Lend a Hand – and a Few Miles – to Your Friends Using Vehicle-to-Vehicle Charging on F-150 Lightning, F-150 Hybrid
Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
- With innovative Pro Power Onboard, the all-electric 2022 #ford F-150 Lightning™ truck and the F-150 PowerBoost Hybrid have the ability to let customers “share” range with other electric vehicle owners, allowing them to charge a friend’s vehicle during an outage or top off an #ev battery for a neighbor
- Customers can use their #f150lightning or F-150 PowerBoost Hybrid to charge electric vehicles from #ford and other manufacturers; this is estimated to add an average range of 20 miles per charging hour to a Mustang Mach-E SUV with extended range battery and rear-wheel drive, or 13 miles of charge per hour on an F-150 Lightning
- Ford is using electric vehicle technology to offer customers innovative new capabilities – from deploying their #f150lightning battery to power their home in an outage to freeing up even more space for storage in the Mega Power Frunk
DEARBORN, Mich., Dec. 21, 2021 – Usually when someone asks you to top them off, they’re holding a cool beverage in hand looking for a refill. But with the all-electric F-150 Lightning™, customers can take service to another level by “sharing” miles with other electric vehicles – those built by #ford and other manufacturers – giving people additional range through vehicle-to-vehicle charging.
With available Pro Power Onboard, the 2022 #f150lightning and F-150 PowerBoost Hybrid trucks are high-energy power sources on wheels with multiple uses, thanks to their onboard generators and high-capacity battery systems. Now, #ford is offering another unique benefit to that list: vehicle-to-vehicle charging using the Ford-exclusive Pro Power Onboard 240-volt outlet.
“There are hundreds of benefits to #ford Pro Power Onboard – and we’ve added one more,” said Patrick Soderborg, #ford e-powertrain systems engineer. “Taking power on the road or having extra energy at home brings a lot of convenience and security, and using the #f150lightning or #f150hybrid to top off a friend’s electric vehicle or help them during an outage is one of the many new benefits our customers gain from our Built #ford Tough electrified trucks.”
When connected to an #f150lightning or F-150 PowerBoost Hybrid with the optional 9.6 or 7.2 kilowatt Pro Power Onboard1, the #ford Mobile Power Cord charger can deliver Level-2 charging that’s estimated to add an average range of 20 miles per charging hour on a Mustang Mach-E with extended-range battery and rear-wheel drive2. It will add up to 13 miles of charge per hour on the upcoming #f150lightning, and will add an average range of 10 miles per charging hour to a #ford E-Transit low-roof cargo van2.
Customers can easily take advantage of this capability, using a widely available power adaptor to link the #ford Mobile Power Cord to their truck. Once connected to the 240-volt Pro Power Onboard outlet, customers can use the Mobile Power Cord to charge a range of all-electric vehicles that use the SAE J1772 charge port. This includes the #ford Mustang Mach-E, the #ford E-Transit electric van and the all-new 2022 #ford #f150lightning electric pickup, as well as vehicles from other manufacturers3.
The 2021 #ford F-150 PowerBoost Hybrid pickup has an available 7.2 kilowatt Pro Power Onboard generator that can be used to power tools, accessories and the #ford Mobile Power Cord. This spring, the all-new 2022 #f150lightning – the first full-size battery electric pickup from #ford – will debut with the available 9.6 kilowatt Pro Power Onboard power source.
Electric vehicles open doors to new customer benefits
Just as cell phones and the internet changed our way of life, electric vehicles are poised to do the same with a wide range of new services and features. Leveraging the electric power generation and storage available in the new #f150lightning and F-150 PowerBoost Hybrid, #ford is building in new features that give customers functionality, convenience and capability.
With #f150lightning, its power source can even be used to power a home using #ford Intelligent Backup Power. Instead of installing a home generator or battery backup, the truck can be used to power a typical-size home up to three days in the event if a power outage4. The compact electric powertrain also allowed #ford to create the first Mega Power Frunk – a front trunk that not only offers multiple power outlets but also provides up to 14 cu.-ft. of lockable storage.
“There are so many new opportunities to innovate with features and functions made possible only through electrification,” said Soderborg. “This really hit home during the Texas power crisis last February, which left millions in the cold. #f150hybrid helped many Texans keep warm and powered up during those difficult times thanks to Pro Power Onboard – and we’re trying to do even more with #f150lightning.”
