Cox Automotive data shows Ford's F-150 Lightning topped US electric pickup sales in 2025 with 27,307 units, outselling Tesla's Cybertruck (20,237 units) despite Ford's discontinuation of the model. The segment fell 15.6% to 90,019 units overall, hit by the end of federal tax credits, high prices, and quality issues.
Certain electric vehicles from Ford and Tesla use lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) batteries, which require different charging habits than typical nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) types. Automakers recommend periodically charging these LFP batteries to full capacity to calibrate the battery management system. This practice helps maintain accuracy and longevity, despite some studies suggesting potential long-term risks.

Following Ford's announcement to end all-electric F-150 Lightning production after 2025 in favor of hybrid and range-extended models, Tesla's Cybertruck stands alone as the primary full-size pure-electric pickup in the U.S.
