How many miles per gallon does a 2025 f250 get?
There isn’t a single mpg figure for the 2025 F-250—the number depends on engine and setup. In general, expect roughly the mid-teens to low-20s in combined mpg for gasoline engines and somewhat higher on highway for diesel, with exact figures published by the EPA for each configuration.
Beyond the headline numbers, mpg depends on whether the truck is 2WD or 4WD, the axle ratio, bed size, cab configuration, and payload. Here is a detailed look at the typical ranges and what to check when shopping.
Engine options and approximate mpg ranges
These figures reflect common factory configurations and EPA estimates where available. Real-world results will vary with towing, payload, terrain, and driving style.
- 3.5L EcoBoost V6 gasoline — 2WD: roughly 18–19 mpg combined; 4WD: roughly 17–18 mpg combined; highway-heavy driving tends toward the upper end.
- 6.2L V8 gasoline — typically around 15–16 mpg combined (2WD vs 4WD varies little, but payload and towing can reduce it).
- 7.3L V8 gasoline — typically around 14–15 mpg combined.
- 6.7L Power Stroke diesel — usually around 18–19 mpg combined; highway may push into the low 20s, with lower numbers when towing heavy payloads.
Bottom line: The exact mpg will depend on configuration and usage; consult the EPA window sticker for the precise figure on the exact build you’re considering.
EPA ratings by configuration
The EPA publishes mpg estimates for the most common 2025 F-250 setups. The figures here illustrate typical ranges you may see in showrooms and on fueleconomy.gov, but exact values vary by year, trim, and drivetrain.
- 2WD with 3.5L EcoBoost V6 gas — combined about 18–19 mpg; city around 15–16 mpg; highway about 21–23 mpg.
- 4WD with 3.5L EcoBoost V6 gas — combined about 17–18 mpg; city around 14–15 mpg; highway about 20–22 mpg.
- 2WD with 6.2L V8 gas — combined about 15–16 mpg; city around 12–13 mpg; highway around 18–19 mpg.
- 4WD with 6.2L V8 gas — combined about 14–15 mpg; city around 11–12 mpg; highway around 17–18 mpg.
- 2WD with 7.3L V8 gas — combined about 14–15 mpg; city around 11–12 mpg; highway around 17–18 mpg.
- 4WD with 7.3L V8 gas — combined about 13–14 mpg; city around 10–11 mpg; highway around 16–17 mpg.
- 2WD with 6.7L Power Stroke diesel — combined about 18–19 mpg; city around 14–15 mpg; highway around 23–24 mpg.
- 4WD with 6.7L Power Stroke diesel — combined about 17–18 mpg; city around 13–14 mpg; highway around 22–23 mpg.
Note: These numbers are representative ranges for common configurations. The exact EPA rating for a particular truck is shown on fueleconomy.gov and the window sticker, and can differ by year and option package.
Factors that affect mpg
Several variables influence actual fuel economy beyond the engine choice. Payload, towing, aerodynamics, driving conditions, and maintenance all play a role, as do tire pressure and driving style. For heavy-duty pickups, mpg differences between two similarly equipped trucks can be noticeable once they are loaded or used for towing a trailer.
Summary
The 2025 F-250’s fuel economy is not a single figure. Gas options generally fall in the mid-teens to low-20s combined, while diesel typically lands in the high-teens to low-20s combined, with variation based on drivetrain, axle ratio, and payload. For the precise numbers applicable to a specific build, check the EPA estimates for that configuration on fueleconomy.gov or review the vehicle’s window sticker.
