We're in the age of the electric truck. Now drivers from Traverse City and across the nation have access to purchasing or leasing a truck that runs only on electric power such as the Ford F-150 Lightning. You can learn more about it and its availability here at our dealership where we can discuss it in detail and help you get the chance to get behind the wheel of one today.
With the F-150 Lightning, you are getting a capable truck that offers 426 horsepower combined using its electric motor system built into the frame of the vehicle. There are two options as there is a standard battery pack that provides 230 miles of range on a single charge while an extended rang option nets you 320 miles. Each provide around 63 to 78 miles per gallon of electric equivalent, and are plenty capable. This includes 10,000 pounds of maximum towing as well as 2,000 pounds of maximum payload, all without using any gasoline.
You can charge up with a professionally-installed Level 2 charger at home overnight, or you can use public charging stations. This includes fast charging stations that are able to go from 10 percent charged to 80 percent in 44 minutes. You also are able to utilize its versatility not just for towing and hauling, but the F-150 Lightning comes with the ability to act as a backup generator as a fully-charged truck can power the average household for up to three days in the event of an outage, or can be use to light up a job site, tailgate, or other event.
The F-150 Lightning is in high demand and our team is here to showcase ones that come through our showroom serving Suttons Bay, Kalkaska, Leelanau County and Traverse City. To get started and learn more about the availability of the electric truck, contact us and we can provide more information.
