The end of the V8 engine is near due to strict environmental regulations and the push for greater energy efficiency in the global market. Automakers are moving to smaller, hybrid and electric engines, following sustainability and fuel economy trends.

America's best-selling pickup truck for 48 years, with a 136-gallon tank, 728 lbs. payload and 9,1 mpg on the highway, the 150 Ford F-2025 Lariat is power and technology like you've never seen before.

When it comes to pickup trucks, few names carry as much weight as the Ford F-150. The best-selling truck in the United States for almost half a century, the F-150 is much more than a vehicle: it's an American icon. And now, with the 2025 Lariat version, the question that remains is: is it still the best pickup truck in the world?

The Ford F-150 carries a legacy that few vehicles can match. Since its debut, it has dominated the market with impressive numbers, selling more than 600 units per year. The 2025 Lariat version arrives with significant changes, bringing a new design, updated technologies and the promise of keeping the V8 engine alive for a few more years.

But what makes this pickup a benchmark? Does it surpass competitors like the Chevrolet Silverado and the RAM 1500?

Design and technology of the new Ford: What has changed?

The 150 Ford F-2025 Lariat arrives in Brazil with a starting price of R$519.990, positioning itself as one of the most luxurious and robust pickup trucks on the market. Despite its high price, it offers a unique combination of power, technology and tradition.

At first glance, the design changes may seem subtle, but every detail makes a difference. The new LED headlights and redesigned grille offer a more modern look, while strategic chrome accents add a touch of elegance. Inside, comfort and technology are the highlights.

The 2025 Lariat comes equipped with a modern multimedia center, advanced connectivity and a fully digital dashboard. In addition, driving assistance functions, such as 360º cameras and automatic parking, make the experience of driving this giant much more practical.

V8 Engine: Is the End Near?

The F-8's V150 engine is almost an entity unto itself. The unmistakable growl of the 5.0 Coyote is something fans love, but the push for more powerful engines more efficient and sustainable is getting bigger and bigger. While Chevrolet is betting on smaller and more economical engines, Ford insists on the V8, at least until more restrictive laws force otherwise.

With 405 horsepower and 56,7 kgfm of torque, the 2025 Lariat delivers plenty of performance. In a test, it reached 0 to 100 km/h in just 7,2 seconds, surpassing the Silverado in power and torque.

Driveability and consumption: A unique experience

Driving the F-150 Lariat is like piloting a luxury cruiser: big, powerful and surprisingly comfortable. The suspension has been tuned to provide a smoother ride, making it a more enjoyable ride than its competitors.

Fuel consumption? It's not the best, but it's expected for a V8: 5,1 km/l in the city and 9,1 km/l on the highway. Even so, the 136-liter tank guarantees an impressive range, ideal for long trips.

Price and competitiveness in Brazil

With a starting price of R$519.990, the F-150 Lariat costs less than the Silverado, but it is still a significant investment. The difference lies in the package: power, technology and the prestige of the Ford brand.

The Lariat stands out for the complete experience it offers. While the Silverado has better cargo capacity and the RAM offers superior trim, the F-150 balances comfort, performance and price, which could be a deciding factor for many buyers.

The 150 F-2025 Lariat is for those looking for power, comfort and tradition in a single package. If you want a pickup truck that combines history, technology and an engine that roars like few others, the 2025 Lariat is the right choice.
