Ford took its 720-horsepower F-150 Raptor R pickup truck and turned it into a 900-plus-horsepower monster.
The supercharged Raptor R was unveiled at SEMA Fest 2025 earlier this month. At this point, it’s a project vehicle by Ford Performance Parts, but the company indicates that Raptor R owners can upfit their trucks through a Ford dealer or an ASE-certified technician.
To achieve the higher horsepower, Ford added a 3.0-liter Whipple supercharger kit to the truck's 5.2-liter V8 engine.
The company says the supercharged truck is street legal in all 50 states and is designed to be CARB-certified for California. If the upfit is performed by a Ford dealer or ASE-certified tech, it comes with a three-year/36,000-mile Ford Performance Parts warranty. A price has not been revealed for the upgrade.

This is not the only project expanding the limits of the Raptor R. Last year, Hennessey unveiled its 1,000-plus-horsepower version: the VelociRaptor 1000.
The Texas-based Hennessey called it “the new king of trucks,” able to go from 0 to 60 mph in 3.1 seconds.
The modified pickup truck, with a 3.8-liter Whipple Supercharger added to Ford’s V8, boosts the 2024 Raptor R by 300 horsepower – for a total of 1,043 bhp (brake horsepower), Hennessey said.
Other features on the souped-up ride include high-flow air induction, front and rear VelociRaptor bumpers, Hennessey wheels, 3-inch lift and power fold-out steps.
"We wanted to create a blueprint for the ultimate factory-backed Raptor, combining immense power with the rugged capability that the name implies," says Matt Simpson, Ford executive director of accessories and personalization. "This is for the enthusiast who looks at the F-150 Raptor R and says, 'How can we take it further?’”Ford Performance Parts
