“One key to our success in 2023 and beyond is the diversity of our powertrain offerings. We understand that our customers have unique needs, whether they’re on the job site, the farm, or embarking on a weekend adventure. That’s why we’re proud to say that the Ford F-150® PowerBoost Hybrid has claimed the title of the best-selling full-size full-hybrid pickup in America1 (and ranks second overall among all pickups behind the Ford Maverick),” claimed Robert Kaffl, director, US sales.

The Ford F-150 PowerBoost Hybrid is the best-selling full-size full-hybrid pickup in America1 (and ranks second overall among all pickups behind the Ford Maverick). Moreover, the F-150 Lightning® is the best-selling full-size electric pickup truck in the US1 completing a truck triple crown.

“Looking forward, we are excited to begin production of the new 2024 gas and hybrid F-150 models early in the year. Our unwavering focus on growth across gas, hybrid, and electric models in 2024 reflects our promise to offer a truck for every customer – one that fits seamlessly into their lifestyle,” said Kaffl. Omitted was a tarnished crown. F-series has a claim to be among the most recalled trucks in the US – buyer beware.
