Ford F-150 Lightning
Ford’s electric pickup now has to contend with the new Chevrolet Silverado EV and Tesla Cybertruck, not to mention the Ram 1500 REV. These competitors are available with larger batteries and therefore provide longer range than the F-150 Lightning, which is rated at 386 km or 515 km depending on the configuration. The cabin is largely similar to that of the gas-powered F-150. Space is aplenty, the seats are comfortable and ride quality impresses drivers.
