New Ford F-150 Lightning Review
Get to know the new F-150 Lightning in this helpful overview. You’ll learn about the technologies that are driving this electric truck to become the new go-to light duty pickup for businesses across the United States.
Is it right for your company fleet? Or your busy lifestyle? Why did it win Motor Trend Truck of the Year? Here’s what you should know about driving this electric pickup and how it can work for you.
Performance
With two battery packs, the new Ford F150 Lightning offers fast and faster, strong and stronger ways to handle your work loads. Producing either 426 or 563 horsepower, it is clearly as skilled as any V10 or V12 before it. Even better, it can kick out 775 lb-ft of torque almost instantaneously.
If you are wondering about driving range, it is either 230 miles or 300 miles. So you won’t have to worry about electric range unless you are on a very long trip. Even then, this Ford electric truck has fast-charging capabilities to get you back on the road.. In fact, Ford just announced that its vehicles will be able to utilize Tesla charging facilities, doubling the places you can give this truck a charge.
As for the new Lightning price, it starts off much lower than many rivals, including the Rivian R1T and GMC Hummer. You should ask our staff about the current status of goodies, like the federal tax credit or Ford''s complementary charging bonus. Best of all, it’s been on the market for a few years, proving itself as reliable and durable like the rest of the F150 fleet.
The Remarkable Utility of the Ford Electric Truck
With a Mega Power Frunk, the new Ford F-150 Lightning leads its class in front-trunk capability. This frunk compartment measures 14.1 cubic feet. To put that in perspective, it’s the size of the trunk on a small sedan. It’s much stronger than that, though. The Ford Lightning frunk can handle up to 400 pounds of weight.
This Ford electric truck was designed to work hard every day. The high-strength bed can handle up to 2,235 pounds. It’s meant to tow, and it can handle 7,700 or even 10,000 pounds with ease. Its 5.5-foot bed is bigger than rivals such as the GMC Hummer. To be more specific, Ford Lightning beds measure 58.4 cubic feet, 20 cubic feet more than the Hummer.
For all the hard work that will surely come its way, the Lightning has the Ford tow-haul mode. For play, it has an off-road mode. If you need to power appliances at remote sites or just in your backyard, the Pro Power Onboard system is ready to assist you. A Ford Charge Station Pro adds the ability to use the Ford electric truck to power a home.
Interior
From above-class cool to beyond-class luxury, the interior of the F150 Lightning brings comfort, amenities, and top tech toys to pickup truck drivers and passengers. You’ll find these electric trucks are as well equipped as regular F150s. This means you can get the SecuriCode keyless entry system, power-adjustable pedals, and rich leather upholstery.
At its best equipped, the power-adjustable seats are ready to warm you up in winter, cool you off in summer, and give you a massage. ActiveMotion functions help fight travel fatigue. For our long hot summers in Phoenix, those ventilated front seats are definitely a major selling point for us. If you stop by our Phoenix Ford dealership, we'll let you try them out.
A 12-screen touchscreen provides all the connectivity anyone needs, but the available 15.5 portrait touchscreen does it even better. A digital instrument panel and head-up display give drivers plenty of ways to stay informed about electric truck systems.
Plus the cabin is quite spacious. With the F150 SuperCrew, the Lightning has 131.9 cubic feet of passenger space. On the back row, it has up to 43.6 inches of legroom.. This fact alone makes it perfect for managers who may have a team with them.
Technology
Intelligent Assist helps drivers stay aware of their electric range. Drivers are always informed ahead of time when charging will be needed. The Ford Pass App and the smart infotainment system help you find the nearest charging station.
Other companies are bringing electric trucks to the market, but no one knows the truck marketplace and its drivers better than Ford. This means that original Ford technologies are only available through the Lightning electric pickup. After all, it is part of the Ford F-150 lineup.
There are many towing technologies, including the trailer extension for the blind spot monitor. For loading, there’s the OnBoard Scales, and for hooking up, there’s the Smart Hitch, Hitch Assist, and a trailer guidance system. Pro Trailer Backup Assist is the most straightforward way to turn the trailer while keeping the truck at a different angle.
Safety
You can be sure that any Ford truck is built Ford tough and ready for anything. Even better, the F150 Lightning has technologies that assist the driver with staying out of harm’s way.
In busy traffic, you can look to adaptive cruise control for help. On long lonely roads, you may be able to use Blue Cruise for a semi-autonomous experience.
When backing up this big rig, the rear cross traffic alert and rearview camera are on the job. You will love the available perimeter camera for it’s 360-degree views.
As this electric truck maneuvers through Phoenix AZ traffic, the driver will appreciate a forward collision warning, an emergency auto brake, lane centering and lane departure assist, and blind spot warning.
Whether you are looking for a work truck, an adventure vehicle or a sporty ride, the new Lightning electric truck lineup has something for you. You are invited to schedule a test drive. Give us a call if you want to find out about ordering one of these new electric trucks.
