All-Electric Ford F-150 Lightning

The Truck of the Future Is Here: All-Electric Ford F-150 Lightning





 

All-Electric Power to Wow, More Connected Technology, Elevated Drive Experience and Built Ford Tough Capability

 

Super Powers Only Electric Can Deliver

F-Series, America’s best-selling truck for 44 years1 , charges into the future with the F-150 Lightning, elevated by all the advantages of electrification and packed with connected technology. F-150 Lighting is a powerhouse that delivers a targeted 563 horsepower and 775 lb.-ft. of torque – the most torque of any F-150 ever – an exhilarating drive, a high-tech frunk, and the ability to power your home if needed

 

Advanced Tech Now – To Guide You Into the Future

F-150 Lightning offers an ingenious array of connected, intelligent features that improve over time via wireless software updates; FordPass app provides seamless access to charging stations and remote vehicle controls; available BlueCruise offers true hands-free driving on the highway, while enhanced Pro Power Onboard powers jobsites or campsites

 

No Question: Built Ford Tough Comes Standard

Powered by dual in-board motors and with standard 4x4, F-150 Lightning can take on rough terrain with Built Ford Tough durability and capability. Along with a high-strength, military-grade aluminum alloy body, a new independent rear suspension delivers improved ride comfort, while an all-new frame uses the strongest steel ever put in an F-150 frame and supports a maximum 2,000-pound payload and up to 10,000-pound towing capacity

 

 

DEARBORN, Mich., May 19, 2021 – The truck of the future is here. The F-150 Lightning is the smartest, most innovative truck Ford has ever built. From near instant torque to intelligent towing, seamless connectivity to software updates, plus power for your home, a power frunk and the largest digital screen on any full-size truck sold today – F-150 Lightning is a driving and ownership experience unlike any other.

 

F-150 Lightning will roll off the lines next year at a new high-tech factory using sustainable manufacturing practices at Ford’s storied Rouge complex in Dearborn just outside Detroit. 

 

"For both Ford and the American auto industry, F-150 Lightning represents a defining moment as we progress toward a zero-emissions, digitally connected future,” said Bill Ford, executive chair, Ford Motor Company. “F-Series is America’s best-selling truck for 44 years, the backbone of work across the country, and a trusted icon for generations of customers. Now we are revolutionizing it for a new generation.”

 

F-150 Lightning is a pillar of the company’s $22 billion global electric vehicle plan to lead electrification in areas of strength. Ford is starting with zero-emissions versions of its most popular and best-loved franchises – Mustang, Transit and F-150 – with much more to come in the years ahead.

 

Wickedly quick off the mark, quiet and smooth, F-150 Lightning delivers a new experience for truck owners at a starting price on par with today’s similarly configured F-150 trucks. The electric platform unlocks new capabilities as well – such as enough energy to power an entire home and a massive lockable frunk with power and charging capabilities to spare. Ford will deploy standard over-the-air software updates – called Ford Power-Ups – to improve the technology experience, add new features and fix issues without trips to the dealership. All this and more backed by proven Built Ford Tough F-Series durability and capability and the largest public charging network in North America2 – starting at $39,974 MSRP3 before any federal or state tax credits.

 

 The F-150 Lightning is a massive moment for our Ford team. America’s No. 1 auto brand is going zero emissions with America’s favorite vehicle. It’s quicker than a Raptor, with standard 4x4 and independent rear suspension; a power frunk, enough juice to run your house for three days or power an awesome tailgate; and it will forever improve with over-the-air updates,” said Ford President and CEO Jim Farley. “It will be built at the Rouge factory, where Henry Ford changed the world and my grandfather punched in every day. F-150 Lightning represents all that our country can do when we push for progress.”

