“With the F-150 SVT Raptor, we are delivering a true off-road performance truck with the proven ‘Built Ford Tough’ capability and durability that is at the core of every F-150 and the best in performance thanks to the team at SVT... Like its fighter jet and dinosaur namesakes, the F-150 SVT Raptor is tough, fast, aggressive, and built with the off-road enthusiast in mind.” said Derrick Kuzak, Ford’s group vice president for Global Product Development.

The all-new 2010 F-150 SVT Raptor is a purpose-built, high-performance 4WD off-road truck versatile enough to take on the most challenging desert adventures as well as the everyday commute.

F150 Raptor Suspension

Building a high-performance off-road truck is not about the horsepower – it’s about the suspension. The F-150 SVT Raptor features:

• 12.1 inches of usable travel in the rear suspension and 11.2 in the front – its wider track and softer suspension mean it will comparatively glide over obstacles.
• Unique internal bypass FOX Racing Shox, the only internal bypass shocks on a street truck. The position sensitive dampening internal bypass feature allows the shock to become significantly stiffer as it travels, preventing the truck from bottoming out.
• Ford SVT-tuned BFGoodrich 35” All-Terrain T/A® KO (315/70R17) tires use a special tread compound with softer rubber for better performance on and off-road and for precise and predictable steering. The interior of the tire was modified to improve lateral firmness.
