This is the Ford F150 Lightning - an all-electric version of Ford’s iconic pick-up truck!
It may look pretty similar to the normal F150, however there are some key changes to set it apart from its petrol-powered stablemate.
Aside from the plethora of Lightning badges around the truck, you can get a full-width light bar at the front which gives it real presence on the road. You also get a blanked out grille finished in gloss black and a light bar at the back.
The changes are obviously far more than just aesthetic though, as the big V8 engine has been chucked away in favour of an electric drivetrain. You get two motors, one on each axle, providing all-wheel-drive.
As standard, this truck has a 98kWh battery with 452hp and 240 miles of range. If that's not enough for you, then you can upgrade to the 131kWh battery, giving you 583hp and 320 miles of range.
The Ford F150 Lightning starts from just under £41,000, however the range-topping Platinum version we have here will set you back close to £90,000. But is it worth it? You’ll have to stick with the video to find out. "

this is one of those moments where i am questioning the work behind these videos... this is not a new feature, how does he not know it?
@@jaroslavzaruba2765 it is not a thing off usa
@@burackbb the 2007 F150 lightning from Ford Racing Offroad still better than this 2022.
fancy, now they can steal the whole car not just the valuables inside.
For the 10% of truck owners here in the U.S. who actually tow and haul for distance, the Lightning isn’t the best. Electric vehicles are at a disadvantage for payload and freeway cruising, compared to gas engines with overdrive gears, which per gram of energy are more mechanically efficient at freeway speeds, *and* hauling.
However the majority of truck owners here rarely if-ever, use the utility, tow, or go off-road. This is perfect for the majority of American truck owners
Perfect also for the fan of FORD RACING OFFROAD.
As a European that lives in the states I approve this message.
Not correct at all, range in terms of bettery capacity and technology is the current limit but no gas power engine will ever compare to electric motor torque which is directly link to it pulling power. Must electric trucks has one gear ratio compare to the many needed by gas engines to do same work. I believe the current problems with gearbox on electric trucks is the loss in efficiency in terms of bettery and the fact the electric trucks will need beefier gearbox and new clutch technology to handle the instant torque they produce. There is a reason the biggest motors in the world are electric motors power by gas engines substations.
As a Non Aussie, i approve this

@@ismaelcarrillo3956 for me, this feature is most useful when going to the beach, gym or pool. I usually leave everything in the car, including the phone and lock/unlock with a keypad. I really don't get why car manufacturers won't make fingerprint readers instead of keys or weird keypads though
@@jimsteinway695 what app is that anyway??
The keypad is mainly to lock your car keys inside the vehicle. I think that actually comes in handy sometimes

Hi Matt. Great review as always. One feature you didn't mention which is a major benefit to owners - the ability to use the battery in the F150 to power your home in an emergency! It is essentially your own power station sitting in your garage. A brilliant feature that is highly convenient and could actually save lives. Very few electrical vehicles have this feature (including Tesla's).
there shit since the ceo screwed his workers, big quality and reliability problems they can't sell anymore so many recalls on f150
Requires about $7000-$8000 to install the home integration system for that. Ford has it contracted through Sunrun and you can only use them. Which is why none of the other car manufacturers do it. The take rate would be extremely low.
It's not a major benefit, don't be a ghoul
we dont have that kind of problems in europa that is why he didnt mention it
@@JFGGG13 Europe simply charges 4x what Americans pay for electricity. So even during summer heatwaves, they’re reluctant to turn on the A/C. Most homes don’t even have A/C. But Austria, Spain, and Switzerland have started warning their citizens of potential future outages in 2021. In the U.S. most outages happen in rural areas where’s it takes a while to restore a downed power line or California where they underproduce in the summer. I’ve never been without power for more than a few hours for my whole life, that was due to an exploded transformer in front of the house.
The number pad is not an annoying thing it's super useful & you'll find yourself wondering why it's not standard for more brands to have after you've lived with it for a bit.
How is it useful? Unless you want to leave your key in the truck at all times, it's hard to see a use case for it. It is also ugly as the gates of hell, but i guess that's in theme with the rest of the truck.
@@bogdanrus9402 Throw your key in the truck, lock it and head out to the water.
@@bogdanrus9402 I had the number pad thing on my 91 lincoln and it was useful when i locked my keys in the car by accident 😅i can also see it being useful if you were to go swimming/kayaking or something