 

F-150 Lightning targets 563 horsepower, 775 lb.-ft. of near instantaneous torque4 – more than any F-150 ever – and a 0-60 mph time in the mid-4-second range when equipped with an extended-range battery, based on typical industry methodology. F-150 Lightning targets a maximum 2,000 pounds of payload in the standard-range model with 18-inch wheels, and a maximum 10,000 pounds of available towing capacity on XLT and Lariat trucks with the extended-range battery and Max Trailer Tow Package. The low center of gravity brings even more confident handling whether traveling along rain-slicked roads or through sand.

 

“We’re not here to make an electric truck for the few – Ford is committed to building one that solves real problems for real people,” said Kumar Galhotra, Ford president, Americas and International Markets Group, Ford Motor Company. “F-150 Lightning delivers everything we’ve said electric vehicles can offer, plus the capability expected from a Built Ford Tough truck – not just near instant torque but powerful towing and hauling customers can depend on.”

 

Smart, Connected – And Better Over Time

Packed with intelligent features, F-150 Lightning epitomizes how Ford combines advanced digital technologies with proven engineering know-how to create a truck that’s even smarter and more productive. As part of available Ford Co-Pilot360™ technology, BlueCruise allows for true hands-free driving on more than 100,000 miles of pre-qualified divided highways in the U.S. and Canada – with more Hands-Free Blue Zones to come in the future5

 

Another example is available Onboard Scales, which uses the truck’s sensors to estimate payload and tell customers how much they’re hauling. And since payload can impact range, Onboard Scales is integrated with Intelligent Range to help ensure F-150 Lightning gives an accurate estimate of how far you can go. F-150 Lightning debuts available Pro Trailer Hitch Assist, which automatically controls steering, throttle and brake inputs to make hitching trailers even easier.

 

Also making its F-Series debut on select vehicles is available Phone As A Key. When activated, this allows customers to lock, unlock and start their truck without taking their phone out of their pocket or using a key fob.

 

All these features and more can get even better over time with Ford Power-Up software updates. These can help improve the performance of F-150 Lightning, deliver quality upgrades, update existing features and add all-new functions and capabilities. The majority of updates will be completed in under two minutes and whenever the customer chooses6.

 

Advanced Digital Experience

Making its truck debut on F-150 Lightning in the Lariat and Platinum series is SYNC ® 4A – a sleek, modern interface supported by a 15.5-inch touch screen and designed to adapt to driver behavior. SYNC 4A employs natural voice control, cloud-connected navigation and wireless access to your favorite services: Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, integrated Amazon Alexa and SYNC AppLink apps. 

 

Elevating the digital experience even further is the 12-inch instrument cluster, featuring a customizable interface that instills confidence by naturally surfacing key information. Animated graphics smoothly relay how the vehicle is performing in hands-free highway driving mode or how well you’re bringing power back to your vehicle through regenerative braking, seamlessly providing relevant information as needed.

 

“It really is the smartest F-150 we’ve ever made.” said Darren Palmer, general manager, Battery Electric Vehicles, Ford Motor Company. “F-150 Lightning offers an immersive touch screen, giving our customers all the info they want in an instant – a real-time view of where they’re going, what they’re hauling or how much real-world range they’ve got banked. And with Ford Power-Up software updates, the experience is only going to get better.”











Revolutionary Power At Home

Debuting on F-150 Lightning is available Ford Intelligent Backup Power, turning your truck into the ultimate power source for your home. With the ability to offload 9.6 kW of power, Ford Intelligent Backup Power keeps the lights on during an outage while providing security by powering home appliances, security systems and more.

 

“Whether sheltering during a storm or trying to stay safe in a heat wave, customers can now use their truck to give themselves power when they need it most,” said Ryan O’Gorman, electric vehicle manager, Strategic Partnerships. “F-150 Lightning is built for seamless transitions between charging your vehicle and powering your house when needed – and Ford is the first in the U.S. to offer this capability on an electric truck.”

 

With Ford Intelligent Backup Power, enabled by the available 80-amp Ford Charge Station Pro and home management system Ford can help install, F-150 Lightning automatically kicks in to power your house. Once power is restored, the truck automatically reverts to charging its battery. Based on an average 30kWh of use per day, F-150 Lightning with extended-range battery provides full-home power for up to three days, or as long as 10 days if power is rationed, with results varying based on energy usage.

