2024 Ford F-150 vs 2023 Ford F-150

This year, Ford expands the F-150 lineup yet again. The big news is the debut of the F-150 Raptor R, equipped with a supercharged 5.2-litre V8 engine making 700 horsepower and 640 pound-feet of torque. The new 2023 F-150 Raptor R also has exclusive R-tuned Fox live-valve shocks, standard 37-inch all-terrain tires, and a few other goodies to justify its presumably six-figure price tag (Canadian pricing has not been announced as of publication time).

The other new version of the 2023 Ford F-150 is more accessible: the XLT Heritage Edition. It has two-tone paint, unique cloth seat inserts, and exclusive 75 Years interior details. That’s the subject of this review.

For 2024, this full-size truck under Canada’s best-selling nameplate gets a few tweaks both inside and out. The performance upgrades are most noticeable on the off-road-specific models, Tremor and Raptor R, but Ford’s hands-free driving assist Blue Cruise gets an update as well.

Verdict: The 2024 Ford F-150 gets even better with a few thoughtful improvements like a multi-functional tailgate, standard 12-inch touchscreen, and more available interior technology. Blue Cruise is also updated, making the F-150 the truck to beat in the segment.
