At the NTEA Work Truck Show in Indianapolis, Ford revealed its 2016 F-650 and F-750 medium-duty vocational trucks with a new engine and chassis.

The new models will be available in Spring 2015 and will be available in three cab styles and three models. You’ll be able to choose from a Regular Cab, SuperCab and Crew Cab in a straight frame, dock height or an all-new dedicated tractor model for heavy towing.

The look of the new trucks clearly continues the new styling established by the 2015 F-150 with grille “nostrils” as Ford calls them, saying they improve airflow and cooling performance.

The new trucks will feature the second-generation 6.7-liter Power Stroke V-8 diesel, paired with a medium-duty six-speed TorqShift automatic transmission. The powertrain will offer three horsepower and torque levels and a five-year/250,000 mile limited warranty.

Horsepower, torque and towing specifics were not announced.

The Power Stroke V-8 is the same engine powering Ford’s new F-250, F-350 and F-450 Super Duty pickups and features design improvements including a larger turbocharger and new fuel injector tips Ford says reduce noise and provide a more complete fuel burn.
