The New Ford F-150 Lightning Flash Strikes In 2024
Ford fixed up a new F-150 Lightning for 2024.
The F-150 Lightning Flash trim is an upgrade from the 2023 XLT with the 320-mile extended range battery pack.
For the same $69,995 starting price (not including destination fees), it adds the F-150 Lightning’s larger 15.5-inch touchscreen infotainment system, hardware for the Blue Cruise hands-free highway driving system, the Tow Technology package (with Pro Trailer Backup Assist, Trailer Brake Controller, Smart Hitch, On-Board Scales, Smart Trailer Tow Connection and Trailer Reverse Guidance), an 8-speaker audio system, wireless charging pad and a power tailgate.
It also features Flash logos on its exterior badging and is equipped with an efficient heat pump-based climate control system.
F-150 Lightning trims priced under $80,000 qualify for the $7,500 federal tax credit and Ford expects to be able to build them at an annual rate of 150,000 trucks.
Ford this week canceled unsold dealer orders on 2023 F-150 Lightnings to initiate improved quality checks on 2024 models.
Along with the Flash, the full 2024 Lightning lineup looks like this:
Pro with standard range (240 miles): $49,995
XLT with standard range: $57,495
Flash: $69,995
Lariat with extended range: $77,495
Platinum with extended range: $89,995
