With the newly upgraded Power Stroke® diesel engine, drivers will be able to enjoy best-in-class performance with classic Super Duty capability. Explore the diesel engine output on the 2018 Ford Super Duty below.
Diesel Engine Output on the 2018 Ford Super Duty
The 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel V-8 of the 2017 Ford Super Duty (shown) returns with new enhancements for 2018.
The enhanced 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel V-8 on the 2018 Ford Super Duty features redesigned cylinder heads that can handle even better under higher loads. This allows the fuel and turbocharging calibrations to be tweaked to deliver best-in-class power, torque, payload and conventional and gooseneck towing.
The 6.7-liter V-8 Power Stroke diesel is rated for 450 horsepower and 935 pound-feet of torque. Towing on select models tops out at 34,000 pounds for gooseneck towing and 21,000 pounds with a conventional hitch. With 7,630 pounds of payload capacity, the Super Duty offers versatile hauling options.
