If you're a pickup truck driver looking to embrace the possibilities of all-electric driving, it makes sense to see what the 2024 Ford F-150 Lightning competitors have to offer in the hopes of toppling a legend. The forthcoming 2024 F-150 Lightning excels not only in many important categories like electric range, horsepower, and charging performance but also in available features and cargo space. It's hard for the competition to keep up.
Introduced in 2022, the Ford F-150 Lightning is the electric variant of the beloved Ford F-150 pickup truck. Pairing the renowned durability of the Ford F-150 with cutting-edge technology makes for a beautiful creation.
Clement Ford has put together a quick comparison as you finalize your EV truck wish list. Let's take a more in-depth look at how the Ford F-150 Lightning measures up against rival electric pickup models.
The GMC HUMMER EV Pickup is available in three trims. The base-level model has two motors, sports up to 570 horsepower, and gets an EPA-estimated range of 311 miles1 on a full charge. Compare that to the forthcoming more affordable Ford F-150 Lightning LARIAT model that gets an EPA-estimated 320 miles of range2 and has 580 horsepower with the extended-range battery.
The current Rivian R1T is available with three AWD drive systems. Potential buyers have their choice between Dual-Motor AWD, Performance Dual-Motor AWD, or Quad-Motor AWD. Depending on how much you're willing to spend, the standard pack boasts an EPA-estimated starting range of 270 miles3 on a full charge. It also produces 533 horsepower and has 610 pound-feet of torque. In addition to edging the Rivian model out in terms of price and range, the Ford F-150 provides more cargo space and has only a slightly lower payload capacity than the much heavier Rivian R1T.
The Chevy Silverado EV is a brand-new electric pickup truck from Chevrolet. With their first attempt yet to be released, all the pertinent information to properly compare the specs of the truck to the impressive Ford F-150 is not out yet. Although the Chevy Silverado EV is expected to have a higher range than the F-150 Lightning, it doesn't have the payload capacity or horsepower of the new Ford F-150.
We're excited that you're ready to make the switch to electric. The Ford F-150 Lightning is available in several trims. The Flash trim is brand-new for 2024, supplementing the extended-range battery with a wealth of tech features, such as Ford BlueCruise 1.2, at a highly competitive price point.
Using 2023 for reference, the base-level model is equipped with two inboard motors for each axle, producing a torque of 775 pound-feet and enhanced payload capacity, while the XLT trim features a 12-inch touch screen and exclusive front lighting. On the LARIAT trim, you'll find a 15.5-inch touch screen loaded with capabilities. The available extended-range battery enhances performance and enables longer drives between charges. Finally, the Platinum trim has a B&O® Unleashed Sound System, a premium leather interior, and a 15.5-inch touch screen.If you're ready for an electric pickup truck, then we're confident that the 2024 Ford F-150 Lightning is right for you.
