2022 FORD F-150 LIGHTNING


The all-electric Ford F-150 Lightning pickup will
be one of the most significant EVs to ever hit
the market. That it’s based on the best-selling
vehicle in America would be reason alone. But
the Lightning, which has dual motors and all-
wheel drive, will also make more torque than
any other F-150 produced — up to 775 lb-ft —
and have the ability to use its battery pack as
a power source. It’s robust enough to power a
house during a power outage, potentially
for days.


The F-150 Lightning, which comes out in the
spring, will be offered with standard- and
extended-range battery packs. The standard
pack model comes with 426 horsepower
and has a Ford-claimed driving range of 230
miles, and the extended pack is rated at 563
horsepower and has a longer driving range of
300 miles. Maximum towing capacity when
properly equipped will be 10,000 pounds,
which is enough for a medium-size trailer.


Starting price: $41,669