Kudos to you Matt!!
I am not American and not a fan of trucks, but this truck has so many great features that I fully appreciate why someone living in a remote countryside/mountain area would be interested in it. Really impressive 🤩
There is no shortlisting it. This begins at 45k$, it is half the starting price of a Rivian or an Hummer. Most F150s are mid-range, around 55k. It is still at least 25k less than its "competitors". This truck is a no-brainer, of course you should go right ahead and buy it.
Only problem is delivery will take years😔
That toy will cause a nuke plant meltdown if used like real pickups that haul heavy loads and pull heavy trailers. Spending $50,000 to get to work and haul groceries home from Wal-Mart is ridiculous.
@@roaddog7542 Most trucks are sold exactly for that Walmart runs. A tiny fraction of them are actually work trucks, or even hauling shit. And at 45k, it is one of the most affordable electric cars in the market, especially if you put into account its capability and equipement level.
I'm still waiting on mine
begins at 45k,
Adjusted price on market 60k.
No thanks!
I really love the coin cutaway ! It'll help me a lot if I need spare changes or to keep it away from scattering around the truck 😂
Why not get a jar and put in your center console? Those coin holders only hold like 5 of each coin. After it’s full, you just gonna throw them around the cab anyways
@@timhebert2299 I do have a jar to keep my changes but sometimes it's good to have something that came right out from the OEM right ? 😅
I have pockets !
I think this is a thing in North American vehicles due to toll roads where you pull up to a toll booth and throw change into a basket that feeds a coin counter
Just a throwback to the days of toll booths. Everything is transponder based these days.
This is the truck review that I've been waiting for more than a year!!!
They keypad is awesome. You can hide your key in the truck when swimming or something.
Not sure you can since it's a proximity key...if it's near the vehicle you can unlock it...and inside the vehicle is near the vehicle in my opinion 🤷♂️

You should add slalom or moose tests to these videos! I think it would be interesting to see the handling.

@@noneofyourbusiness5433 lmaooo
@@noneofyourbusiness5433 no a moose will still obliterate this truck lol
I come up to downed trees blocking the entire road a lot more often than I have seen moose in the road, and I lived in moose country for half my life. If you live anywhere that has moose you want the bottom of your windshield to be as close to 6' off the ground as possible. Much lower and you just take out the legs and have 1,500 lbs of deer coming across your hood.
If you do come across one and manage to stop, make sure that you honk your horn and flash your lights. They love that.
This was awesome lol. I always love watching our UK friends talk about pick up trucks. Here in Northern Alberta Canada it seems like 80 percent of the vehicles on the road are full size pick ups. We love our trucks. Great Video!
I think this is perhaps the most significant electric vehicle for sale in America. The F150 has been the number one selling vehicle in America for years. ford in their wisdom decided to make the electric variant just like the regular one. This is not going to convert any tow haulers But it will create a completely new segment of buyers for Ford. People who have never even considered a truck, Like me, also people who would have never considered an electric anything. The spacious luxury car interior. Its ability to carry almost anything. the bonus covered storage in the front. Ford answered questions with this truck that no one had even asked yet. The other 2 available options may be more dynamic but they will never be as everyday approachable And familiar as a Ford pick up.
No matter what city Mat is in, he somehow always finds the best place to film his videos. I love that .....
there is no way for you to know but ok
@@jaroslavzaruba2765 the F150 '07 in FORD RACING OFFROAD still better than this 2022 version technically.

He didn't even mention what I think is the coolest feature: if you lose power at your home you can power your home from the Lightning for up to two days on a full charge.

