Electric Ford F-150's shocking secret revealed
Ford is working on an electric F-150 pickup that will be going on sale in a couple of years, but its powertrain isn't the only thing that makes it special. A prototype spotted on public roads reveals it may also have a fully-independent suspension.

What’s believed to be a prototype for the upcoming high performance utility vehicle has been photographed outside of the automaker’s Dearborn, Mich., development center. The vehicle is wearing a bulky wrap meant to disguise its details while it’s driven on public roads for real-world testing.

Ford has described the vehicle as being “Mustang-inspired” and the single design sketch it has released shows a sleek SUV that meets that description. The covering obscures the vehicle’s profile and hides its rear doors.

Technical details are still secret, but Ford says it will have a range of over 300 miles per charge and “go like hell."

It was originally announced under the working name Mach One, but last year Ford filed a trademark for the Mach E name, which it could end up using. Whatever it ends up being called, it is scheduled to begin production in Mexico next year and The Detroit Bureau reports that it will be publically unveiled this November.
