2024 Ford F-150 Lightning: Revolutionizing Electric Pickup Truck Market

The 2024 Ford F-150 Lightning continues to set a high standard for the rest of the electric pickup truck market to follow.

There are five trims available for the Lightning, which makes it a truck with several options. Not only can you choose from five different trims, but there are two battery packs that give this pickup 240 and 320 miles of driving range, respectively. The larger battery pack also increased towing, horsepower, and torque to make this truck easy to drive.

Let’s take a look at what the 2024 Ford F-150 Lightning has for you.

What does every model have in common?

Regardless of the trim, this electric Ford pickup comes at a crew cab truck with standard AWD and a 5.5-foot bed. This means all models have a dual-motor setup to drive all four wheels. In addition to all models using the same build, this Ford truck qualifies for the $7,500 federal EV tax credit.

More standard equipment for 2024

There’s a new Flash trim that brings an incredible package of upgraded tech items to the F-150 Lightning. The top-line Platinum model receives a Black Package option, which gives this truck black exterior elements to give it that dark look you want to enjoy. The Black Package option is limited to only 2,000 units.
