Ford employees and F-150 Lightning customers will join the “Job 1” event for the first-ever full-size all-electric pickup to go on sale, a milestone moment in the country’s shift to electric vehicles.
Ford engineers took the first all-electric F-Series to two of America’s toughest real-world towing routes during development – Davis Dam in the summer and TFLTruck’s Ike Gauntlet in the winter.
Fleet customers have the option to purchase the extended range battery on Lightning Pro, which has an EPA-estimated range of 320 miles.
Formally called low-mu testing, this type of powertrain evaluation looks at how the all-electric powertrain adjusts power delivery to the wheels on low-traction surfaces.
Ford President and CEO Jim Farley said the company’s “taking EVs mainstream,” citing orders or reservations of more 275,000 all-electric Mustang Mach-E SUVs, F-150 Lightning pickups, and E-Transit commercial vehicles.
Ford is betting on Ford Pro to meet a connected, electric mobility future. What’s the plan?
Hear about the key fleet takeaways from CES 2022, including the new Silverado EV, F-150 Lightning order banks, RAM Pro Master EV van, and much more in this State of the Fleet Industry.
Fleets looking to order an F-150 Lightning in the first wave must have entered their interest as a “hand-raiser” with a valid FIN on Ford’s website. Additional reservation holders will be invited in phases to order over the next few months.
Customers can use their F-150 Lightning or F-150 PowerBoost Hybrid to charge electric vehicles from Ford and other manufacturers.
The 2022 F-150 Lightning pickup’s new front trunk, also called a frunk, is the largest in the truck industry – with 14.1 cu.-ft. of cargo space and maximum payload capacity of 400 lbs.
