Ford says the car can release power at up to 9.6kW speeds.įord is also letting drivers use their car as a "generator." In other words, users can plug into the car itself and utilize the power of the battery to get things done. In other words, keeping your truck plugged in means the power stored in the battery is accessible - either as a backup power source for your home, or to sell power back to the grid (if your provider offers this).

The car will also come with a 32-amp mobile charger as standard, which lets users plug into a wall outlet and trickle charge if a faster charger isn’t available.įord will also be selling the ' Charge Station Pro' home charger, which will offer the full 19.2kW charging speeds the truck can handle. The Ford F-150 also offers up to 19.2kW AC charging, which can fully recharge the car in around eight hours. The standard range model takes a bit longer with 41 miles of range in 10 minutes and needs 44 minutes to go from 15% to 80%. Rapid charging the extended range model can restore 54 miles of range in 10 minutes and can charge from 15% to 80% in 41 minutes. This isn’t a bad thing, since 350kW chargers are pretty darn rare, but it does put the car at a disadvantage on paper. Some high-end electric cars have started to offer 350kW charging speeds, the F-150 Lighting is limited to 150kW DC rapid charging. Unfortunately, Ford doesn’t appear to have revealed the size of those batteries just yet.

Well, thanks to a recent video, we now know how well Ford's latest EV will perform around tight corners. Meanwhile, the standard range model can carry up to 2,000 pounds of cargo, while the larger battery on the extended range model means it has a lower 1,800-pounds maximum.Īpart from the Biden test drive, we hadn't gotten much footage of the Lighting being pushed in a trach setting. The standard range F-150 will also be able to tow 7,700 pounds, while the extended range model can tow up to 10,000 pounds. It's close to the guess made by President Joe Biden, who estimated it was that the F-150 could hit 60 miles per hour in 4.3 seconds. While Ford hasn't revealed an official 0-60 time, it has promised that it will be somewhere in the mid-4 second range. The Ford F-150 Lighting is powered by two electric motors, which offers all wheel drive. (Image credit: Ford) Ford F-150 Lightning: Power and performance
