Ford F150 Lightning

Ford unveiled a new high-performance electric truck ahead of the Ford Performance season launch event. Is this the Ford F-150 Lightning Raptor we’ve been waiting for?

Ford’s F-150 Lightning is the best-selling electric pickup in the US after a record fourth quarter. As demand continues to grow, Ford is adjusting 2024 F-150 Lightning prices and trim packages.

Ford’s F-150 Lightning is the top-selling electric truck in the US through November. As production at its Rouge EV plant ramps up, a new video gives us an inside look at how Ford builds its Lightning in the US.

Lightning electric pickup sales were up 113% last month, propelling Ford to a new EV sales record in November. Ford is now the second bestselling EV brand behind Tesla in the US.

CEO Jim Farley announced the Ford F-150 Lightning had its best-ever sales month, breaking the record in November.

Today we’ve learned that Ford Motor Company has reopened its order books to the next wave of F-150 Lightning reservation holders.

• Ford’s versatile E-Transit 126-mile electric sprinter/cargo/van platform began production from its Kansas City, Missouri plant. Deliveries begin in a few weeks. I drove it, but drive impressions have to wait.
• Ford is super high on its own supply of Telematics software but equally high on its new Salesforce partnership for software and services.
• I came to California to drive a Ford F-150 Lightning and I got two awesome days in Sonoma meeting Francis Ford Coppola, chatting with some great Ford engineers/execs, drinking some amazing wine, and driving an electric sprinter van (not in that order).

We learned a lot this week as Ford flew us out to Sonoma, CA, and took us to some winery businesses that would soon be using not only electric Ford Pro vehicles but would also be using its telematics software stack to manage everything about them.

Ford issued a warning to dealerships that are taking advantage of F150 Lightning reservation holders and asking for more money.
