About the 2020 Ford F-150

13th-generation F-150 (2015-2020), final model year before the 2021 redesign; second-generation Raptor (2017-2020), also in its final year.

Ford positions the F-150 as a full-size pickup built to handle work, towing, hauling, family travel, and recreation. Its core strengths are a fully boxed steel frame, aluminum body, broad cab and bed configurations, and powertrains ranging from work-focused V6 engines to high-output turbo power. The range spans basic commercial-duty trucks, leather-lined premium models, and the Raptor’s specialized high-speed off-road capability.

The 2020 lineup runs from the work-focused XL and everyday XLT to several distinct luxury trims. King Ranch emphasizes wood and leather, Platinum has massaging front seats, and Limited pairs a panoramic roof with a 450-hp twin-turbo V6. Raptor is the off-road performance model, with long-travel suspension, adaptive dampers, underbody protection, and terrain-specific driving modes.

Frequently asked questions

Was the 2020 Ford F-150 redesigned?

No. The 2020 F-150 is the final model year of the generation introduced for 2015; the fully redesigned truck arrived for 2021.

What is the biggest difference between the 2020 and 2019 Ford F-150?

The biggest difference is more standard driver assistance on selected upper trims. Lariat received the broadest added suite, while Limited, King Ranch, Platinum, and Raptor gained specific standard safety features.

Did the 2020 Ford F-150 get a new engine or transmission?

No. The 2020 F-150 had no lineup-wide engine or transmission change, so its main updates were to standard driver-assistance equipment rather than the mechanical package.

What changed on the 2020 Ford F-150 Raptor?

The 2020 Raptor gained automatic high beams as standard equipment. Its core setup carried over, including the 450-hp twin-turbo V6, 10-speed automatic transmission, long-travel suspension, adaptive dampers, and terrain-specific driving modes.

Is the 2020 Ford F-150 meaningfully different from the 2019 model?

Only in a few trim-specific ways. The strongest reason to favor a 2020 is its added standard driver assistance on Lariat and several upper trims; most mechanical specifications and standard equipment otherwise carried over.
