What does a 2020 Ford Raptor with Supercab weigh
Executive summary
The 2020 Ford F-150 Raptor in SuperCab configuration is a heavy, aluminum-intensive performance pickup with a commonly cited curb weight of about 5,508 pounds; that figure appears in multiple third‑party spec compilations (Car and Driver) while other vendor and OEM summaries show small variations or break down weights by axle rather than a single curb figure (Car and Driver; Auto123) [1] [2].
1. Direct answer: the most commonly reported curb weight
Industry spec databases and mainstream auto outlets list the 2020 F-150 Raptor’s curb weight around 5,508 lb, a number captured in a widely used Car and Driver spec sheet for the Raptor line [1]; that is the best single-number answer available in the provided reporting for the Raptor’s curb mass.
2. Why a single “weight” can be misleading — configurations and options matter
Curb weight is not immutable across trims and options: cab size (SuperCab vs SuperCrew), bed length, drivetrain, wheel/tire choices and accessory packages change curb and axle loads, and several sources note that final weight depends on cab and bed selection and optional equipment — Heritage Ford’s research overview of 2020 F-150 weights emphasizes that different cabs and engines yield different final weights and that the Raptor is among the heaviest variants [3] [4].
3. How sources report weight differently — whole-vehicle vs. axle breakdowns
Some spec sites split weight information into front/rear curb distribution rather than giving a single curb figure: Auto123’s listing shows front and rear curb weights reported separately (for example, front 3,222 lb and rear 2,462 lb in its Raptor table), which sum to roughly the single curb figure reported elsewhere but illustrates that published data can be presented in different formats [2]; other outlets (Edmunds, J.D. Power, MotorTrend, Autoblog) provide full-spec pages where the curb weight is included or implied, reinforcing the same general mass class for the 2020 Raptor [5] [6] [7] [8].
4. The OEM source and authoritative specification records
Ford’s own technical materials and media specs are the authoritative source for factory ratings and typical curb/payload figures; the Ford media tech-spec PDF is listed among the provided sources as the OEM reference for the 2020 F-150 Raptor but the excerpts in the reporting set here do not reproduce a single explicit curb-weight line in the snippet, so third-party aggregators that cite OEM data (Car and Driver, U.S. News, Edmunds) are being used to report the commonly referenced 5,508 lb figure [9] [1] [10] [5].
5. Practical implications and reporting limitations
For practical use — towing, payload planning, insurance/classification — treating the 2020 Raptor SuperCab as roughly a 5,500-pound vehicle is appropriate, but buyers and operators should check the specific vehicle’s door‑jamb placard or Ford build sheet for the exact curb and gross axle weight ratings on a particular truck because vendor sites sometimes differ in presentation and the included excerpts here do not contain a single, unequivocal OEM curb‑weight entry for the SuperCab beyond the third‑party aggregate [2] [3] [9].
