The 2021 F-150 had all of its body panels redesigned, but rides on the same frame as before, and so its overall dimensions don’t change. That’s the same for the Raptor, which has always been wider than its F-150 sibling. But it gets an extra half-inch of ground clearance over the last model, to 305 mm (12 inches) of space, and up to 330 mm (13.1) inches with its optional 37-inch tire package more on that later.
It comes strictly in SuperCrew configuration with 5-foot-6 bed, and as before, it’s an aluminum body (strong but
not “military-grade,” which is Ford’s made-up marketing term) with high-strength-steel frame. Both towing and payload capacity are up by 200 lbs each, to 8,200 and 1,400 lbs, respectively.

So how powerful is the 2021 Ford F-150 Raptor? Well, we don’t know yet.

And just in case you’re looking at this absolute monster and thinking
The wait for the second-generation Audi Q3 has been a long one. Revealed in 2018, the new Q3 has moved further up the ranks in terms of its design, size and features, and with the Q2 taking over as the entry-level Q model, the Q3 has been allowed some room to grow. Design-wise, the second-gen Q3 is clearly inspired by the bigger Q8, and thanks to the increase in dimensions, will be roomier than its predecessor. In international markets, the new Q3 is equipped with adaptive dampers, park assist, Audi’s 12.3-inch Virtual Cockpit digital instruments display, an 8.8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with voice controls, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a Bang & Olufsen sound system.
