A new off-road Tremor package also debuts this year, and all models have a revised front and rear end along with more equipment. Here is a look at the 2020 Ford SuperDuty.

Wireless device charging is also available on some trims.
The Numerous Safety Features
All the F-250 and F-350 models have a rearview camera, and if you take a few steps up to the Platinum or Limited, you’ll get adaptive cruise control. The XLT and above all come standard with lane-keeping assist and a blind-spot information system with trailer coverage that helps you see vehicles approaching in your blind spot, even when you’re pulling a trailer. All trims, except the base XL, come with pre-collision assist and automatic emergency braking, and all trims have class-exclusive seat belts pretensioners that automatically activate in an accident.
