The Ford F-150 has been the best-selling vehicle in the United States for decades, but the Super Duty is the truck that builds America.
Popular with everyone from contractors to boat owners, the F-Series Super Duty is the pinnacle of “Built Ford Tough” and that trend is set to continue on September 27th, when the company unveils the redesigned model.
Ford is keeping details under wraps, but the automaker released a short teaser video that gives us a glimpse at the truck’s grille and headlights. Both are all-new as the model features stacked lighting units that are now integrated into a wider grille. That isn’t the only noticeable change as the truck has prominent C-shaped LED daytime running lights, which wrap around the headlights.

Additional details are hard to make out, but we can see pronounced Super Duty branding on the hood. Further below, there’s a modernized grille as well as a large Blue Oval.
We’ll learn full details later this month, but previous spy photos have shown the truck will be fairly evolutionary. However, it will adopt a handful of practical upgrades such as side-mounted steps to improve access to the bed. We can also expect a high-tech interior, which will likely incorporate some features from the newer F-150.
Engine options remain unconfirmed, but previous reports have suggested the truck could be offered with a new 6.8-liter V8 that replaces the current 6.2-liter unit. The latter produces 385 hp (287 kW / 390 PS) and 430 lb-ft (582 Nm) of torque, which is slightly less than the 7.3-liter Godzilla V8 with 430 hp (321 kW / 436 PS) and 475 lb-ft (643 Nm) of torque. Of course, nothing says Super Duty quite like a turbodiesel engine, and the current model has a 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 pumping out 475 hp (354 kW / 482 PS) and 1,050 lb-ft (1,422 Nm) of torque.