@@typhoon-7 Most truck owners dont actually use them for anything but normal driving, maybe towing once or twice a year.
the keypad isn't for "lost keys" its for locking the keys and other belongings inside the vehicle so you don't have to worry about them being stolen by leaving them unattended.
But thieves can get in anyways there's a reason why Ford's where I live are one of the most stolen vehicles that pad is wireless with a scanner I can get in that Ford easier than most especially if I wait for you to punch in that code 😎
14:20 lol this bell sounds EXACTLY like For whom the bell tolls
and Matt noticed too!
Many test here in the US picked the F150. Rivin is more like a small truck than a full size.
For such a heavy vehicle, 40m stopping distance from 60mph is actually pretty impressive. Highway Code would have you believe that a 'normal' car would take 55m. I'd be interested to find out if there are any cars tested by CarWow over the past say 5 years have taken anywhere close to that distance to stop. Mat's 911 Turbo S takes only 29m - that's 26m less than quoted in the Highway Code!
In usa it’s generally hit and run… so better to have crap brakes
@@arjanpetersen Lol good one
Plus May was on top of the white line I can be quite slippy adding to the stopping distance.
He was probably on the white line because The pick-up needed that much of the road
Everyone I know owns a truck and no one cares how fast it gets to or stops from 60 mph. No one goes truck shopping and asks how fast it goes 0 to 60.
@@rolanddeschain965 Exactly.
Or just hear me out, You could buy this truck in Canada for $115k (as listed assuming they don’t add a mark up ) or you could buy a comparable 5.0 or 3.5 ecoboost fully loaded for just under $68 k .
Then you can use the $47k to pay for 17 years worth of fuel and oil changes or pay for 8 years worth of fuel and oil changes plus have the difference to replace the whole drive train in 8 years.
Pro move, and remember the battery problem would be appears at 6-8 years
Bravo! At least someone on youtube comment section has brains. My buddy bought a used 5.0 with tow package before the pandemic for 22,000 70k miles. I bought mine used at auction 10 years ago for even cheaper. I swear the media pays people to comment on electric reviews on TH-cam. You talk to most people and they could barely afford a $35,000 car let alone $100,000 vehicle. Yeah they said $39,000 starting but that was marked up $8,500 before first delivery. And it was one of the magazines that showed a Lariat was 80,000 and The Limited was $92,000. If you're selling a product that is worse than the one you're trying to replace wouldn't you want to make it cheaper?
I would buy this car for the suspension, the front trunk, and the ability to charge my home for 3 days. IMO Ford should have made the Hybrid with a bigger battery, independent suspension and a factory bed cover and you have the perfect American vehicle.
I just priced it out on Ford's website builder for $83K CAN, with the long range battery and the high output.
This is a very good value for new tech, but not setup for towing. Just light-duty stuff.
Way to go Ford!
@@WestCoastSupercarsandClassics Yeah it's priced ok on the website but if you go ahead and try to buy it, the dealer markup is horrendous.
That keypad is the handiest thing I’ve ever had on a vehicle.
Nice review as always Mat.
When will you do a Mazda CX-60 review? The most powerful Mazda ever built for the roads!
Ironically enough Lightening's short range is far more appropriate in Britain. The max 320-mile range is acceptable in America only if we're talking about commuter vehicles. Pickups are for the wide open spaces. An ICE truck with a V8 has about 500 miles of range, refuels in 10 minutes and there is no shortage of fueling options.
It's true. I think the f150 would work over there if it wasn't for it's size. I guess that's where the ranger comes in. Brits already like Ford as a brand so maybe an electric ranger will be the one that turns them to the dark side.
Agreed. We are NE of DC and NW of Baltimore. My in-laws have a place near Fort Lauderdale, we have friends in KC and family along the north shore of Lake Ontario. I want to be able to get to any of these destinations in a single day of driving. The less fuel stops the better. My Cummins equiped Ram 2500 could do the longer trips (1,000 to 1,100 miles) on 2 tanks of fuel (600 miles per tank).
I think all the UK roads would need to be widened.
Matt struggled to stay in his lane.
not really, uk lorries fit around fine
I really apprecaited your overview on the vehicle and glad you like it since I am picking my XLT up today 🙂
I liked the shoutout for The Straight Pipes 😂😂 great video Mat!
It already killed the Tesla Cybertruck by simply already being available to buy.

Hi Mat, it will be nice to see a comparison between the Ravian, f150 L and the electric Hammer
Thanks for testing the F150 on English narrow roads. As an American, we often wondered how it would do on those narrow roads you have over there.
Have you heard the latest news on F150's? They are NOT selling because FORD raised the MSRP to over $80,000 USD and THAT disqualifies them, from the EV credit of $7500... S150 lightning costs the average buyer almost $20,000 more per truck! So FORD has recently (a few days ago) a PRICE CUT of $10,000 per Vehicle off the MSRP! So LARIAT Trim with EXT Battery is now about $78,000!!! And currently promises deliver in about 1 month instead of previous 3 year wait list - YAY!

