Why did the Ford F-150 Lightning win?
The F-150 Lightning's strong performance and long range make it our clear winner in the Electric Truck category. The Lightning is at once both futuristic and familiar. It has loads of modern technology features; for example, you can even use its battery to power your home during power outages. Yet at its heart, the Lightning is still an F-150. Its controls will be familiar to anyone who has driven a gas-powered F-150, yet it offers quicker acceleration and lower running costs. And its extended-range battery offers impressive range -- up to 345 miles in Edmunds' real-world testing. We've found that range decreases noticeably when towing, but overall the Lightning is simply a great truck that just so happens to be an EV.
"The F-150 Lightning is Ford's Tesla Model S moment. I can't think of another EV that has more appeal for so much of the U.S. market. But the best part is it's excellent. Those who aren't convinced on first blush just need to live with the Lightning for a week to see just how big of a step forward this thing is."— Nick Yekikian, news editor
