Is the Ford F-150 Lightning going to make EV's popular?

Is the Ford F-150 Lightning going to make EV's popular?

Here at RokBlokz, we get fired up about new vehicle innovations, and the Ford Lightning is one of the most exciting trucks to hit the EV market. Ford went all in on electrifying the F-150, and they didn’t cut corners. And there are a ton of awesome Ford Lightning accessories on the market. This truck is packed with features, tech, and capability—whether you’re hauling, off-roading, or just enjoying the ride.

The Ford Lightning might just set the standard for all future EV trucks. Some might even say it offers more tech and versatility than the Cybertruck. One of its most impressive features? If your home loses power, the Lightning can serve as a backup generator, supplying electricity for up to three days—or up to ten days with careful energy use. Ford has marketed this feature heavily for contractors and work sites, but the potential goes beyond that. Search and rescue teams could rely on this truck for on-site power, and weekend warriors can run a full campsite with its multiple bed-mounted outlets. Whether you're tailgating or grilling at the campsite, the Lightning makes sure you're powered up and ready to roll. Stay connected with real Ford Lightning owners and explore the latest discussions in the forums.

Built for Any Condition

The Ford Lightning comes with four drive modes—Sport, Normal, Tow-Haul, and Off-Road—so you can adapt to any situation.

  • Sport Mode sharpens throttle response and stiffens steering for a more engaging drive.

  • Tow-Haul Mode lets you carry a 2,000-pound payload and tow up to 10,000 pounds when equipped with the extended-range battery and Maximum Trailer Tow Package. Ford's Pro Trailer Backup Assist and Pro Trailer Hitch Assist make hooking up a trailer easier than ever.

  • Off-Road Mode adjusts pedal mapping for smoother, more controlled power delivery, helping prevent wheel spin in rugged conditions.

Some skeptics wonder how well the Lightning’s electric components will hold up on the trails. Ford thought ahead—its battery pack is housed in a waterproof casing with a reinforced exoskeleton and a skid plate for underbody protection. This means you can take on rough terrain without worrying about damaging critical components.

Power and Performance

The Ford Lightning doesn’t just compete with gas-powered trucks—it beats them in some areas. The extended-range battery delivers 563 horsepower—113 more than the 2020 Ford Raptor. Peak torque? A jaw-dropping 775 lb-ft, available instantly thanks to its front and rear electric motors. This thing can launch from 0-60 in just 4.5 seconds, putting it right up there with some performance cars. The AWD system ensures all that power translates to serious capability, whether you're on pavement or dirt.
