should sacrifice performance, however. These commercial ventures still deserve the best… and the 2020 F-150 provides that.Beneath the hood of the new F-150 sits a 3.3L Ti-VCT V6. Though it serves as the base-level engine, its outputs are anything but standard - connecting BC operators to 290 HP (at 6500 RPMs) and 265 lb.-ft of torque (at 4000 RPMs). A multi-core PCM anchors each rev, assuring smooth control; while direct-acting mechanical bucket valves bolster sequencing. An electronic six-speed transmission further enhances capability, delivering seamless gear changes and three selectable drive-modes (Normal, Tow/Haul, and Sport).
Also improving the everyday experience is the inclusion of port-fuel and direct-injection technology - which optimises fuel distribution. This F-150 can achieve up to 12.1 L/100km in the city and 9.3 L/100km on the highway, allowing drivers to focus on cargo instead of finding a station.
The 2021 F-150 proves an ideal for the commercial market. To learn more about this Ford platform - or to schedule a test-drive in one of our available V6 models - contact us today.
