Living in the Annapolis Valley means you need a truck that works as hard as you do. Whether you're hauling equipment to the orchards, towing boats to the Bay of Fundy, or managing winter storms, your vehicle needs to deliver without compromise. The 2025 Ford F-150 PowerBoost Hybrid brings together gas and electric power to create a truck that handles Valley life.
This hybrid system gives you proven F-150 toughness with technology that makes every job easier. The PowerBoost delivers real capability for Nova Scotia drivers who need serious performance for both work and weekend adventures.
Serious Power for Long Valley Drives
The 3.5L PowerBoost Full Hybrid V6 engine produces 430 horsepower and 570 lb-ft of torque. This hybrid system combines gas combustion and electric energy to handle heavy loads while improving fuel efficiency on longer drives between Kentville and Halifax.
The hybrid system automatically switches between gas, electric, and combined power based on driving conditions. During stop-and-go traffic in Halifax or highway cruising, the electric motor helps save fuel. When you need full power for acceleration or hill climbing, both systems work together.
The Built Ford Tough high-strength steel frame and military-grade aluminum alloy body handle demanding Maritime weather and heavy-duty use. Every component is engineered to last through the conditions that come with Nova Scotia driving.
Maximum Towing Capacity of 11,200 lbs
The PowerBoost Hybrid handles serious towing with a maximum capacity of 11,200 lbs. Whether you're hauling a boat to Digby or pulling equipment trailers between worksites, this capability comes with smart technology that makes hitching and maneuvering easier.
Key towing features include:
- Pro Trailer Backup Assist - rotate a knob to control trailer direction while the truck handles steering
- Pro Trailer Hitch Assist - automatically steers, accelerates, and brakes to align with conventional trailers
- Smart Trailer Tow Connector - alerts you to trailer light or brake issues
- Adaptive Suspension - automatically adjusts to handle heavy loads
- LED Dynamic Bending Headlamps - swivel up to 15 degrees around curves
The available Pro Access Tailgate swings open 100 degrees for easier bed access, putting you 19 inches closer to your cargo. This design works even when hitched to trailers, helping at boat launches or equipment transport.
Pro Power Onboard: 7.2kW Mobile Generator
The PowerBoost Hybrid transforms your truck into a mobile power source with up to 7.2kW of exportable electricity. For Valley residents who face power outages during winter storms or work in remote locations, this capability handles real challenges.
The 7.2kW system provides power through 120V outlets in both the cab and truck bed. You can operate welders, air compressors, power tools, and household appliances during emergencies. Monitor your power usage through the SYNC 4 touchscreen or FordPass app to track wattage in real time.
Common applications include powering work tools on construction sites without electricity, running equipment for outdoor events, or providing backup power during outages. The system handles everything from hammer drills and reciprocating saws to microwaves and televisions.
Built for Maritime Conditions
The F-150 addresses specific challenges of Maritime driving. Standard LED headlamps provide maximum visibility during long winter nights, while available LED fog lamps cut through coastal mist and Valley fog. The truck's 8.4-inch ground clearance handles rough terrain and seasonal flooding on rural Nova Scotia roads.
Interior features focus on real-world functionality. Available lockable under-seat storage keeps valuable tools secure. The Interior Work Surface converts your centre console into a flat workspace for paperwork or laptop use. Flip-up rear seats provide extra storage when your truck bed reaches capacity.
The military-grade aluminum alloy body and bed resist corrosion from Maritime salt air while maintaining strength for heavy loads. Multiple wheelbase and body style options let you configure your F-150 for specific needs while still fitting in most garages.
Payload Rating of 2,120 lbs
The PowerBoost Hybrid's available payload rating of 2,120 lbs comes from lightweight aluminum construction combined with a fully-boxed high-strength steel frame. This capacity handles building materials, farm supplies, and recreational equipment for weekend adventures.
The Adaptive Suspension system monitors vehicle loading, road conditions, and steering inputs. It automatically adjusts shock absorber stiffness for enhanced control when carrying maximum payload through Valley hills or coastal highways.
Whether you're loading apple bins during harvest season, hauling landscaping materials for spring projects, or packing camping gear for trips to Kejimkujik, the PowerBoost Hybrid's combination of capacity and technology keeps your load secure and your truck performing predictably.
The F-150 PowerBoost Hybrid delivers serious capability with improved efficiency and advanced technology. For Annapolis Valley residents who depend on their trucks for both work and life, this hybrid system provides proven performance with modern innovation.
