How many more yrs do we have of the Ford Raptor?

How many more years do you think we will still have the Ford Raptor with a gasoline engine?

Not long. Slow Joe is bending us over a barrel of oil ... https://www.transportation.gov/brie...e-fuel-economy-standards-model-year-2024-2026

I think the Raptor will be ICE only for the next 2 years max, then it’ll be a hybrid for 5-7, then after that it’ll likely be EV. Basically the Lightning with Raptor suspension. I’m not really excited for any of this.

Might be alone in this but I think ford will make a raptor EV fairly soon and it will kick all the other EV off-roading trucks out of the water. The lightning is probably the only EV truck I’d buy since it’s a reasonable price, decent range, and looks the best. Hopefully it lives up to its expectations.

Hate to say it but the way things are looking, EV vehicles are becoming the next big thing and gasoline vehicles will become antiques. It’s for the better long term but it sucks we are starting with consumer vehicles rather than the industrial sector which is far worse than personal vehicles.

I think the term "Ford Raptor" will be a sub model across the entire line of Ford Motor Company for the Bronco, F150, Ranger, Transit, etc. The original f150 ford raptor is dead when this generation runs out, because big gas guzzling twin turbo v6 engines will soon be attached to ocean liners chains as anchors and used as Airport Shuttle bus's to replace the old tried and true obsolete 6.2 boss motors.

i would think the next generation Raptor will be full Electric. 2024-2025 model.

You are right. EVERYTHING is going EV now. We are in the preliminary stages right now, and the infrastructure is not fully there. I would say by 2025 it will be. I don’t think any automotive company will be making gasoline powered vehicles after 2025. 3 years of these TT v6’s and it will be done.

You’re giving one man to much credit. There has been a push towards alternative fuels for as long as I can remember. If all you can say is “go Brandon” then you’re out of touch with reality.

Electric motors produce insane HP, torque and acceleration. The charging infrastructure and battery range needs to catch up.

That is exactly it. The batteries will be 1/4 of the size in 5 years. They are working on this now. Range will be significantly increased as well.