 

In the future, Ford will introduce Ford Intelligent Power, which can use the truck to power homes during high-cost, peak-energy hours while taking advantage of low-cost overnight rates to charge the vehicle in time for your morning drive. This can help save money on electricity that powers your vehicle and home while also taking pressure off the grid in peak usage times.

 

Ford is also teaming up with the nation's leading solar company, Sunrun, to facilitate easy installation of the 80-amp Ford Charge Station Pro and home integration system. Through this collaboration, customers will also have the opportunity to install solar energy on their home, enabling them to power their household with clean, affordable energy and charge their F-150 Lightning with the power of the sun.

 

Stay Plugged in on the Road

Power capability is not limited to the home, either. With enhanced Pro Power Onboard, customers can take advantage of built-in electrical outlets to directly power a variety of tools, electronics and appliances away from home. Standard on base trims is 2.4 kilowatts of power with the option for more, while Lariat and Platinum series come standard with 9.6 kilowatts of power – a combination of up to 2.4 kilowatts available through the frunk and up to 7.2 kilowatts through outlets in the cab and bed. 

 

Smart features make power management easier than ever. Customers receive a FordPass notification if their truck’s battery falls below one-third of its total range, and they can even set the truck to stop using Pro Power Onboard if the battery level approaches the distance to the nearest charging station.

 

All these capabilities are possible thanks to the truck’s powerful next-generation lithium-ion battery. F-150 Lightning offers two options: a standard-range battery targeting 230 miles of EPA-estimated range and an extended-range battery targeting 300 miles of EPA-estimated range7.

 

Front-Loaded

Under the hood is a versatile, high-tech mega power frunk offering dedicated storage space that’s secure, lockable and easily accessible by a powered open and close system. This spacious area targets 400 liters of volume and 400 pounds of payload – enough to stow two carry-on bags and one checked bag, or two sets of golf clubs.

 

Cleverly designed with bumper-height clearance, this water-resistant space comes equipped with four electrical outlets, two USB chargers and a drainable floor that can double as a food and beverage container. It can easily power a mobile work site or an epic tailgate. With 2.4 kilowatts of power, there’s enough capability to plug in power tools, TVs, laptops, speakers, crock pots and more.

 

“The words ‘front trunk’ don’t even begin to describe all the innovation and capability Ford packed into this high-powered space,” said Nancy Reppenhagen, supervisor, Global Feature Process. “It will have customers rethinking what their truck is capable of – and enable the kinds of experiences they never would have thought possible before.”

 

Built Ford Tough Comes Standard

F-150 Lightning goes through the same tortuous Built Ford Tough testing as all F-Series trucks. The military-grade aluminum alloy body and upgraded frame support the advanced battery, while the first F-Series independent rear suspension and low center of gravity help improve isolation from the road, provide a more stable ride and reduce steering roll – while maintaining the durability and reliability expected from F-150.

 

“Whether they’re hauling a bed full of firewood through snow or towing a trailer on a road trip, customers need to be able to rely on their truck’s performance,” said Linda Zhang, chief engineer, F-150 Lightning. “This all-electric truck has been engineered with dual in-board motors which means it can take on rough terrain. Our team of engineers has run the same arduous test regime our F-150 customers have learned to expect from Ford.”

 

F-150 Lightning boasts excellent off-road performance, with a 4x4 system featuring four selectable drive modes: Normal, Sport, Off Road and Tow/Haul. Rugged underbody protection keeps the battery safe, with metal skid plates shielding both the battery and inboard motors from tough terrain. The battery itself is secured inside waterproof casing surrounded by crash-absorption protection and has been tested at temperatures as extreme as minus 40 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure Lightning can perform when needed most.

