2023 Ford F-150 Lightning Review: The Blue Oval’s Most Important Model (Starting Now)
2023 Ford F-150 Lightning Lariat - Profile Photo: V.Aubé • Auto123 reviews the 2023 F-150 Lightning.• The official 515 km range is quite feasible... given mild winter conditions.
We had occasion to drive the F-150 Lightning for a few days in February, just after an epically frigid weekend. Which meant we didn't get to see how the electric pickup reacts to such conditions. Fortunately, Ford's designers have incorporated a few details to distinguish to the electric model. The hood with its fuller front end is different, as is the large LED strip that runs across the front fascia from left to right. With this signature, it’s hard to confuse the Lightning with other versions of the F-150.
That screen, which houses the SYNC 4A system, is very responsive and has clear graphics, but it's full of all kinds of menus. It takes more than a week behind the wheel to master navigating through this electronic maze, but unlike us, owners will have more than a week so in the long run that’s probably not a problem. On the other hand, the climate-control and seat heating commands are accessible only via the screen, which is not as ergonomic as good old-fashioned knobs.
The electric F-150 has another advantage over its gasoline equivalent, with a frunk sitting where the absent internal combustion engine is not. It’s out of sight so a secure storage space. It's true that the big battery and almost 600 hp give the F-150 Lightning wings. But given the truck's almost three-ton weight, let's just say that the powertrain has to work hard, even if you don't feel it at all behind the wheel. The pickup's ride is quiet as can be, while the rapid delivery of power and torque is nothing like what we get from the regular F-150. The instantaneous torque reverberates throughout the cabin, especially when you get off to a fast start.
