Ford F-150 Lightning at Palm Coast Ford

The F-150 Lightning, Ford’s first electric truck, is a brand new model for Ford’s 2022 truck lineup. Although similar to the regular F-150 appearance-wise, the Lightning swaps the gas powered V6 and V8 engines for a pair of electric motors and a battery pack. The Standard Range battery pack delivers up to 230 miles per charge, while the Extended Range delivers up to 320 miles per charge. All wheel drive is standard on the F-150 Lightning, and is capable of towing up to 10,000 pounds.

Buyers will be able to charge their F-150 Lightnings at home via 110 and 220 volt outlets, but the truck is also capable of charging at public DC fast-charging stations. The truck can charge from 15 percent to 80 percent of battery capacity in 44 minutes. Ford also engineered the F-150 Lightning to serve as a backup generator and says a fully-charged truck can supply up to three days of electricity for the average household in the event of a power outage.

A 12 inch touchscreen infotainment system with Ford’s latest Sync 4 software is standard, but Lariat and Platinum models come with an even larger 15 inch display. Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, navigation, and a Wi-Fi hotspot, are all standard.

The Standard Range battery model packs 452 hp, while the Extended Range puts out a mighty 580 hp. Both versions of the F-150 Lightning still produce 775 lb-ft of torque.
