Motor Trend First Drive of F-150 LightningPowertrain is actually bad for crash management, You have to plan out what to do with the engine when in a major impact as it doesn't really absorb energy so much as just become a rock that drives itself into the passenger compartment. Current design is to push the engine down so it would create leg injury if it actually penetrated the passenger compartment. The rule now is to fold the wheel to use as a block to push the engine toward the center. It spreads the energy across the firewall and gives driver and passenger leg protection.
Electric vehicles will do the same thing with the wheels but the whole frontal structure holds up much better and can collapse at a consistent rate as it's all crumble zone.
Mach-e, Lighting, and e-transit show that Ford is focused on great electric vehicles.This truck will change a lot of perceptions of what an electric truck is and will get many buyers to consider them.Wed, 11 May 2022 22:37:52 +0000
