GEN 2 The first herd of Raptors has arrived in Dubai

Never trust stats shared by ME based automotive websites/magazines

They are usually wrong when stating power figures

Nope. Went to Al Tayer Motors, and they confirmed that it's 421 PS. A quick conversion on Google brings that to 415 HP. One salesman tried to convince me that the US horsepower numbers are a different metric than the ones used in Dubai, so somehow 421 PS is the same as 450 HP?? Lol. Clueless employees.

Sucks that the new Raptor in the GCC has basically the same power as the outgoing one.

I noticed the same, they have on the specs sheet at al tayer showroom, 421 PS.

But why do that ? maybe some environment regulations ? if this is the case, then changing the exhaust might help

torque is 678 N.m which converts to 500 lb.ft, american specs says 510 lb.ft which is close.

*shrug* Who knows? I know I'm happy with my Gen 1 Raptor and don't plan on buying a Gen 2 out here.
