Electrified Raptor is a car that combines power and speed. With a supercharged V8, a hybrid or all-electric powertrain, and customizable options, this SUV is sure to turn heads.
Terrain Management System
Whether you are off-roading in the desert, tackling a sandy trail, or going through mud, the Terrain Management System for electrified Raptor is a great way to optimize your vehicle’s performance for any terrain. This system is easy to understand, and lets you fine-tune your driving experience.
The system adjusts torque in a split second, and it uses steering angle and throttle position to determine how much torque is needed for a particular terrain. It’s also able to adjust your vehicle’s handling depending on the drive mode you choose.
You can choose from six different drive modes when you are driving the Raptor. Each mode provides different settings to optimize your vehicle’s handling on or off the road. For example, the Raptor’s Normal mode is perfect for everyday driving. It applies the right mix of 4×4 low and high to maximize traction.
You can also set your vehicle up for racing track work or for on-road sportiness. There’s a mode called Weather, which automatically activates 4 Auto and tunes your throttle and gearshift response for inclement weather. You can also choose the Sport mode to sharpen your throttle response.
Supercharged V8
Earlier this week, Ford revealed their next generation Raptor. The F-150 Raptor R will be equipped with a supercharged 5.2-liter V8 from the Shelby GT500. This engine is rated to produce 700 horsepower and 640 pound-feet of torque.
The supercharged V8 is designed to conquer any terrain, but it’s also built for everyday use. It’s got a 13.1-inch ground clearance and standard 37-inch tires. It also comes with a driver-adjustable active valve system to customize the sound. Its three-inch equal-length exhaust system produces a powerful and engaging sound.
It’s also been tweaked to produce 66% more air volume. The Raptor’s air intake system is equipped with a new pulley that improves low-end performance and boosts torque delivery at mid-range speeds.
A 10-speed automated transmission was also created by GM and Ford to work with the Raptor’s powerful V8. It’s been tuned by Ford Performance to deliver Built Ford Tough durability.
The Raptor also has a driver-adjustable active valving system. It allows the driver to choose from four different sound modes to customize the car’s performance.
Hybrid or all-electric powertrains
Several sources have told us that Ford is working on a hybrid or all-electric powertrain for the Raptor. But is it possible? If so, how much will it cost? And will it be a success?
The answer to that question depends on how much the battery is able to store. If it is large enough, it would give you a range of more than 300 miles, which is more than enough for the Raptor.
But, even though the battery would give you a good range, the Raptor would be a lot heavier and more expensive than a normal Raptor. The Raptor would also have a much larger engine, making it less powerful. Besides, it would not really benefit customers.
The hybrid or all-electric powertrain could also give the F-150 pickup truck more torque at the low end. That would be good for climbing hills and towing loads. It would also work well in stop-and-go traffic.
It could also provide an increased range, which would be good for the Raptor. The powertrain would probably be able to handle a 10-gallon fuel tank, which would provide a range of 300 miles.
Customization options
Electrified versions of the Ford Raptor can be customized to suit drivers’ needs. It’s no secret that Ford is aiming to shift more of its power generation to electric vehicles. But that doesn’t mean Raptor fans can’t get their hands on custom graphics and suspension packages for their off-road vehicles. Depending on the model, you can customize the vehicle’s exterior, interior, wheels, and suspensions.
The Raptor R features a new torque converter and a heavy-duty turbine damper. It also includes a four-pinion rear output assembly. Its exhaust system features an active valve system and an exhaust system that includes modes for Normal, Baja, and Trail 1-Pedal Drive. In addition, the vehicle’s interior features a new 12.8-inch Center Display. This new display offers enhanced visibility through multiple camera views. The interior also features genuine carbon fiber trim. Its seats are upholstered in black leather with Alcantara faux suede.
The Raptor R is also equipped with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Trail Turn Assist. It features standard 37-inch tires and 13.1-inch ground clearance. The bed of the truck features a unique graphics package that is meant to look like cracked desert earth.
