Shelby American has recently revealed its latest creations, the V6-powered Ford F-150 Raptor and the V8-powered Raptor R. These high performance pickup trucks are set to make their public debut at the upcoming Barrett-Jackson event in Scottsdale, Arizona.
The F-150 Raptor, in particular, has been transformed into a formidable beast with over 900 horsepower. Shelby American has been known for its ability to take Ford models and turn them into ferocious machines, and the 2024 Shelby Baja Raptor is no exception.
This latest iteration of the F-150 Raptor is designed to dominate both on and off-road, with its aggressive styling and powerful engine.
The Shelby American F-150 Raptor has a rich history dating back to 2012, when the first model was introduced shortly after the passing of founder Carroll Shelby. Shelby himself was heavily involved in the development of the V8-powered F-150 muscle truck, making this model a fitting tribute to his vision.
Since its debut at the 2013 New York Auto Show, the Shelby edition Raptor has continued to evolve, with each generation offering even more power and performance. Shelby American has once again worked its magic on the F-150 Raptor, transforming it into a motorized monster without compromising its off-road capabilities.
Earlier this year, Shelby American also revealed its take on the S550 Mustang, the “Super Snake,” which boasts an impressive 830 horsepower thanks to a 3.0-liter Whipple supercharger. This latest F-150 Raptor follows in the footsteps of the Super Snake, demonstrating Shelby American’s commitment to continuous improvement and innovation.
Shelby American has Revealed its latest performance upgrades for the Ford F-150 Raptor and Raptor R. The trucks now boast over 900 horsepower thanks to a supercharged 3.8-liter engine and Borla performance exhaust.
A BDS suspension lift kit, FOX Live Valve shocks, and enhanced cooling system further raise the off road capabilities. The Super Snake package, available for both manual and automatic transmissions, adds even more power and performance.
Aggressive 37-inch mud tires and custom Shelby style racing stripes give the trucks a menacing appearance. The interior features premium leather seats, Shelby logos, and billet racing pedals. The Shelby American F-150 Raptor and Raptor R are available in limited numbers and start at $61,995 and $64,995, respectively.
