Electric trucks are generally heavier than their gas-powered counterparts. There are a few reasons why the R1T is heavier than the F-150, but the most significant factor is the battery pack. EV battery packs can be pretty heavy. Even for a smaller Tesla Model 3, the battery makes up nearly a quarter of the vehicle’s weight. So the bigger the battery, the heavier the vehicle.
However, the huge battery gives the R1T a curb weight of 7,148 pounds.
The 2023 F-150 Lighting has a smaller 98-kWh battery than the R1T. Ford says this battery delivers a driving range of 230 miles on the base model. Opting for the Platinum brings a bigger battery with 300 miles driving range but adds considerable weight to this 6,893-pound truck
Next to useless it you want to tow or use it as a replacement
Build one of these & put the equivalent of 5 years Co2 in the atmoshpere... - BEFORE the wheel even make one revolution turns.....making it HARDER for the planet to cope
Your making it worse NOT better if your goal is to reduce C02 .
Ev's DO NOT remove C02 for the air they put MORE in to the atmosphere..
Co2 levels will skyrocket if you replace the fleet with Ev's
