The Ford F-150 Lightning, Ford’s Electric Truck, Promises to Revolutionize the Electric Vehicle Market. This Is the American Company’s Big Bet

The focus of automakers in the coming decades is to build increasingly efficient electric cars that are affordable for consumers. With this in mind, Ford launched this week the electric truck Ford F-150 Lightning, the company’s main bet to enter the electric vehicle market.

“For both Ford and the automotive industry, the F-150 Lightning represents a pivotal moment as we move toward a future of zero carbon emissions and digitally connected,” said Bill Ford, executive chairman of Ford in the U.S.

Batteries

The Ford F-150 Lightning features two liquid-cooled batteries. The standard model has a range of 370 km, while the extended version of the truck will have about 482 km of range. It is worth noting that other factors such as towing, terrain, and weather will certainly cause the range to vary significantly.

Price

In the U.S., the truck will have a starting sale price of $39,700. In the country, there are several government incentives that will cause the price to go down. In some states, it can be purchased for up to $30,000.

The Ford F-150 Lightning also features an innovative system that works as a type of backup power. In case of a power outage in your home, the vehicle can keep the home lights on for a period.

Public Presentation

The official presentation of Ford’s new truck took place on Wednesday, the 19th. All the vehicle’s updates were finally unveiled, with many people approving the design and functionalities of the vehicle. Watch the launch video below.
