The & quot; Extended-Range Battery version& quot; will dispose of 420 kW with 1,051 Nm of torque and a range of up to 300 miles (482 km).

Curiously, Ford did not want to communicate the capacity; accurate of the batteries. However, given the time required for the supply of energy, it is estimated that the capacity; can be greater than 100 kWh in both models. Hopefully Ford wants to share more details about the accumulator in the future. One of the most important features interesting of the new electric pickup & egrave; definitely the Ford Intelligent Backup Power .

In short, the car can power the house with energy in the event of a power failure. To do so, for & ograve ;, it will serve & agrave; a special wallbox. Also thanks to its battery, the pickup will be able to & agrave; power different electrical devices through its many sockets.
