In the F150 Lightning the batteries even on a standard range weigh as much as a Volkswagen. The standard range batteries weigh something like 1800lbs. The ER model has about 25% more battery and the Platinum weight is like 7150lbs! So maybe around 2100lbs of that is battery?

So you’re still over 5000lbs on that monster without the batteries.



I feel confident in wagering that GP didn't intend to allow driving an F150 with a regular license.

Even a Smart Fortwo is minimally 1800 lbs curb weight. How old is this Volkswagen? :)
