Ford Is Already Planning a Second-Generation F-150 Lightning

•    Ford is already working on the follow-up to its F-150 Lightning pickup.

•    The company plans to eventually produce 500,000 electric pickup trucks per year in Tennessee.

•    The 2nd vintage of the Ford F-150 Lightning will go into production in 2025.

Ford will have been the first of the three major American manufacturers to offer an electric pickup truck on the market, with the Lightning version of its F-150. It will have to upgrade EV sooner rather than later, however, because other manufacturers are coming with their own all-electric pickups.

To meet those newer models head-on, Ford is already preparing a follow-up to its current F-150 Lightning. The company says it will have a new electric pickup truck in production in 2025. Details are scarce at the moment, but the new model does already have an internal code name: Project T3.
