Performance in the F-350SD Lariat is defined by the 6.7L Power Stroke V8 diesel engine paired with a 10-speed automatic, delivering smooth gear transitions and responsive acceleration under load.

Dual front impact airbags, dual front side impact airbags, and overhead airbags offer occupant protection in various collision scenarios. Features like brake assist boost stopping power in emergencies, and the SYNC 4 911 Assist emergency communication system ensures rapid response in critical moments. Traction control and tire pressure monitoring further contribute to real-world safety by helping drivers maintain control and awareness.
