Can you buy a 2024 F150 with a V-8?
Yes. The 2024 Ford F-150 can be equipped with a V-8, most commonly the 5.0-liter V8; a high-performance 5.2-liter supercharged V8 powers the F-150 Raptor R; the 7.3-liter V8 is not offered in the 2024 F-150 lineup.
Engine options for the 2024 F-150
The 2024 F-150 lineup centers on two V-8 configurations for buyers who want traditional V-8 power: a mainstream 5.0-liter V8 and, in a high-performance variant, a 5.2-liter supercharged V8. Below are the key details to help you understand where each engine fits in the lineup.
- 5.0-liter V8 (Coyote) — Naturally aspirated, around 400 horsepower and similar torque levels, available across many gasoline F-150 trims with a 10-speed automatic transmission. It remains the standard option for buyers seeking a proven V-8 experience in most daily-use configurations.
- 5.2-liter supercharged V8 — A high-performance option exclusive to the F-150 Raptor R, delivering roughly 700 horsepower and 640+ lb-ft of torque through a tuned setup designed for extreme off-road and road performance.
Note: Ford does not offer a 7.3-liter V8 in the 2024 F-150 lineup. The 7.3L engine is associated with other Ford trucks in different segments, but it is not listed as a factory option for the 2024 F-150.
Raptor R vs. mainstream F-150 trims
The Raptor R represents the peak V-8 performance in the 2024 F-150 family, using the 5.2-liter supercharged V8 from Ford’s GT/ Shelby GT500 heritage. For everyday use and most work- or family-oriented trims, the 5.0-liter V8 remains the primary V-8 option. Availability can vary by market, and some trims or regions may have limited allocations or optional packages that change engine possibilities.
Performance and efficiency considerations
Engine choice in the 2024 F-150 affects power, towing, payload, and fuel economy. The 5.0-liter V8 delivers solid performance with broad availability and typically better real-world efficiency than a larger displacement V-8 under typical driving. The 5.2-liter supercharged V8 in the Raptor R offers near-supercar-like performance, but it comes with significantly higher fuel use and a premium price. For buyers prioritizing fuel economy, the F-150 lineup also includes EcoBoost and hybrid options, which do not use V-8 power.
What to consider when shopping for a V-8 F-150
If your goal is a traditional V-8 engine, start with the 5.0-liter option and decide between XL/XLT/Lariat/King Ranch/Platinum trim levels based on features and price. If you seek the most extreme V-8 performance the truck has offered, the Raptor R is the model to consider. Check with local dealers for current availability, as engine options can vary due to supply and regional market allocations.
Summary
In short, a 2024 F-150 with a V-8 is available: the mainstream choice is the 5.0-liter V8, and the standout high-performance option is the 5.2-liter supercharged V8 found in the F-150 Raptor R. The 7.3-liter V8 is not part of the 2024 F-150 lineup. Prospective buyers should confirm exact availability and pricing with a local dealer, as configurations can change by trim and region.
