The 2025 Ford F-150 Platinum boasts premium features, but for a truly luxurious truck, consider adding the Platinum Plus package. A few years ago, Ford replaced the Limited trim with the Platinum Plus package, which now offers even more features. Understanding what the Platinum Plus package adds is an important part of choosing your top-of-the-line F-150. In this article, we’ll discuss everything you need to know about the F-150 Platinum and the Platinum Plus package so that you can make the best decision on your next truck.
Overview of the 2025 Ford F-150 Lineup
Ford’s pickup truck lineup includes eight different trim levels of the 2025 F-150: XL, STX, XLT, Lariat, Tremor, King Ranch, Platinum, and Raptor. The lineup starts with a basic work truck and climbs all the way to powerful luxury pickups.
What’s the Difference Between Ford Limited and Platinum?
The Ford F-150 used to have a luxurious Limited trim. However, Ford decided to replace the trim with the Platinum Plus package. This new package is available only on Platinum trim models. On top of everything the Platinum trim offers, the Platinum Plus package adds sophisticated luxury appointments and exclusive customer service perks, including a two-year maintenance plan, an elite welcome call, exclusive items, an accessories discount, extra FordPass Rewards Points, and one-on-one texting with experts from Ford. It’s the absolute best Ford can offer with no expense spared.
Performance and Engine Options
The F-150 Platinum comes standard with a powerful 3.5L EcoBoost V-6. It’s the perfect engine for serious towing jobs. It generates 400 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque, and it’ll let you tow up to 13,500 pounds and carry 2,440 pounds of payload. If you want a more fuel-efficient engine, you can choose the 3.5L PowerBoost V-6 hybrid.
By upgrading to the Platinum Plus package, you get the hybrid 3.5L PowerBoost standard. This engine produces 430 horsepower and 570 lb-ft of torque. It has slightly lower hauling numbers than the 3.5L EcoBoost, with a maximum towing capacity of 11,200 pounds and a maximum payload rating of 1,815 pounds.
Exterior Design and Features
The Platinum trim has bold, luxurious looks. It features a back surround grille and 20-inch wheels. Adding the Platinum Plus package elevates the F-150 to classic elegance. The package adds 22-inch premium painted chrome wheels and chrome accents that’ll never go out of style. You’ll also get the exclusive Platinum Plus exterior theme, which includes special hood lettering and black power-deployable running boards.
Interior and Technology
The Platinum trim has great tech features. You’ll get a 12-inch touch screen with SYNC 4, a Bang & Olufsen sound system, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and enhanced voice recognition. This trim only comes with the SuperCrew cab, which gives you 40.8 inches of front headroom, 43.9 inches of front legroom, and 43.6 inches of rear legroom. You’ll also get Black leather seats, along with brushed aluminum and gunmetal accents.
With the Platinum Plus package, your interior becomes even more luxurious and will feature a special interior theme. It comes with Smoked Truffle quilted leather seats with Platinum badging, a leather-wrapped instrument panel, tray-style floor liners, woodgrain accents, and a twin-panel moonroof. You’ll also get a tech upgrade with the head-up display.
Which Luxury F-150 Is Right for You?
Whether or not you add the Platinum Plus package to your F-150 Platinum, you’ll have an excellent, luxurious pickup. You can’t go wrong with either choice. However, there are a few factors to consider before making your final purchase.
One of the main things to keep in mind is the price. The Platinum trim starts at $74,905, and the Platinum Plus package brings the total to $89,240. If you’re seeking the ultimate luxury pickup truck experience, you’ll find the Platinum Plus package well worth it. It’s hard to beat the extra customer service perks this package provides.
You should also consider fuel economy and towing capacity. If you love luxury and want the best fuel economy for your daily commute or road trips, adding the Platinum Plus package is a good choice, as you won’t have to upgrade to the more efficient hybrid PowerBoost engine. However, if you need to haul heavy loads and work gear, you may want to choose the Platinum trim’s gas-powered EcoBoost engine, which offers better towing and payload capabilities.
