Ford unveiled the F-150 Lightning<\/a> earlier this month and promised a 230-mile range for the standard-range battery (SR) model and 300 miles for the extended-range battery (ER). These are provisional figures Ford is targeting, meaning we\u2019ll have to wait a bit more to get the final numbers from EPA. As it turns out, the electric truck could travel farther in some conditions compared to the initial announcement.<\/p>\n

YouTube star Marques Brownlee had the privilege of hopping behind the wheel of a near-production prototype of the Cybertruck<\/a> rival. Not only that, but Ford shared an interesting tidbit with him, claiming the 300-mile range is an estimation that takes into account 1,000 pounds (454 kilograms) of cargo carried in the bed.<\/p>\n
