How it Works – unlike any traditional hybrid system, this 2027 Ford F-150 is going to feature a small EcoBoost unit with gas engine which does not drive the wheels. Instead, it acts solely as a generator to recharge the battery pack while driving.

This system is expected to achieve driving range of 700+ miles (1,100+ km) which i feel more than enough for anyone. Since this will be built on the new dedicated EV truck platform (TE1 or “Project T3”) at the BlueOval City complex in Tennessee it will be cost efficient too.
