Ford F150 Lightning electric truck review in Britain - the world's most practical EV?

Ford F150 Lightning electric truck review in Britain – the world’s most practical EV? Jonny Smith thinks there is a fair chance that this 320-mile American utilitarian icon could well be, for several reasons. He got to drive what is the only example in Europe, and explore its many power sockets, practical payload, storage spaces and enormous power output.

Thanks for stopping by The Late Brake Show.

The big question is, will Ford be selling the enormous F150 Lightning in Britain? No. Because it’s enormous. But, all of its specatacularly useful features and drivetrain could be packaged inside the more appropriately sized Ranger pick-up. In the meantime, Jonny silently drives his slab of Stateside pick-up through narrow country villages and small British towns…. so you don’t have to.
