Our brand’s first-ever zero-emissions pickup truck has finally been unveiled. We’d like to introduce all of North and Central New Jersey to the all-new 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning!
The F-150 Lightning name symbolizes Ford moving forward in reducing our carbon footprint through the use of an all-electric powertrain. A powerful next-generation lithium-ion battery is utilized and the standard-range option allows for an EPA-estimated driving range targeting 230 miles on a full charge, while the extended-range option ups that to a target of 300 miles of driving range on a full charge.

For charging your truck on the road, FordPass provides access to our continent’s largest public charging network that contains more than 63,000 plugs & growing with the ability to get up to 54 miles of driving range in 10 minutes and 15% to 80% of charge in about 41 minutes on extended-range models when using a 150-kWh DC fast charger.
