AutoExec Summary
The new Ford F-150 Lightning Switchgear concept has been revealed, hinting at a faster all-electric Ford F-150 Raptor from the Blue Oval. Continuing the legacy of previous models like the SuperVan 4.2, Mustang Mach-E 1400, Mustang Cobrajet 1400, and F-100 Eluminator, this latest battery-powered concept was developed in collaboration with RTR Vehicles. The modifications to transform the F-150 Lightning into a Baja100-ready vehicle include widened track, carbon-fibre fenders, high-lift kit, long-travel suspension, Fox 3-inch dampers, and more. The concept also features front and rear steel bumpers, carbon-fibre bed sides, rock sliders, and 18-inch off-road rims with 37-inch tires. Inside, Recaro bucket seats and a hydraulic handbrake have been added. While specific changes to the powertrain remain unknown, the concept is set to debut at a California off-road event on January 25. No confirmation on a production model has been given, with Ford Performance focusing on using electric vehicles like the F-150 Lightning Switchgear to advance future technologies quickly.
