You’re totally right—pickup trucks aren’t necessarily built for speed, but it’s still an important factor to consider when thinking about performance. The 2022 Ford
F-150 comes with a wide variety of engine options, so top speeds will vary quite a bit, but the top speed of the fastest trim level is about 120 mph. These top speeds can only be reached in the Ford F-150 Police Responder, which is specifically designed as a law enforcement vehicle (although civilians can buy them too). In testing with the Michigan State Police, this truck recorded a 0-60 mph time of 5.5 seconds.
The next fastest option is the Ford F-150 Lightning—the aptly named electric vehicle in the lineup—which has a top speed of 112mph. This is thanks to two electric motors making a combined 580 horsepower and 775 pound-feet of torque, which will take drivers from 0 to 60mph 4.0 seconds flat. It may just be the quickest all-electric truck on the market.
If you want a more traditional gas-powered F-150 that can hold its own on the race track, go with the Raptor. The 2021 model has a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 engine that allows it to reach a top speed of 107 mph, going from 0 to 60mph in about 5.3 seconds.
