We’ve confirmed we are bringing an all-electric F-150 to market. Now, we’re showing you the capability you asked for by having it tow more than 1 million pounds.* This is Built Ford Tough.
*The F-150 battery-electric prototype is towing far beyond any production truck’s published capacity in a one-time short event demonstration. Never tow beyond a vehicle’s towing capacities. Always consult the Owner’s Manual.

Math is fun! This video shows the importance of rolling resistance coefficients. Ford chose a railway for a reason, CRR of ~0.0015, meaning they only needed a 1,875 lb-force from the truck in order to move the train. If they towed same weight on road tires, which have CRR 10x that of railways (~0.015) it would have taken an 18,750 lb force to move. Far more than the F150 weighs, so it would have sat still. Railway gives the illusion of impossible, when in reality it’s what makes it possible. Neat! Edit: Lots of comments about the tow strap, it actually doesn't need to be rated all that high (see math above, 2,000 lbs will do).

yeah good point too.....the tensile strength on that cable would have to exceed over 1.25 million lbs-force, which for that cross sectional area is probably more than carbon fiber lol...which means that they either lied, or they manipulated their test to make it seem much harder than it was

Bought a 2012 Ford F150 XLT Crew cab 3 months ago... This truck is my first Ford vehicle out of 24 cars I've been through, and I have to say is not even top trim level and yet I actually enjoy everything about this truck! I can't look at Chevy the same way anymore... I'm converted and it didn't take much to see how much better the Ford is after I stopped listening to the haters and tried it on my own. I'm definitely all in for electric pickup truck. Ford has won me over and I will elaborate on the reasons why Ford has taken me away from being a Chevy guy for anyone that asks. I'm rooting for you #Ford

I was a Chevy guy based on my experience with a 68 c20, 74 c20, and 1993 k10. But anything after 1998 I prefer the Ford. That's why there are 2 Ford trucks in my drive and a ford car in the garage though I keep the Chevys. The all electric ford F series will be the very first new vehicle I ever buy.

If anything Tesla has shown that after working out the kinks from one giga-factory build-out you can rapidly get another one constructed.

@ikani1
@ikani1 5 лет назад
Honestly, range isn't an issue in any electric these days. The tiniest cars now have 150-250 mile ranges, most regular car sized ones have 200-350, and any truck sized frame has plenty of battery space. So I'd guess this comes out with at least 400-500 mile range, maybe more. And for longer drives, the public charging infrastructure has really matured and filled out. Plenty more to do of course. But fast charging will give my car about 200 miles in 10-15 minutes, which is just about right for a driving break. :)

Its less impressive when you realize you could pull that with almost any vehicle. As an engineer for the railway I can tell you, you can push rail cars on flat track by hand, the railway is simply that efficient. That said if ford released an electric f150, and kept the same design with good range, that would be a proper electric truck, and certainly worth a look.

Your family was right Ford isn't going to go to electric they're going to die out way before that this is just a publicity stunt that truck is never going to for sale Ford has a hard time with the vehicle they created the combustion engine they can't even get that right don't expect Ford to make anything in the electric category worth Wild

Ford is dragging there feet on this all Electric Ford F-150 because there making a hybrid first. They should be helping save the planet sooner by going in All Electric right away. There's plenty of hybrids proven that's not the way to go. All Electric is what we need.

An electric truck that can pull 1.2 million pounds, $70,000+, cost of 42 F150's $1.7 million, unbreakable tow strap PRICELESS!
@Pwnzistor

You don't need a heavy tow strap when you're towing across rails. And you don't need a truck that can pull 1million pounds when you're pulling something across rails.

@Ausseke
@Ausseke 5 лет назад
For those who would like to know. the tow-strap is a standard railroad car strap. Each car mover is about 30 tons. The neat trick was they got it all moving, not how far it went. They was on flat ground, MOST RR cars will move fairly easy after they get started :) Last thought, How did they get it all stopped? The truck sure as heck didn't stop it. Best guess, they " bottled the air " on the cars ( made sure the brakes would stay released), then used a E.O.T. to put the cars in emergency. How do I know all this, I am a RR Conductor :) I am not sure I would give up my 2015 F-150 , but that was a cool demo.

Rivian and Tesla are also working on electric trucks, and possibly Fisker - just in case you want some others to keep an eye on. The Rivian in particularly looks excellent
