Ford Intelligent Backup Power, over-the-air software updates and intelligent range… The Lightning will never cease to amaze you!

The F-150 Lightning: much more than a pickup

Did you know that the Ford F-150 Lightning can power your home during a blackout? A fully charged battery can provide electricity to your home for three days or even up to ten days if you carefully ration your consumption. This available feature is just one of the extraordinary assets of this new model, which is sure to revolutionize the electric pickup market in North America. In fact, the F-150 Lightning won’t be shy in the presence of the biggest players in its class, including the Tesla Cybertruck and the Rivian RT1.

The Ford F-150 Lightning is equipped with two electric motors, allowing it to tow as much if not more than its combustion-engine counterparts can. The standard battery offers an estimated range of 370 kilometers, while the available extended-range battery offers up to 480 kilometers. The placement of the motors also frees up a huge amount of storage space under the hood. To prevent you from having to worry about your range during a trip, the Lightning is equipped with FordPass Power My Trip, which takes the current charge level, the vehicle’s towing and payload status and the way you’re driving into account in order to precisely calculate the remaining kilometers and inform you of any recharge stations along the way.

The Ford F-150 Lightning: more connected than ever

The Ford F-150 Lightning will be continuously updated remotely. This will allow your pickup to improve its features, conveniences and capability so that you can work more efficiently on the road. Are you one of those people who constantly lose their keys? Your smartphone can function as a key, an option that will enable you to not only lock and unlock your doors but also open the windows, lower the tailgate and check your range—all remotely.

The rugged Lightning has undergone thousands of hours of virtual simulations to offer new owners a pickup that’s ready to confront even the most arduous of jobs. As a result, it’s ready to offer you a continually renewed driving experience.
