People often think that electric cars have to be small to be efficient and high-performing. Car manufacturers are banking on this and do not dare to venture any further, at least for the time being. However, the American manufacturer Ford has announced that they are totally focused on electric vehicles and is even going to offer an electric F-150, which has been a flagship Ford product for decades.
By offering an electric truck, or rather an electric version of its F-150, the engineers at the blue oval want to show that they are committed to making their next pickup 100% electric and 100% powerful.
St-Basile Ford on the South Shore of Montreal, near Chambly and Longueuil in Montérégie, is especially proud to tell you about the upcoming arrival of electric pickups, especially the 100% electric F-150 soon to be on the North American market.
A Fully Electric F-150 with Plenty of Torque!
American automaker Ford is taking ingenuity one step farther, with the electrification of its different F-150 truck models. The architecture of electric vehicles remains relatively simple. Electric energy is supplied by a battery that powers an electric motor through one or more power converters. Until now, this technology has mainly been used on small vehicles for urban mobility. Ford is interested in this technology and is now trying to use it on its F-150 trucks. A team of seasoned engineers is experimenting with a more powerful battery in these vehicles with an extended range. Because the full-size and high-performing Ford F-150 has been the best-in-class in its segment for over 50 years, it's a big challenge to design an electric model that will appeal to the customer just as much. One thing's for sure, technological advances have made the electrification of F-150 trucks possible.
Ford is a visionary company, looking ahead while many continue to do things the same way or stagnate. The electric movement is in full force and it's more popular than we think. In fact, we’re on the verge of seeing charging stations in parking lots and garages in the United States and Canada. Ford is surprising us again and again, this time pushing the envelope in other segments, such as electric-powered utility vehicles and trucks. The electric vehicle market is not just about the electric car, it's about every other line of vehicle on the market.
The best-selling truck of all time, this iteration of the model is a masterpiece and will certainly attract consumers in the near future. The All-Electric F-150 prototype was unveiled this year and has a huge towing capacity, as we saw in a video launched by the American manufacturer.
The vehicle of tomorrow, the Ford F-150 will be even more innovative, without losing its efficiency and power. Your Ford dealer in Montérégie, St-Basile Ford, has been offering you the best prices and the best service for a long time, and offers you access to an experienced team to answer all your questions.
The future of our American manufacturer lies in the constant improvement of its vehicles, the introduction of new electric vehicles (Ford Fusion, Ford Escape, etc.) and the marketing of new electric vehicles (Ford Fusion, Ford Escape, etc.) in a segment still untapped by electrification, SUVs and trucks. The F-150 has been at the heart of the company's success for more than 50 years, and the electrification of the model may well take it to another stage in its evolution.
