AutoExec Summary
Australian customers have shown an ‘awesome’ reception to the right-hand-drive converted full-sized Ford F-150 Lightning electric truck. The electric pick-up, imported and converted by Advanced Manufacturing Queensland and distributed by AusEV, has garnered significant interest, particularly in the commercial and fleet sectors. Priced from $169,900, the Lightning offers impressive performance capabilities, including a dual-motor set-up capable of towing up to 4.5 tonnes. While LDV’s eT60 electric ute remains a competitor in the market, the F-150 Lightning’s superior specs and capabilities have made it a popular choice among buyers. Despite its higher price tag, the Lightning is gaining traction in the Australian market.
