Ford has confirmed the 'Lightning' name for its upcoming electric F-150 pickup truck, scheduled to be unveiled on 19 May

Ford Motor Company has confirmed that its all-electric pickup truck will be called the 'F-150 Lightning'. The American car major also announced that the new electric Ford F-150 Lightning pickup truck will be globally unveiled on 19 May.

The electric pickup truck will revive the 'Lightning' nameplate after a period of over 2 decades. The name was last used on the Ford SVT F-150 Lightning model from the early 1990s.

Ford states that the new electric F-150 will be quicker than the original 'Lightning' model, while also continuously improving via over-the-air (OTA) updates. The new electric pickup truck is also expected to introduce a number of innovations, technologies and capabilities to the F-Series.

While Ford is yet to reveal any further details, they have announced that the production of the F-150 Lightning will commence from Spring next year. The all-electric F-150 pickup truck will be manufactured at Ford's Rouge Complex in Dearborn, Michigan (USA).
