The engine and a regenerative braking mechanism recharge the battery. A 35kW (47 horsepower) electric motor in the 10-speed automatic transmission augments the traditional motor and gets power from a 1.5kWh lithium-ion battery underneath the truck. The F-150 Hybrid’s 3.5-liter PowerBoost V6 engine delivers 430 horsepower and 570lb-ft of torque. So while we look forward to testing the Lightning, the F-150 Hybrid is a promising start. It’s also the first full-size pickup that supports over-the-air software updates. And, aside from the fuel savings the hybrid drivetrain offers, it can provide electricity for tools and various appliances on the go via cargo bed outlets.

Until then, the first-ever 2022 Ford F-150 Hybrid ($60,545 as tested) is a worthy alternative that delivers plenty of power.
