How the 2022 Ford Lightning Earns Its Spot in the Lineup

To earn a spot in the F150 lineup, the 2022 Ford Lightning has to be plenty tough and plenty capable. It does that by producing more torque than the F150 Raptor and handling bigger tows than the entry level F150.

Rather than be a one-size-fits-all, the F150 Lightning comes in Pro, XLT, Lariat and Platinum editions.  Furthermore, it has two battery ranges. One can go up to 230 miles while the other can go up to 300 miles.  Horsepower is rated at 426 or 563 while the high torque rate is universal.

How Does a Ford Electric Truck Reduce Costs

Adding to its competitiveness, the electric vehicle may qualify you for federal energy tax credits.  Furthermore, the special electric build will lower maintenance costs by about 40 percent over eight years. The pricetag on the F150 Lightning Pro is so low, especially with the tax credit, that it is competitive with many trucks of similar capability.  With so many reasons to go electric, it’s hard to think of a reason not to.

When you think about the fact that the typical truck’s fuel economy goes down when towing or carrying a heavy load, you start to realize just how much gas that a Ford electric truck can save!

This F150 is tough and sturdy. It can pull a load of 7,700 pounds with the regular battery or 10,000 pounds with the stronger battery.  Many businesses individuals will be able to do everything they need to do with tow ratings like that.  Payload is 1,500 pounds.

Plus, there’s a compartment under the hood of the truck.  This Mega Power Frunk can handle up to 400 pounds of gear or luggage. No other truck can do that.
