2024 F-150 Lightning
The 2024 F-150 Lightning Platinum Black Edition will be available in limited quantities, 2000 units to be exact, with deliveries scheduled to begin in early 2024. The Platinum Black Edition and this new package wrap the whole electric-powered truck in matte black in conjunction with unique badging, wheels, lighting, and interior bits. It sits on 22-inch matte black wheels and black lug nuts; there is Black Ford Oval badging and all-black U.S. flag badging one of a kind to this model; power-deployable running boards with Agate Black gloss accents; a soft-shell black tonneau cover for the bed; a distinct smoked signature light bar; reflective black-on-black Lightning badging; an Agate Black gloss roof that blends in with the glass roof panel; “Lightning” graphics on roof glass above passenger seating; Agate Black door handles; and Luxe black premium Nirvana leather seating. The vinyl wrap itself is from a supplier, 3M, and Ford is supplying a 3-year, 36,000-mile warranty for the wrap specifically.
“Ford is no stranger to limited-edition vehicles – and the F-150 Lightning Platinum Black is taking our award-winning electric truck to new levels of stealth and style. This is the perfect choice for those customers looking to make a statement.” – Dave Pericak, director of Ford EV truck programs.
Ford will even roll out a brand new update to all F-150 Lightning owners to now allow them to use the Pro Power Onboard system with 9.6 kW of exportable power when the truck is switched off, with an improved consumer interface for a clearer understanding of the truck’s available power levels. The updates will even introduce Walk Away Locking for the Lightning, permitting the consumer to lock the automobile with a passive key or authorized phone device. The Platinum Black comes generally with the Extended Range battery p.c. and the 580-hp dual-motor powertrain configuration. Ford claims it’ll supply the identical 300-mile EPA-rated range as the standard Platinum. The F-150 Lightning Platinum is beginning at an MSRP of 97,995 (plus destination fees).
The F-150 Lightning family comes in Pro, XLT, Lariat, and Platinum. The F-150 Lightning is properly equipped; it could tow as much as 10,000 pounds, which isn’t that far off the capability of its gas-powered siblings. The Lightning does compensate for the utility front with a few cool features, such as a large front trunk and a Pro Power Onboard feature that includes household-style electric plugs that may be used to power equipment and other electronic devices. The F-150 Lightning is usually recommended to anyone in want of a utility-focused EV.
The front seats are supportive and can be ready with heating, ventilation, three-level lumbar adjustment, or even a massaging function. The available Max Recline front seats can recline to provide an almost flat seat to rest or take a nap. The Lightning features an entirely independent rear suspension, which provides a smoother ride and is an exact upgrade from the standard regular F-150. The climate control system is effective and powerful, requiring little adjustment to keep the desired temperature.
