With enhanced aerodynamics that allow for an impressive downforce of about three tons, the radical pick-up features a huge goose-neck shaped spoiler hanging at the rear and projecting above the roof. Additionally, the rear section highlights the massive diffuser. Up front, the standout feature is the generous splitter.

Apesar de no haber revelado datos técnicos de esta versión 100% eléctrica que va a alinear en la conocida «carrera hacia las nubes» el próximo 23 de junio, la radical pick-up F-150 Lightning SuperTruck tiene algunas similitudes con la Ford SuperVan 4.0 con la cual la marca enfrentó los 20 kilómetros de carretera montañosa, y que contaba con cuatro motores que producían, en total, unos impresionantes 1972 cv de potencia, y que estableció un récord de su clase en 2023.