Seeing an f150 drive around the u.k. has always been a dream of mine. It was even better than I expected.
Woud be helpfull if you had conversions to kwh per 100km and range in km
easy maths 1 mile = 1.6 kilometer 300 miles = 3* 160 km = 480 km
kwh per 100 km is divide 1/1.6 = ~~0.62 (why some manufacturers give 0-62 mph time ? because it's 0-100 kmh). So when the car uses 40 kWh per 100 miles it's 24.8 kWh per 100 km
40*0,62 or anything * 0,62 same with kWh per mile
Stop trying to make KM a thing, it's never going to happen in the UK (or the USA).
@@craigix but already happen in Canada and the rest of the world uses metric system mainly for speed and distance :) But conversion is so easy you don't need to give specific numbers.
In UK you are filling up in liters or gallons ? The funniest thing is US gallon is different than UK gallon :D
I'm convinced Ford has got the recipe right to try and gently convince truck owners that electric trucks are okay. Is it perfect? No. But, we've got to start somewhere.
EV trucks are useless for most and will always be unless they build chargers on sidewalks so the ppl who park on the roads can charge their trucks which I don't see happening
Just don't expect to tow anything very far.
@@dor1tomcswagger69 Actually I think it's useless only for those who want to tow or have very heavy payloads. Most people that I know (me included) with trucks don't do either.
Ford should make a modular outlet socket with it's adapters, that way everyone could enjoy it's features
AGREE with your verdict. Rivian is the way to go, especially with the short steering circle vs. the Ford. Both are great vehicles!

@@whatever_12 I understand 👍👍 So, the key must be hidden, so the burglar doesn't know that it is inside... In my Volkswagen Golf7, if the key is anywhere inside the car, if, one presses the start button, the engine starts and the driver is able to leave.
This system must be very comfortable. What I don't nderstand is why Ford does not offer this system in other countries outside of the US/Canada, or at least in Europe, as they don't offer this option 🙄🙄
Thank you very much for the information 😁
"Your knob retracts", oh please 😂
for your info, the f150 is by no means, a gas guzzler, including the 5.0 V8. I can get 21MPG out of my 5.0, which is very respectable especially for a pickup.
The retractable gear shifter + table is on the regular F150 too :)
It is stupid. Just put the gear selector on the dash or on the steering wheel. It only had to be located there to mechanically link with an ice tranmission. That entire centre area is wasted.
Well you forgot the fact that it could tell you how much pay load you have in the back and automatically calculate what your range is going to be based on what you’re towing or what you loaded up. No it doesn’t have a cover on the bed like the Rivian but leaves and debris that go in when it’s being retracted never come back out so you know what you’re gonna have to do eventually. Try getting in and out of the Rivian Frunk and you’ll find out as you lift your cooler in and out of that Rivian Frunk how strong your back really isn’t. Unfortunately for Rivian, even though they drove it all over the place testing in their half shafts aren’t holding up and have to be reengineered. Cheers

This will usher in many more new cars and trucks and may prove to be that tipping point that the market needs.
I feel like Ford could have done better with the lightning, more range, more towing capacity but at least in my perspective it’s all right, I don’t mind getting one
Ford also is coming with a 2nd EV truck, and this truck will be build from the ground up electric, will it replace the lightning? Don’t know
The cyber truck will have 4680 batteries. At the end of the day, technology counts and Tesla always delivers that.
No one wants these because of the mileage and charging restrictions and the tipping point needs to be towards freedom not towards electric slavery tied to a coal plant
@@aussie2uGA are you saying that Tesla will bring the radar back ?
It wins by default. And by 2025 we may possibly see a revised cybertruck announced to be launched in 2035 sooo we'll roll one of these f150's out then to FINALLY get the comparison review.

