There will be two battery pack options, giving you an estimated 230 or 300 miles of range.
Power is targeted at 426 hp / 563 hp for the respective battery packs, and 775 lb-ft of torque for both. Quicker than a Raptor.
Two electric motors are used, which will drive the front and rear axles.
Up to 9.6 kW of power from various outlets around the truck (frunk, interior, and bed), with a 240V outlet in the bed as well.
Big selling point – you can send that power into your home! With Ford’s 80-amp Ford Charge Station Pro & home management system, you’ve got a 9.6kW power source for your home in the event of a power outage.
Ford says this is enough to power the average home for 3 days with the extended battery pack (~30kWh/day), or up to 10 days with rationed use.
Battery sizes have not been quoted; from the above, you might think around ~100 kWh for the extended pack (I don’t think so), but based on Ford’s quoted charging speeds, I’d estimate the standard battery pack is ~115 kWh, and the extended is ~150 kWh.
Pure speculation – not a figure from Ford!
Pricing actually seems solid. From Ford: “The commercial-oriented entry model starts at $39,974 MSRP before any federal or state tax credits, while the mid-series XLT model starts at $52,974 MSRP.”
