Is ford redesigning the f250 for 2023

Chris Teague | Sep 28, 2022

In the past couple of years, Ford redesigned the F-150 and finally released the all-electric F-150 Lightning, so it was high time for an F-Series Super Duty overhaul. The hard-working trucks got what they needed for the 2023 model year. Ford announced a more powerful line of heavy-duty trucks with a load of available new tech, great standard safety features, and unique upfits to make the trucks more appropriate for specific industries.

The 2023 Super Duty is available in six trim levels, including XL, XLT, Lariat, King Ranch, Platinum, and Limited. Four engines are on offer, and while Ford hasn’t elaborated on specs for the new powertrains, expect torque numbers that extend past the 1,000-pound-foot mark and impressive horsepower outputs.

How to Test a Car Battery with a Multimeter

Car manufacturers often introduce cars of a later model year much earlier to highlight some of the upgrades consumers can expect in an upcoming model. That's the case with the 2023 Ford F-250. Despite undergoing

modifications

for 2020 and 2021 models, the

Ford Motor Company

is expected to give the 2023 Ford Super Duty lineup a total overhaul. 

Ford Motor Company was most likely compelled to redesign its F-250 Super Duty series to stay ahead of its top competitors, such as the Chevy Silverado and GMC trucks. Revising its Super Duty series also offers the company an opportunity to keep up with the latest car technology for the 2023 Ford F-250 and other models. 

A sneak peek at the 2023 Ford F-250 and the redesigned line

According to

Ford Authority

, Ford Motor Company is still keeping the details about the 2023 Ford F-250 redesign under wraps. 

However, one thing that's known is that the Super Duty truck will still be available with a diesel engine despite the American automaker dropping the 3.0L Power Stroke for the F-150. Due to the high competition in the truck sector, Ford is expected to upgrade the model's engine output regarding horsepower and torque. 

The 2020 model featured several upgrades, including the aesthetic appearance, new technology, and an all-new Ford's 7.3L Godzilla V8 engine. With the 2022 model, it’s easy to notice the updated interior and exterior colors, new tech features, and revised appearance packages. 

Before the 2023 Ford F-250, what does the 2022 lineup offer?

If you're planning to invest in the 2022 Ford F-250 next year, you can expect several impressive upgrades that include a SYNC 4, 12-inch center touchscreen infotainment system, similar to the one found in the

2021 Ford F-150 model

. However, that will only be a standard feature in higher trims: Lariat, Limited, Platinum, XL, and XLT.

Additionally, there are a few upgrades in the 2022 model's Appearance Packages. For instance, the Lariat will now feature an appearance upgrade that includes exterior mirrors, body-color bumpers, grille, black running boards, and chrome tailpipes. Shoppers of the XLT can enjoy a Black Appearance Package that includes ebony-black wheels, body-color front, and rear bumpers, ebony-black running boards, and grille bars.

Nonetheless, Ford enthusiasts will not see several features in the 2022 Super Duty truck. The under-hood service light will be unavailable, and so will be the Tremor Off-Road Package for the XLT trim level. On a more promising note, a pair of Super Duty trucks was seen running on autonomous vehicle (AV) hardware used for hands-free technology, indicating that Ford plans to advance its new BlueCruise feature soon.

Shortcomings in the current 2021 model

The Ford F-250 has always been a go-to truck for people looking for a heavy-duty vehicle that can handle heavy loads and unforgiving working conditions. And while it does an excellent job at that, the current 2021 has had two main issues, forcing the manufacturer to recall some of its 2021 models.  

One of the problems is the visibility caused by stability issues with the

windshield

in the A-pillar. The American automaker was compelled to recall some of its 2021 F-150, F-250, F-350, and F-550 Super Duty trucks. These vehicles had improperly fitted windshields, increasing their chances of getting detached during a crash. Granted, they did not meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS).

As indicated by

Consumer Reports

, another issue affected the steering and suspension systems, caused by a faulty Centerline Stabilizer Kit with part number 65050. The manufacturer, Icon Vehicle Dynamics, is thus recalling specific models, including the F-250 and F-350. The faulty stabilizer caused the steering system to lock up, increasing the risk of crashing.