As an American who owns a 2023 F150 Lighting (ext range, Lariat) I have to say I love it. I'm glad I bought mine. Though, the Rivian R1T is a good second choice truck. The way to look at the two is that F150 is a work and general purpose truck while the Rivian is an outdoorsy adventuring truck. Each is capable of doing what the other does in general, but are best at what they're meant to do.
Have you tried the emergency brake test in the 1-pedal drive mode?
I'm wondering if it's any better.
Ford should have called it the E150?
The E 150 is a van and ford still makes that it’s called the econoline 150 and they use it for ambulance cutaway chassis alone side the ford transit because the chassis is much more heavy duty.
You forgot to mention that the keypad is so you can leave the keys inside the truck if you're going to the beach or doing anything that you might get the key fob wet

This car looked quite underrated.
240v chainsaw? Come on Mat lol
At 3:33 his phone was 69% LOL
The minimalist in me is killing me to know that this vehicle is driven somewhere in US by a single person with no passengers and no luggage m
Lol
Dont be jealous. At least the average person in the states can afford a used pickup. Not a EV of course. In Europe most people have these little death traps because thats all they can afford. The wealthy there drive bigger safer cars. So thats ok right? A nice 12 cylinder diesel Q8 or twin turbo v8 german sedan of your choice, with one person in it. Thats ok right? I saw Escalades and Navigators and full size pickup trucks in Europe. The difference is only the wealthy can afford them there.
This is intended to be a work truck so I doubt this vehicle will occupy just single passengers and no payload.
@@samspade8830 Unlikely that Lightnings will be used for anything other than personal vehicles. Maybe a contractor driving to job sites, but not anyone who needs to tow or haul for work. The Lightning doesn't have enough payload or towing capacity for anything serious. Work trucks usually start at F250 and go up from there.
@@rich7447 I think it will be both. The towing capacity is 7700 lbs, so it can still haul, just not as well as a diesel engine, or regular combustion engine. I definitely see contractors lugging wood and other materials in the bed of the truck. But they'll probably be a few people who buy it to show off.
Ford wouldn't have created this vehicle if they weren't trying to cater to the blue collar working class.
A UK registered F150 - insane for the UK.
Great if you never want to park in a carpark and of course anyone driving a left hand drive in the UK is nuts.
Needing an adapter to plug a UK plug into the sockets too..... awesome. Seriously anyone who buys this in the UK needs their head examining.
Theres actually quite a few of f150s in UK, in my city alone ive seen 4 - one of them being a raptor, another being an SVT and thr other 2 being “normal” models
@@aadi8568 I should have qualified my comment by referring to private individuals using it as a car and builders or tradesmen using it for it's load carrying.
You've seen 4x F150s.... I live in London, I can walk for 30 minutes in any direction and walk past thousands of cars parked up, a decent number of them are EVs, I'll see loads of Ford Transits and 0 pickups of any description. I can't even recall the last time I saw a pickup of any description (it was probably a L200), not sure 'quite a few' is right, extremely few is probably more like it.... although maybe London isn't the best place to look for them ;o)
Autotrader has 30 F150's for sale nationwide, by contrast it has 57 Aventadors for sale and 98 Ferrari 488's and 803 Teslas (all models).
@@corleth2868 well of course I am not saying f150s are common cars by any means, just that the area I live is relatively small (especially compared to london) However I would argue that normal size pickups like L200s Hilux Ranger etc. are very common sights outside of the city centre, they are everywhere where I live
I have seen many American pick ups and muscle cars here in London. One guy in Chelsea drives Dodge Ram monster truck and parks it on public road, if you ever past Radcliffe Gardens from Earls Court towards Thames, you will see it, its huge
From time to time I would see a Dodge ram driving around London. Now with the cc and ulez, not so much.
Retracting your knob.... charging your phone which just happens to be at 69%... smaller for a 22 bigger for a 45... Matthew!!! 🤣🤣🤣
I’m almost positive the PRO will be the volume seller, the price jump to the other trims is crazy.
Even with the lower limits for towing and hauling, my impression is that the first EV for most Americans will be a pickup. Particularly if the new EV credits can be used to offset some of the extra cost.
Ford hit a home run with this. The old F150 was the #1 selling pickup in the world for years. This one should continue that success.

Shit up!

@@ggsk6580 wait and see 😂
It went 58 miles on a full charge while towing a boat
🤣
Happy to have one on a long term family test 😀
Did you notice that at 3:31 Mat's phone charge is at 69%.
