FORD TO REVEAL ALL-ELECTRIC F-150 LIGHTNING
FORD’S smartest, most innovative truck yet will be all-electric and called F-150 Lightning. The F-150 Lightning brings stunning innovation, technologies and capabilities to the F-series, America’s bestselling vehicle, combined with the power, payload and towing capability that is the hallmark of all Built Ford Tough trucks. “Every so often, a new vehicle comes along that disrupts the status quo and changes the game … Model T, Mustang, Prius, Model 3. Now comes the F-150 Lightning,” said Ford President and CEO Jim Farley. “America’s favorite vehicle for nearly half a century is going digital and fully electric. F-150 Lightning can power your home during an outage; it’s even quicker than the original F-150 Lightning performance truck, and it will constantly improve through over-theair updates.”
Added Farley: “The truck of the future will be built with quality and a commitment to sustainability by FORD-UAW workers at the Ford Rouge Complex—the cathedral of American manufacturing and our most advanced plant.”
Production of the F-150 Lightning begins next spring at the all-new Ford Rouge Electric Vehicle Center.
