2021 Ford Transit-350 Engine Options
There are two V6 engines you can have implemented into your 2021 Ford Transit-350. The construction of the engines are quite similar as they both feature a 3.5L arrangement. Each motor is also mated to a quick-shifting 10-speed Selectshift® automatic transmission. Their power outputs are different, however.
The standard 3.5L PFDI V6 makes 275 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. If you feel you want more thrust off the line or more get-up when trying to make a passing maneuver, you can step up to the 3.5L EcoBoost® V6 which generates 310 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque.
The reason for the different power outputs comes back to fuel delivery, as the PFDI motor uses direct injection while the EcoBoost® V6 relies on direct injection plus dual turbochargers. Other important performance attributes include your choice of rear-wheel or all-wheel drive plus a fuel tank capacity of either 25 gallons or 31 gallons.
So, important performance options include:
- 3.5L V6 making 275 horsepower, 262 lb-ft of torque or 310 horsepower, 400 lb-ft of torque
- Front-wheel or all-wheel drive
- Fuel tank capacity of 25 gallons or 31 gallons
