Ford F150-Lightning

The Ford F150-Lightning reaches 60 mph in 4.15 s (100 km/h in 4.40 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 12.78 s, tripping the lights at 107.7 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 1.94 s and the eighth mile in 8.18 s, reaching 100 mph in 10.91 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Pick who it runs against, then watch it happen — and change the surface, the weather or the distance and run it again.

About the F150-Lightning

The 2023 Ford F150-Lightning is an all-wheel-drive electric pickup of 2,989 kg with 573 bhp, which works out at 192 bhp per tonne. With full torque from a standstill it clears the first 60 ft in 1.94 s, and the question for an electric car is usually not the launch but whether it keeps pulling: it trips the quarter-mile lights at 107.7 mph. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 1,240th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest tenth, and the 13th quickest of the 789 Fords here. Its 107.7 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 5 of 5 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Ford F150-Lightning 0-60 time?
The Ford F150-Lightning reaches 60 mph in 4.15 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 1,240th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Ford F150-Lightning quarter mile time?
12.78 s at 107.7 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.18 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.94 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Ford F150-Lightning have?
573 bhp and 2,989 kg, which is 192 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, electric, with 1 gears and a quoted top speed of 177 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Ford F150-Lightning?
Closest here on pace: BMW iX3 50 NA5 (4.17 s), Jaguar I-Pace EV400 (4.13 s), Porsche Macan GTS (2020) (4.18 s). Each one can be raced against the Ford F150-Lightning in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Ford F150-Lightning is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 5 of its 5 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
