2025 Ford F-150 Lightning
The 2025 Ford F-150 Lightning is proof that electrification doesn't mean compromising on utility performance or comfort. This full-size truck combines exceptional capability with a fun driving experience, appealing to both workers and eco-conscious families. Its dimensions are impressive, and its capabilities are even more so. The Lightning can tow up to 10,000 pounds and carry a payload of 2,000 pounds while providing remarkable stability thanks to its adapted suspension, without sacrificing comfort.
Power
The 2025 Ford F-150 Lightning combines the iconic toughness of the F-150 with a 100% electric powertrain. With its two electric motors, it delivers an exceptional 580 horsepower and 775 lb-ft of torque, enabling rapid acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in under 4.5 seconds. This power also translates to spectacular range, with long-range versions capable of up to 515 kilometres between charges. Capable of absorbing up to 350 kW of power, the Lightning can recover 80% of its energy in just 41 minutes.
Technology
The Ford Lightning's well-designed, welcoming cockpit offers a host of technologies to enhance occupant comfort. A 15.5-inch central touchscreen powered by the SYNC 4A system makes it easy to control navigation, wireless connectivity with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and over-the-air updates. Compatibility with the FordPass app allows remote communication with the vehicle. Audiophiles will appreciate the optional 18-speaker Bang & Olufsen audio system, transforming the interior into a true concert hall.
Versatility
Designed to meet a variety of needs, the F-150 Lightning offers a spacious 400-litre front trunk. Fully sealed and lockable, this storage area is perfect for transporting items securely. Additionally, the integrated Pro Power Onboard generator can power various electrical equipment, from tools on a job site to appliances during outdoor activities. For those less familiar with towing, the Ford Lightning offers Pro Trailer Assist, a practical, user-friendly assistance for maneuvering when the truck is hitched to a trailer.
Safety
The 2025 Ford F-150 Lightning excels in safety with its state-of-the-art technologies. The Ford Co-Pilot360 suite includes systems like BlueCruise 1.3, which allows for hands-free driving on pre-mapped highways. However, drivers must still keep their eyes on the road as it is not autonomous driving. A comprehensive set of driver-assist features, such as emergency braking with pedestrian detection and blind-spot monitoring, also comes as standard equipment.
