F150 Lighting is just too heavy to do 0 - 60 in 4 seconds flat with any tire or environment. At absolutely the best I am looking at 4.3 - 4.4 seconds with the right tire, right driver and right environment (climate, altitude and on a well maintained race track)
Just celebrated my 37th birthday. My first Ford and first Pickup (still can't believe I am getting a Truck, things does change after 35 I guess :)
Our automobile history
2002 Acura RSX Type S
2006 Mazda RX 8
2011 BMW 335i
2012 Mini Cooper
2015 BMW 535i
2016 Range Rover Sport
2002...
EPA 320 miles is just an reference , your mile may really vary.
Here is an real world example
My Kona EV
EPA 259 mile
100 percent SoCal Spring/Summer range = 270+
100 percent NorCal winter Range = 240+
ER non Plat , depends on your geographic location, it can range anywhere from 220+...
Well , ER adds much more than 70 miles
1. 90 miles (320 vs 230 , big factor for Resale value)
2. 563HP vs 426HP (137HP difference, big factor for Resale Value)
3. Ford Co-Pilot 360 With blue cruise (Ford's input for Autopilot, big factor for resale Value)
4. Tow Technology Package included...
just pure speculation based on other EV's end results.
SR -- 0 - 60 anywhere from 5.3S to 5.8S
ER -- 0 - 60 anywhere from 4.2S to 4.7S
ICE 2022 Raptor Reference 0 - 60 in 5.1s - 5.2s
Real world MPG 12 - 13
It's not going to be anything close to Tesla MX, Hummer EV or Quad Motor...
This is from my pal's auto broker business, just some reference. This doesn't apply to all dealers (there are some honest MSRP or below dealer such as LONGO Toyota, but just some reference on the current situation).
Honda Civic -- 2022 model $3000 - $5000 ADM
Toyota Sienna -- 6 month wait...
Well, you aren't alone on this (we have someone reserved within 15 minutes of open booking, but still miss the bus somehow)
Your eventual conversion depends on several key factors
1. Are you in a ZEV State (such as California)?
It's pretty much confirmed that ZEV state will receive a lot...
Lets put 800v in this perspective
I. Vehicles that support 800V
A. GM Hummer EV - Build from scratch dedicated EV platform (BTW, I am still awaiting for my production date for reserving Humvee 5 mins into the public announcement, well, its selling for 200K ADM , i can wait little longer I...
Just a heads up.
Dealer is asking 200k ADM for first edition of Hummer EV , yes 200K , you didn't read it wrong.

F150L's market just elevating to another level. Wouldn't be surprised some...
I believe with the way EV is going , the development will be much sooner than that. It's going to be revolutionary.
Btw we are going to have the same stable (Kona EV / F150L , killer non-Tesla combination IMO)
Kona EV is so underrated.
Toyota will have their first SSD Battery in 2025 (hybrid car first) , Quantumscape will have the first SSD battery for VW group in 2024 (Full EV). The product is there now, but need to figure out how to keep down the cost and mass produce them.
If SSD battery can be a thing (I'm giving it a 70...
my fault on the typo, I meant 130Kw. Soon we will have real world survey and competition (who can achieve most mileage per charge) can't wait for that.
We've been driving EVs since the very first BMW i3 (2014 ) , i3, i3s, Ioniq, kona, Clarity FCV. here are some recaps for EV range.
1. Weather --- We are in So-CAL, rarely encounter any sort harsh weather, however on those occasion days where the temperate is below 40, you will see the...
For most people it's going to be combination of different methods.
1. We have a 36A charger installed in front of our garage, this will be our primary charging method (roughly 7.0 - 7.2 Kw per hour)
2. I also have memberships for EVGO (fortunately we have the 350Kw 150Kw charger available in...
Trust me the first edition Silverado most likely won't be there on time. Prob late 2023 to early 2024.
Why?
I have the very first reservation for the Hummer EV first edition, it was supposed to be available to me Fall of 2021 , guess what, I will probably get my F150L (Order Sent) before...
After the Rivian event , I doubt anyone would not convert or extend their reservation. I wouldnt be surprised if we see more than 95 percent or more conversion + extention rate for 2022 reservation.