 

Rigorous endurance testing included running the truck through Iowa Hill, Calif., where it towed massive trailers for long durations up and down steep inclines. As a result, F-150 Lightning sports a state-of-the-art liquid cooling system and powertrain layout that expertly manages heat distribution across the vehicle. Improved cooling systems and components ensure the truck can thrive even in the toughest driving ordeals. 

 

Going Electric, Made Easy

Ford has your back when it comes to charging. Ford is the only automaker to offer an 80-amp charge station as standard equipment, helping customers easily charge an extended-range truck at home. This system takes advantage of the only dual onboard charging system on an electric truck in the industry for even faster home charging. With this, F-150 Lightning adds an average range of 30 miles per charging hour, fully charging an extended-range truck from 15-100 percent in about eight hours8.

 

On the road, customers have seamless access to North America’s largest public charging network through FordPass, with more than 63,000 charging plugs and growing across the U.S. On a 150-kilowatt DC fast charger, extended-range F-150 Lightning is targeted to get up to 54 miles of range in 10 minutes and charge from 15-80 percent in about 41 minutes8.

 

F-150 Lightning takes the guesswork out of when and where to re-charge with FordPass Power My Trip, which identifies charging routes before even starting your journey. In the truck, Intelligent Range accurately calculates range while factoring in weather, traffic, payload, towing weights and more. Cloud-connected navigation on SYNC 4 also identifies public charging locations and prompts owners to charge at convenient points on each drive. 

 

Distinctive, High-Tech Design

F-150 Lightning is undeniably an F-Series truck. Building on the strength of the existing F-150 design DNA, Ford created a truck that epitomizes the toughness people love while adding a distinctly modern, high-tech flair. Key elements include available signature LED light bars that run across the front and rear, plus three new grille designs that bring a bold new look to a familiar face while maintaining Built Ford Tough authenticity. 

 

F-150 Lightning is the most aerodynamic F-150 ever 9, with improvements like newly shaped running boards, a sculpted hood to reduce drag, and grilles that replace air intake holes with a smoother, textured surface. Even more functional design delivers available enhanced 360-degree Zone Lighting, which can light up a specific zone or the entire area around the vehicle.

 

And F-150 Lightning makes no compromises on space, maintaining the same cab and bed dimensions as its gas counterpart, so it remains capable of accommodating thousands of accessories already available. The available fold-out Interior Work Surface makes working inside the vehicle even easier and more productive, while available Max Recline Seats offer nearly 180-degrees of recline to help customers recharge as needed.

 

Proudly assembled in America, F-150 Lightning will make use of the new, state-of-the-art Rouge Electric Vehicle Center – which will also be a zero-waste-to-landfill site. Ford is investing $700 million into the historic Rouge Complex, adding 500 new jobs and employing advanced sustainable manufacturing technology to build the truck as part of its commitment to becoming carbon neutral by 2050.

 

Arriving in Spring 2022, F-150 Lightning will be available in four series and two battery options at more than 2,300 EV-certified Ford dealers across the country, with the option for fleet customers to access Ford’s complete ecosystem of connected data and telematics services via Ford Commercial Solutions.

  • La nuova versione del pick-up, protagonista di un avventuroso film d’azione The Good, The Bad and the Bad-RSE, realizzato in puro stile Spaghetti Western, mostra al meglio il suo carattere indomito e le sue abilità in off-road 

 

  • Il Ranger Raptor Special Edition sarà disponibile presso i concessionari Ford europei dal prossimo ottobre 2021, unendosi alle già apprezzate declinazioni Stormtrak e Wolftrak.

 

DUNTON, Regno Unito, 25 maggio 2021 - Il Ranger Raptor, la declinazione Ford Performance del pick-up best seller dell’Ovale Blu, da oggi sarà ancora più esclusiva, nella nuova versione Special Edition.

 

Realizzato in un mumero limitato di esemplari per garantirne l’esclusività, il nuovo Ranger Raptor Special Edition accentua ulteriormente, in chiave sportiva, gli imponenti esterni del pick-up, abbinandoli a interni premium con dettagli di stile aggiuntivi tra cui le esclusive finiture distintive in colore rosso.

