The Ford Atlas is a concept pickup truck that was unveiled by Ford on January 15, 2013 as a preview of the thirteenth generation Ford F-Series, with the most notable change being a switch to primarily aluminum construction. Its features include LED lighting, hidden cargo ramps, all-around cameras, and active aerodynamics meant to improve fuel efficiency at high speeds. The active aerodynamics should improve the Atlas's fuel economy by two mpg.
