Ford Raptor 3.5t has a combined fuel consumption of 16.7L/100km. More details about the Ford Raptor are as follows: 1. The dimensions of the Ford Raptor are 5910mm in length, 2192mm in width, and 1992mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3708mm. 2. The Ford Raptor comes with 17-inch wheels, equipped with 315/70R17 BFGoodrich all-terrain tires. 3. The Ford Raptor is powered by a 3.5L V6 twin-turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 310 kW and a peak torque of 678 Nm, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission featuring auto start-stop technology.
As a Raptor 3.5T owner for over two years, I'm quite authoritative about its fuel consumption. Pure city driving in traffic starts at 17-18 mpg, and can spike to 20 during rush hours. Highway cruising with speed control can bring it down to 11-12 mpg, but it depends on driving technique. The most extreme was 21.5 mpg when hauling a truckbed full of construction materials - the 3.5L twin-turbo is no joke. I recommend installing an instant fuel consumption display to help control throttle impulses. BTW, switching to AT off-road tires will add at least 1 mpg more.
Having tested three different model years of the Raptor 3.5T, the actual combined fuel consumption of 13.5-15L/100km is considered normal. One characteristic of this vehicle is that cold starts are particularly fuel-intensive, with winter short-distance commutes reaching up to 19L. After a friend flashed the ECU program, the power increased but fuel consumption rose by 1.5L, with the key factor being the cleanliness of the throttle body. I make it a habit to add a bottle of fuel additive before refueling; reduced carbon deposits do save some fuel, and the engine sounds better too. Timely replacement of the oil filter and air filter is crucial, as a clogged air filter can quietly increase fuel consumption.
