April 19, 2022 – The upcoming Ford F-150 Lightning’s lithium-ion battery pack can power more than just the truck itself. While it can work as an electric generator to power various tools or other devices at the worksite, it can also power your entire home.
Ford says with Intelligent Backup Power, the Lightning’s extended-range battery pack can power your home for three days, and up to 10 days if you properly ration your power usage or combine it with solar power.
For those unaware, the all-new F-150 Lightning is Ford’s first electric pickup truck. It carries a starting price of $39,974 and is expected to arrive this spring 2022. The Lightning will be available with two different size battery packs. With the extended-range pack, it has a targeted EPA-estimated range of 300 miles.