 

Il modello, in edizione limitata, è tra i protagonisti di “ The Good, the Bad and the Bad-RSE ” , un nuovo film d'azione, ispirato al genere western, distribuito, oggi, da Ford. Il film mostra lo stile ancora più estremo e le capacità ad alta velocità in scenari off-road di Ranger Raptor Special Edition, insieme ad altri modelli Ranger distintivi tra cui le nuove versioni Wolftrak e Stormtrak.

 

Sviluppato da Ford Performance, il Ranger Raptor presenta un telaio ultra resistente, sospensioni e pneumatici tarati su misura abbbinati a un propulsore diesel EcoBlue ad alte prestazioni, pensato per chi ama uno stile di vita outdoor e desidera un mezzo in grado di vincere le sfide lavorative più difficili.

 

La nuova edizione speciale del Ranger Raptor aggiunge uno stile ancora più estremo al nostro imponente pick-up, con dettagli esclusivi per gli esterni e accorgimenti dedicati per gli interni, che lo rendono ancora più distintivo e desiderabile”, ha commentato Stefan Muenzinger, Manager, Ford Performance, Ford of Europe. “ Renderlo protagonista di un film Spaghetti Western è il modo perfetto per mostrare lo stile e le caratteristiche off-road del Ranger Raptor ”.

 

Il Ranger Raptor Special Edition sarà disponibile presso i concessionari Ford in Europa da ottobre di quest’anno.

 

Presenza su strada da capogiro

Caratterizzato da una scelta di colori audaci per le finiture degli esterni che comprendolo il Performance Blue , il Conquer Grey e il Frozen White , la nuova edizione speciale del Ranger Raptor aggiunge due stripes da corsa nere opachi - bordati con linee rosse a contrasto - al cofano, al tetto, ai lati inferiori della carrozzeria, che enfatizzano ulteriormente il carattere ad alte prestazioni del pick-up.

 

A complemento deglistripes , i ganci di traino anteriori sono rifiniti in rosso mentre i passaruota, i paraurti anteriore e posteriore, le maniglie delle porte e la tipica griglia in rilievo Ford presentano una finitura nera opaca per creare un aspetto ancora più imponente rispetto agli esterni della versione standard.

 

All’interno della doppia cabina del Ranger Raptor Special Edition, una maggiore sensazione di sportività viene garantita dalle cuciture rosse per il volante, pannello strumenti e interno delle portiere. I sedili in pelle high-grain, di serie, sono stati progettati per essere confortevoli e di supporto al guidatore sia che decida di affrontare percorsi più estremi sia nel caso di percorsi stradali ‘più ordinari’, mentre il cruscotto nero opaco aggiunge ulteriore tocco di esclusività.

 

Il modello Special Edition conserva l’esclusivo telaio Ford Performance del Ranger Raptor. Ottimizzato per la guida in off-road alle alte velocità, dove le leggi e le condizioni stradali lo permettono, il Ranger Raptor presenta una carreggiata più larga di 150 mm e un’altezza da terra maggiore di 51 mm rispetto al Ranger XLT.

Gli pneumatici All-terrain General Grabber AT3 offrono la massima aderenza anche su superfici sconnesse.

 

Il Ranger Raptor Special Edition monta la versione Bi-turbo del motore diesel EcoBlue 2.0, in grado di sprigionare 213 CV e 500 Nm di coppia (1 ), abbinata al cambio automatico a 10 rapporti che condivide con la Ford Mustang. Il Ranger Raptor consente di scegliere tra sei modalità di guida diverse, grazie alla tecnologia Terrain Management System, per affrontare una vasta gamma di scenari di guida. Due sono le modalità on road (normal e sport) e quattro quelle off-road per i terreni più svariati (erba, neve, fango, sabbia e roccia), tra le quali spicca la modalità Baja, dedicata alla famosa gara di rally Baja 1.000, attraverso la penisola messicana della Baja California, uno degli eventi fuoristrada più prestigiosi al mondo.

