The iconic truck is now powered by electricity.🚚

Tesla also has the edge on payload capacity, claiming 3,500 pounds of maximum payload for all three versions of the Cybertruck. In comparison, Ford offers only 2,000 pounds with its Standard Range trucks and 1,800 pounds for Extended Range models.When it comes to range, Tesla beats Ford fair and square. The entry-level F-150 Lightning offers 230 miles of range, while the extended-range model offers 280-300 miles , depending on trim.

On the other hand, Cybertruck's entry-level model offers 250 miles of range for the same price, the dual-motor model offers up to 300 miles , and the tri-motor model offers over 500 miles of range. The F-150 Lightning has to charge speeds up to 150 kW, and its battery goes from 15 percent to 80 percent in roughly 45 minutes. But combined with the short-range it offers, long-distance travel will require more charging stops.

The F-150 Lightning uses a Combined Charging System , allowing standard and direct current fast charging. While owners can charge the truck almost anywhere, except for a Tesla supercharger, Ford also has a deal with Electrify America, called the Ford Blue Oval Charging Network, which features more than 70,000 stations around North America.While the competition between those long-awaited electric trucks excites us, we are curious about Tesla’s next move to compensate for this defeat.
