Ford Unveils High-Performance F-150 Lightning Switchgear for Off-Road Racing

The concept vehicle, created in collaboration with RTR Vehicles, features a wider track width and higher ride height for improved off-road stability.

  • Ford has introduced a high-performance concept variant of its all-electric F-150 Lightning pickup, the F-150 Lightning Switchgear, which is designed for off-road racing.
  • The F-150 Lightning Switchgear was created in collaboration with RTR Vehicles, a performance part and complete vehicle company created by driver and drifter Vaughn Gittin Jr.
  • The Switchgear has a wider track width and a higher ride height than the standard F-150 Lightning, which improves off-road stability.
