Overview:
Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

State of Charge channel on YouTube did some research (and speculation) and believes the battery will be a 51 kWh LFP.
That would mean the likely range on a mid-sized pickup (depending on the aero, wheel size, tires, etc.) is about 200 miles or less.
It is also confirmed to be 400V architecture. So its likely to be fairly slow charging (compared to the best possible charge speeds in recent EVs).
Informed speculation for those who are interested.
I hope not. I've taken my extended-range Lightning halfway across the country and back, and in certain areas you need all that range. I can't imagine having 200 miles or less, but then maybe they're explicitly not aiming at this being a vehicle you can use for taking the family on a road trip the way that the Lightning is.
