2024 Ford F-150 Towing Capacity Chart

Harness best-in-class towing power with the 2024 Ford F-150. If you’re looking to tow up to 13,500 pounds, get your truck equipped with the 3.5L EcoBoost® V6 engine, a SuperCrew® cab with a 6.5-foot box, and 4x4 drivetrain plus the optional Tow/Haul Package and Max. Tow Axle upgrade.

Other F-150 engine options provide top-notch towing capacity as well. If you like the traditional muscle of a naturally aspirated V8, the 5.0L V8 engine can pull up to 12,900 pounds. For a more fuel-efficient engine choice, go with the 3.5L PowerBoost™ full hybrid V6 and still tow up to 11,200 pounds. The standard 2.7L EcoBoost engine can tow up to 8,400 pounds.

The elite off-road trim in the F-150 lineup — the F-150 Raptor® — offers two engine options that blend stunning power with potent towing ability. Go with the standard high-output 3.5L EcoBoost engine for 450 horsepower and an 8,200-pound towing capacity. Or, add the Raptor R™ Equipment Group with its 5.2L supercharged V8 engine and put its 750 horsepower and 640 pound-feet of torque to work and tow up to 8,700 pounds. Tow your trailer to the campsite in the morning and seek out adventure the rest of the day.

2022 Ford F-150 What Can Affect My Towing Capacity?

Engine horsepower and torque

Your engine choice helps determine how much weight you can pull with your truck.

Drivetrain

Influence the amount of weight you can tow with your choice of either rear-wheel drive (4x2) or four-wheel drive (4x4). While 4x4 drivetrains give you considerably better traction, they typically add to the overall weight of your truck and may slightly lower your towing capacity.

Cab/bed configuration

The cab and bed configuration you choose can help determine your overall towing capacity.

Axle ratio

Higher gear ratio numbers help increase your towing capacity.

Available towing packages

Unlock maximum towing capabilities by adding available towing or payload packages, which optimize a wide range of components for maximum performance.

Payload

The amount of weight you add to your truck — including cargo and passengers — reduces your overall towing capacity.

2022 Ford F-150 Payload Capacity
