Ford F-150 Lightning EPA Range Numbers Emerge: Up To 320 Miles

The long-awaited EPA range and efficiency numbers for the upcoming Ford F-150 Lightning all-electric pickup finally emerged, but not yet on the EPA's website, but via Monroney Stickers, shared on f150gen14.com forum. We assume that they are true.

The manufacturer estimated that the two battery versions will offer 230 miles (Standard Range battery) or 300-320 miles (Extended Range battery) of EPA range.

According to four Monroney Stickers, shown for Pro (SR and ER), Lariat (ER) and Platinum (ER) versions, Ford achieved the 230-mile target for the SR and beat the ER target by 20 miles, achieving 320 miles.

  • Pro 18"
    (SR): 230 miles (370 km)
    (ER - fleets): 320 miles (515 km)
  • XLT
    (SR; 18"): N/A (potentially the same as Pro SR)
    (ER; 20"): N/A (potentially the same as Lariat ER)
  • Lariat 20"
    (SR): N/A (potentially the same as Pro SR)
    (ER): 320 miles (515 km)
  • Platinum 22"
    (ER): 300 miles (483 km)

Some of the versions (XLT SR/ER and Lariat SR with 20" wheels) are not yet listed on the forum.

The difference between the Platinum ER and Lariat ER, of 20 miles, is actually not that big, considering bigger wheels and slightly higher weight (see comprehensive specs here).

An interesting thing is that the ER battery versions (aside from Platinum) get 320 miles, compared to 314 miles of Rivian R1T.

Efficiency

Now let's take a look at the efficiency numbers of the four listed versions. Interestingly, no big difference between the Pro SR and ER versions.

The results are very similar to the Rivian R1T (below), which has a smaller battery and is a smaller vehicle (between full-size and mid-size). We guess that the reason might be the quad motor powertrain, a bit more complex than the dual motor in the Ford F-150 Lightning:
