Ford F-250 Super Duty Performance Overview
Ford’s F-250 Super Duty performance record spans 1999 to 2023 across 21 verified tests, tracing how this heavy-duty pickup’s acceleration changed through successive diesel and gasoline setups. Early first-generation Super Duty models mixed naturally aspirated gas V8s with the 6.0L Power Stroke diesel, with the 1999 XLT Regular Cab 2-door reaching 60 mph in 7.9 seconds, while the slower end of the sample came from the 2003 King Ranch 6.0L Crew Cab at 9.7 seconds. Second-generation trucks remained diesel-focused and slower in the available data, including an 8.7-second run from the 2008 King Ranch 6.4L Crew Cab.
The third generation’s 6.7L diesel brought the pace back to 7.9 seconds in the 2012 King Ranch Crew Cab, before the 2017-2022 fourth generation widened the spread with both gasoline and diesel options, from the Boss 6.2 gas V8 to higher-output 6.7L Power Stroke variants. That era produced a 6.7-second 0-60 time in the 2017 XL 6.2L SuperCab and a 6.1-second run in the 2020 Lariat Tremor 6.7L Crew Cab.
Today, the 2023 fifth generation sits at the top of the data set, with the 475-hp diesel-only tested range led by the 5.5-second 2023 Platinum Tremor 6.7L Crew Cab and a 14.1-second quarter-mile at 97 mph.

How we verify Ford F-250 Super Duty performance data
Records and averages on this page cover verified production runs only; modified and prototype results are listed by year but never folded into them. We include only independently published road-test results from automotive publications. Manufacturer-claimed 0–60 times are excluded unless clearly labeled. When multiple publications test the same Ford F-250 Super Duty trim, each run is listed separately — weather, tires, surface, rollout, and instrumentation all affect results.
