What that means is it'll have a fully electric powertrain just like the current model year, but it will get additional range beyond what its battery usually affords it. That will come from an engine which runs on regular fuel and acts as a generator.

While the 2025 Lightning delivers an EPA-estimated range of up to 320 miles (515 km), the upcoming EREV version is slated to manage a whopping 700 miles (1,126 km) with a full tank and battery. Given that it'll also serve as an electric power source for your home, tools, and appliances, the series hybrid system adds to the flexibility and practicality you'll get with your truck.
