This fully electric version of America's best-selling truck for the last 45 years offers some major benefits over gas-powered trucks. Innovative features like the Mega Power Frunk and the ability to power your home during an outage make the Lightning much more than just a work truck.
Whether you're looking to upgrade your work truck or daily driver, the Lightning brings the innovation and capability Ford trucks are known for into the electric era.

Performance and Range in Allendale
The Lightning delivers exhilarating electric performance with up to 580 horsepower and 775 pound-feet of instant torque. This enables zero-60 mph acceleration in just 4.5 seconds in the extended-range models. The standard battery provides up to 320 miles of range on a full charge, while the extended range battery can deliver up to 300 miles of range on the Platinum trim. That's plenty of range for daily commuting and weekend adventures without having to stop to charge.
With the available 80-amp Ford Charge Station Pro, the extended-range battery can add 54 miles of range per charging hour. Just plugging into a normal 120V outlet overnight can provide over 35 miles of range in the standard battery model. For those needing maximum range, the extended-range battery and Charge Station Pro can fully recharge the truck from 15 percent to 100 percent in around eight hours.
Work Capability in Hudsonville
The Lightning maintains the work truck capability Ford trucks are known for. It has a maximum towing capacity of up to 10,000 pounds when properly equipped, so you can confidently tow equipment, boats, RVs, and more. The standard 4x4 drivetrain provides traction and control on worksites. With up to 2.4 kilowatts of power available from the standard outlets in the Mega Power Frunk and cab, you can use the Lightning as a mobile generator to power tools, lights, and other equipment at remote work sites.
The Mega Power Frunk provides 14.1 cubic feet of lockable, weatherproof storage space complete with four electrical outlets and two USB ports. That's enough room to fit two carry-on bags - perfect for keeping your gear secure but accessible. There are also plenty of standard cargo tie-downs and lighting to secure a wide range of loads in the bed.
Cutting-Edge Technology
The Lightning brings high-tech features to match its modern electric powertrain. The huge 15.5-inch touchscreen provides control over every aspect of the truck, from navigation to charging status to music and more. You can check range, battery levels, and other EV metrics right on the screen or using the FordPass app. Over-the-air software updates ensure your Lightning is always improving by adding new capabilities.
Optional BlueCruise technology enables true hands-free driving on prequalified sections of divided highways called Hands-Free Blue Zones. The truck handles steering, braking, and speed adjustments automatically so you can relax. BlueCruise helps reduce driver fatigue on long road trips.
