Today, the vehicle manufacturer <ins>announced<\/ins> plans to reboot the truck as a hybrid. This next generation of the F-150 Lightning will contain Extended Range Electric Vehicle. An EREV is similar in concept to a plug-in hybrid but with a larger battery that&rsquo;s topped up by a gas generator &mdash; the powertrain itself is all electric. This next generation of the F-150 Lightning will offer an estimated range of more than 700 miles. Production will end this year on the current F-150 Lightning models.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">This revamp of the F-150 Lightning is part of Ford&rsquo;s latest approach to electric vehicles. The company <ins>projected<\/ins> that by 2030, half of its global volume will be comprised of hybrids, extended-range EVs and electric vehicles, compared with 17 percent today. &ldquo;As part of these actions, Ford no longer plans to produce select larger electric vehicles where the business case has eroded due to lower-than-expected demand, high costs and regulatory changes,&rdquo; the company&rsquo;s press release states. Ford will also swap its planned electric commercial van for North America with a new, affordable commercial van that has both gas and hybrid options. The company anticipates seeing a $19.5 billion negative impact for this pivot away from EVs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><sub>Ford is rebooting the F-150 Lightning as an EREV with a gas generator<\/sub><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just last month, Ford seemed to be on the brink of sunsetting the F-150 Lightning.
