Ford has once again outpaced the competition with the new 2023 F-150 Lightning. Those who were able to pre-order this full-sized pickup with its all-electric powertrain will surely be impressed with the comfort, power and silent operation the vehicle has to offer. Very similar in appearance to the conventional F-150, available exclusively to businesses in a Pro base version and available to all in XLT, Lariat and Platinum versions, this connected pickup is brimming with exceptional qualities.
Ford engineers ensured that the 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning wouldn’t be handicapped by the increased weight resulting from electrification of the model (which weighs more than 7,000 pounds without cargo). By reworking the chassis to integrate the batteries, modifying the independent rear suspension and positioning the two electric motors with one on each axle, they managed to prevent the rear end from jerking and bouncing on worn pavement.
Despite everything, the Lightning is highly responsive and spirited, thanks to its forceful motors, which distribute power to all four wheels. With the 98-kWh lithium-ion battery offering a standard range of 370 kilometers, the pickup can produce the equivalent of 452 horsepower and an incredible 775 pound-feet of torque. In the case of the 131-kWh battery offering an extended range of 515 km on a single charge, the power ascends to 580 hp, while torque remains the same. Of course, this range decreases significantly under extreme conditions or when hauling heavy loads.
The interior layout and options in the 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning are nearly identical to those found in the internal combustion versions of the F-150. The electronic equipment couldn’t be more satisfying, while the seats offer exceptional comfort. However, there are some notable specifics: the large front cargo space with a volume of 400 liters, the optional Pro Box Wall Charger, which can provide a full recharge in 8 hours, and the Ford Charge Pro Station, which can invert the current in order to power a home with electricity.
