Published on May 22, 2025 by Brandon Ford

Do you love old school street trucks that deliver heart-pounding performance? The 2025 Ford Maverick Lobo has reintroduced the street truck design to the Ford lineup and there are rumors of the Ford F-150 adding a street-tuned Ford F-150 Lobo to the spec sheet. We are excited for the potential debut of a 2026 Ford F-150 Lobo at Brandon Ford in Tampa, FL and have created an overview of the 2026 Ford F-150 Lobo prototype design and performance features to provide insight into this addition to the Ford pickup truck lineup. 

Will the 2026 Ford F-150 Lobo Be Available at Dealerships?

If you love athletic performance from a street-tuned pickup truck, the 2026 Ford F-150 Lobo may be the perfect fit for you at Brandon Ford in Tampa, FL. At this point — the 2026 Ford F-150 Lobo remains a rumored addition to the Ford F-150 lineup — albeit with some convincing evidence to support it. Multiple prototypes have been seen on the road with camouflage and without — and documented by Ford Authority.

 

With the popularity of the 2025 Ford Maverick Lobo and the evidence provided by Ford F-150 Lobo prototypes, it is reasonable to expect the street-tuned Lobo to join the 2026 Ford F-150 lineup when it is revealed. Prototypes spotted on the road have featured a more aggressive style with a lower suspension, 22-inch Gloss Black wheels, Bridgestone performance tires, an LED light bar, a larger air intake, hood vents, aggressive front fascia, Lobo badging, and lower side skirts to improve aerodynamics.

With excitement building around the debut of a street-tuned Ford F-150 Lobo, many potential buyers are wondering what will be under the hood. The Ford F-150 provides a variety of potent powertrain options that start with the 400-horsepower 3.5-liter EcoBoost® V-6 that is a hallmark of the lineup. When the 2026 Ford F-150 Lobo arrives, it will be powered by the iconic 400-horsepower 5.0-liter V-8 that promises eight-cylinder sound effects and plenty of muscle when you get behind the wheel.  

 

Upgraded powertrains in the Ford F-150 Lobo may be paired with enhanced handling and performance features. The Ford Maverick Lobo employs torque vectoring steering and a twin-clutch rear drive unit that provide an instant upgrade to handling when you get behind the wheel by shifting torque based on steering input. In addition to enhanced steering, the Ford Maverick Lobo adds a Lobo Mode to deactivate the stability control system and increase performance. Buyers can expect a potential Ford F-150 Lobo to employ similar performance features.
