Ford vs. The Competition
The 2026 Ford Raptor R doesn’t just compete in the performance truck category — it defines it.
| Feature | Ford F-150 Raptor R | RAM TRX | Chevy Silverado ZR2 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Horsepower | 720+ hp | 702 hp | 420 hp |
| Torque | 640+ lb-ft | 650 lb-ft | 460 lb-ft |
| Suspension | FOX Live Valve, 37” tires | Bilstein, 35” tires | Multimatic DSSV |
| Weight | Lighter (Aluminum body) | Heavier (Steel) | Heavier (Steel) |
| Drive Modes | 7 modes including Baja | 5 modes | 4 modes |

The numbers tell the story: Ford reigns supreme. The Raptor R’s supercharged power, innovative suspension, and weight-saving aluminum body give it a performance edge that no other truck can match.
While the RAM TRX may have started the horsepower race, Ford has finished it — with superior engineering, lighter construction, and smarter design.

It’s not just about horsepower or torque; it’s about balance, control, and confidence. The Raptor R embodies Ford’s Built Wild™ philosophy, proving that capability and comfort can coexist without compromise.
