Another electric Ford pickup truck is coming. Ford Chief Executive Officer Jim Farley made this known in a speech while celebrating the production launch of the 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning.
“I wish we could bring you down there, but we’re already pushing dirt down in Blue Oval City for another electric pickup truck that’s different than this one,” Farley said.
Farley followed his remarks about a new, mysterious and yet-to-come electric pickup with more electric truck talk.
“We have every intention of being the number one electric pickup maker.”
After hearing Farley’s comment, Yahoo News reached out to Ford to clarify or perhaps glean more knowledge about the undefined “different” electric pickup truck that Farley is talking about, but a Ford spokesperson had nothing to add.
Existing pickups sold in the U.S. that could be made electric include the Ranger and Maverick nameplates. The Ford Ranger’s German cousin, the VW Amarok, has been rumored to offer an electric variant within the truck’s current lifecycle, but there’s nothing certain about that.
For now, know that there will eventually be a second Blue Oval with a bed that you can plugin. We’ll eagerly await more information when Ford is ready to provide it.
