The latest generation of Ford F-150 has been subjected for severe diet in order to become a more efficient vehicle. But how did that happened. In case you were wondering how Ford managed to shave that amount of weight, here is the answer.
The F-150 is dressed in an aluminum body which managed to shave off 204 kilograms (450 pounds) compared to the previous generation. But this didn’t stop Ford to seek for other weight-saving solutions.
An additional 113 kilograms (250 lbs) were saved from several components such as bumpers, rear axle, transfer case and steering knuckles. More of the weight was sourced from seats and dashboard. If you don’t believe us check the info graphic made by Ford and attached in the article gallery.
