The 2025 Ford F-150 Lightning brings a few updates to the table, including the addition of an all-new exterior aesthetic package. That brings the total to three optional packages offered on the electric pickup, and below, Ford Authority outlines exactly what’s included in each one, including their pricing, content, and availability by trim level where applicable.

In addition to the aforementioned Dark Elements Package, the 2025 Ford F-150 Lightning receives other notable changes, including the addition of vBlueCruise 1.4, while maximum DC fast charging has improved from 450 amps to 500 amps.

Pricing didn’t budge compared to the 2024 model year F-150 Lightning. The base XLT trim carries a starting price of $62,995, not including destination freight charges. Production is handled at the Rouge Electric Vehicle Center, currently in full swing as of January 2025.
