CEO:  20K Reservations for Ford F-150 Lightning

CNET examines the historic unveiling of Ford’s new all-electric F-150 this week.

Looks like Ford’s got a decent crowd of people excited to venture into an electric F-150.

Wednesday night was all about the lightning strike, and the 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning sure did. The all-electric truck looks mighty compelling for what buyers get, and we especially dig the fact it’s not trying to be anything over the top, it’s mostly trying to be an F-Series that happens to be electric. For one reason or another, at least 20,000 people felt the same way and tossed $100 deposits at the Blue Oval in the first hours after the reveal.

Speaking to CNBC on Thursday morning, Ford CEO Jim Farley said the company received 20,000 reservations for the F-150 Lightning after the late reveal. That’s not too shabby considering it hasn’t even been 24 hours. Ford confirmed the figure with Roadshow but didn’t share any other details beyond it.
