2021 Shelby F-150 Debuts With Sporty Looks And Up To 775 HP

If the 2021 Ford F-150 Raptor is too tame for you, you’re in luck as the Shelby F-150 has been introduced with up to 775 hp (578 kW / 786 PS).

Billed as the “most powerful, refined and competent version of the truck in its history,” the 2021 Shelby F-150 is based on the F-150 Lariat 4×4 and features an aggressive exterior with a ram-air hood, a sportier front bumper, and 22-inch alloy wheels wrapped in 35-inch BFG all-terrain tires.

The truck has also been equipped with body-color fender flares, power side steps and a Shelby branded grille. Other highlights include body stripes, deep tinted windows and a tonneau cover.

The modifications don’t end there as the Shelby F-150 has a Borla exhaust and a BDS lift. Buyers will also find rear traction bars and FOX 2.5 shocks with internal bypass technology.

Interior changes are more modest, but the truck has two-tone leather seats with Shelby embroidery. Other highlights include carbon fiber trim, billet pedals, an individually numbered plaque and special floor mats.

Shelby didn’t release detailed performance specifications, but said the base model has 395 hp (295 kW / 400 PS). However, that’s likely a mistake as the F-150’s 5.0-liter V8 produces 400 hp (298 kW / 406 PS).

Regardless, most people will likely order the supercharger package which adds a Whipple supercharger, a billet throttle body, high-flow fuel injectors, and a performance air intake with a carbon fiber tube. Thanks to these modifications, the V8 pumps out 775 hp (578 kW / 786 PS).

Production will be limited to 600 units and a handful will be offered for export. The model is currently available to order, and pricing starts at $107,080 for the base truck and $114,980 for the supercharged variant – both including the cost of the F-150 Lariat.
