The Ford 4.4 Turbo Diesel is the engine Ford is developing for their F-series trucks both as a base Diesel for their Super Duty Line and possibly for the F-150/Expedition. PSA may introduce this engine as the flagship of the upcoming 608 range.

It is to be based on the Lion V6 Diesel and has an estimated power output of 330 hp (246 kW) and 515 ft·lbf (698 N·m) of torque. As with the other AJDs it will have a Compacted Graphite Iron block due to the higher power output.

This engine could be seen in Ford trucks as early as 2008.
