F-150 Leads in V6 Sales for Light-Duty Pickup Trucks

FLUSHING, Mich - Ford Motor Company's F-150 Leads in V6 Sales for Light-Duty Pickup Trucks. Can you guess what portion of Ford F-150 customers who purchased a truck between the months of January and February chose the V6 engine? A whopping 57 percent! Ford has no doubt that this trend will continue for throughout the rest of the year leading to the release of the 2015 F-150. Since 2010, there has been a 600 percent increase in retail registrations of light duty pickups with V6 engines and the F-150 is responsible for 91 percent of that growth. The Ford F-150 V6 sales were also accountable for 78 percent of all light-duty truck V6 sales in 2013. 

Three different V6 engine options will be offered in the 2015 Ford F-150, which is set to go on sale later this year. The all-new F-150 will offer a new 2.7-liter EcoBoost engine, along with the 3.7-liter Ti-VCT V6 and 3.5-liter EcoBoost engines. Ford Motor Company expects the number of sales to hold, or go even higher throughout the rest of the year. The latest 2.7-liter EcoBoost will be produced at Ford's Lima, Ohio plant; the same location where the 3.7-liter Ti-VCT V6 and 3.5-liter EcoBoost engines are produced.

Ford Launches Fuel Saving Police Interceptor

FLUSHING, Mich.- While Ford Motor Company's Police Interceptor has already received praise from law enforcement officials, police departments are going to love it even more when it starts saving them money! How is it going to do that? Ford has launched a fuel saving Police Interceptor that is powered by a 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine!

Not only is Ford helping police departments save on fuel costs with the new non-pursuit special service police sedan, but the sedan will also be the first law enforcement vehicle to achieve 30 mpg of better! Ford's new fuel saving Police Interceptor will be powered by a 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine that produces 240 horsepower and is expected to get 32 mpg on the highway and 22 mpg in the city. Compared to the standard Crown Victoria which only achieves 14 mpg in the city and 21 mpg on the highway, upgrading to the new special service sedan could save the department $5,000 over the course of 3 years with gasoline priced at $3.65 and the officer driving 30,000 miles per year!

What about the power that officers need while out on the job? Officers that need a pursuit-rated vehicle will rely on the other more powerful Fords. But those who do not, like detectives, administrators, campus police, and some law enforcement agencies, will be able to replace their older V8-equipped vehicles with a more efficient model.

Ford Motor Company's Police Interceptor sedans are now available with four powertrain options to meet each officer's specific needs: the 3.5-liter V-6 with front-wheel drive, 3.7-liter V-6 with all-wheel drive, the new 2.0-liter V-6 and the 3.5-liter V-6 EcoBoost engine with all-wheel drive.
