According to overseas sources, the reservation began on October 26 last year, starting at $39,974, about 257,800 yuan for Ford's new generation of pure electric pickup truck F-150 Lightning, which will be officially delivered to owners this spring. This will also represent the world's most popular pickup truck model, officially entering the era of pure electric.
In terms of the basic configuration of pure electric F-150 Lightning, it is currently known that the new car is equipped with a four-wheel drive system as standard, and two battery packs are available, thanks to the inherently friendly characteristics of the girder structure body for the battery pack, its two battery pack volumes are as high as 98kWh and 131kWh, which have reached the most head performance of the current commercially available electric vehicles, and may have unexpected excellent performance for its actual mileage.
Sure enough, recently, in terms of the latest EPA operating range of the Ford F-150 Lightning announced by the EPA (United States Environmental Protection Agency), according to the size of the model and rim, at least 230 miles (about 370 kilometers) have been at least 230 miles (about 370 kilometers); and the longer endurance has reached 300 miles (about 483 kilometers) and 320 miles (about 515 kilometers) respectively.
Friends familiar with electric vehicles should be very clear that the EPA working conditions are almost the most stringent working range of the current commercially available electric vehicles, and almost the actual comprehensive working conditions have reached the real endurance performance of 1:1, and if it is used in the low-speed road conditions of the city, it may even be 1:1.X, that is, the actual endurance exceeds the endurance of the table.
However, the long mileage real endurance is not the biggest killer of Ford F-150 Lightning, compared to some competitive models are still in the simple "oil to electricity" approach, Ford will be the new car completely based on pure electric architecture to build, so creatively made the electric vehicle unique compartment, and because the pickup model itself is larger, from the current data, Ford F-150 Lightning's front trunk volume is not even worse than the trunk volume difference of some small SUVs. Coupled with the huge open cargo compartment of the pickup truck model, plus the external discharge function, a generation of camping multi-purpose divine vehicles has been born.
As for whether the new car will be introduced into the country in the future, there is no official information released yet. However, with reference to Tesla Cyberruck and other competitors will enter the country, we guess that the possibility of pure electric Ford F-150 Lightning entering domestic sales is still very large.
