Ford launches its 100% electric "Lightning" F-Series pickup
- Like Tesla and its competitors GM and Stellantis, the American carmake Ford wishes to accelerate and amplify its strategy in the market for 100% electric vehicles, in Europe, China and the United States.
- After the launch of the Mustang Mach E last year, which shows a first step in this market, the carmaker has unveiled its F-150 Series pickup for the first time available with a 100% electric drive. It is to be noted that the F-150 is the lightest and most compact version of all the F Series versions.
- Ford also announced the upcoming launch of a 100% electric version of its US-produced Transit utility van.
- Ford expects 40% of its models sold worldwide in 2030 to be powered by plug-in hybrid or 100% electric powertrains. This could represent a volume of 1.5 million units by that time. However, Ford produced just 37,500 such vehicles in 2020, representing 0.9% of its global production last year.
