While we don’t have all of the details on the new Raptor’s engine specs yet, we’ve taken a look at the power of the model’s previous generation and if it’s anywhere near as powerful as the last Raptor, we’ll be happy. That being said, the rumor mills surrounding this long-anticipated model are suggesting that the new model will be even more powerful than its predecessor. According to a leaked document reported by Autoblog.com, the 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor will have 450 horsepower and 510 lb.-ft. of torque.
This of course hasn’t been confirmed yet, but it’s definitely something to get excited over!