 

Nel nuovo film Ford The Good, the Bad and the Bad-RSE , il Raptor Special Edition sfugge ai banditi in una città in stile vecchio West aiutato da altri modelli di Ranger. Caratterizzato da molteplici riferimenti agli iconici film western, il video è stato girato su un set in puro stile Spaghetti Western ambientato in Spagna e segue le incredibili prodezze del video di lancio, che da allora è stato visualizzato oltre cinque milioni di volte.

Fordwich

Fordwich, la città più piccola del Regno Unito, diventa completamente elettrica con il lancio di Mustang Mach-E


Londra, UK, 21 maggio 2021
 - Ford of Britain sta “sfidando” la popolazione di Fordwich, la città più piccola del Regno Unito, a passare all’elettrico con il lancio di Mustang Mach-E, il SUV elettrico dell’Ovale Blu, dopo che una ricerca (1) ha mostrato come la maggioranza di coloro che abitano nelle aree rurali (82%), nelle piccole cittadine (79%) e nei paesi (76%) non si sentirebbero sicuri nell’acquistare un’auto elettrica come loro prossimo veicolo, se il divieto di automobili a benzina e diesel venisse dichiarato la prossima settimana.

 

Da oggi fino a domenica, tutti i 380 residenti dI Fordwich, - mai nome fu più appropriato -  saranno tra i primi a provare Mustang Mach-E prendendo parte a un esclusivo test drive, della durata di tre giorni, che si svolgerà nella campagna del Kent.

 

Inoltre, altri highlight della ricerca tratti dal report sui consumatori del Go Electric di Ford, rivelano una notevole mancanza di fiducia e di informazioni sui veicoli elettrici, in particolare nelle aree rurali e nelle piccole città come Fordwich. Solo il 55% di coloro che vivono in piccole città, villaggi/paesi e in campagna ritiene di avere informazioni sufficienti per prendere una decisione informata sull’acquisto di un veicolo elettrico rispetto all’85% di coloro che vivono in città, aree urbane e metropoli.

Con il passaggio all’elettrificazione sempre più imminente, Ford riconosce la necessità di accompagnare i consumatori in un nuovo percorso completamente elettrico e spera di ispirare fiducia mettendo al volante di Mustang Mach-E gli abitanti di Fordwich affinché possano provarla da soli.

 

Per incoraggiare i residenti di Fordwich a passare all’elettrico sul lungo periodo, l’Ovale Blu ha creato anche una collaborazione con British Gas per installare un punto di ricarica pubblico in città. La ricarica è spesso citata come una delle preoccupazioni maggiori, un vero e proprio ostacolo per l’acquisto di un veicolo elettrico, soprattutto per coloro che vivono nei piccoli centri (63%) e in campagna (74%) che affermano di non avere a diposizione abbastanza stazioni di ricarica.

 

Il punto di ricarica sarà situato presso il The Fordwich Arms, un pub locale, e sarà disponibile per i residenti da oggi.

 

Lisa Brankin, Managing Director, Ford of Britain and Ireland, ha dichiarato: “ Siamo incredibilmente entusiasti di presentare Mustang Mach-E. Ford si impegna ad accompagnare i clienti attuali e futuri verso un domani completamente elettrico, supportandoli in questo viaggio. Nei prossimi giorni, vogliamo mostrare come anche la più piccola città possa tranquillamente passare all’elettrico!”

 

Philip Lewis, consigliere locale e Sindaco di Fordwich ha aggiunto: “Che modo fantastico per convincere le persone a provare un’auto elettrica. Siamo così orgogliosi della nostra città e la sostenibilità è qualcosa di molto importante per noi, quindi, eravamo ansiosi di vedere quanto sarebbe stato semplice passare a un veicolo più rispettoso dell’ambiente. È bello vedere così tante persone iscritte nei prossimi giorni e siamo entusiasti di avere un punto di ricarica locale installato per uso pubblico a lungo termine”.
