Upcoming Midsize Ford EV Pickup Will Be Exported

In recent weeks, we’ve learned a few details about the as-of-now-unnamed, upcoming mid-size Ford EV pickup that’s set to enter production in the next couple of years. There’s still a lot we don’t now about this future model, too, but details continue to trickle out a little at a time, helping to paint a clearer picture in that regard. The latest pertains to the availability of the new Ford EV pickup, which apparently won’t only be sold in the U.S.

Rather, the future mid-size Ford EV pickup will be built at the Louisville Assembly plant for both the U.S. and “export markets,” according to the automaker itself, a revelation that stems from the unveiling of its new universal EV platform. Such a move makes sense given the fact that Ford previously stated that its new low-cost platform is designed to help it better compete with burgeoning rivals from China. In the case of the pickup, Ford is targeting a “super affordable” $30k starting price tag.

What we also know about the future mid-size Ford EV pickup is that it will be offered exclusively in four-door guise, while owners will be able lock their gear in the bed without the need for a roof rack or trailer hitch racks. It’s expected to be closer in size to the Maverick than the Ford Ranger, and the new model will reportedly be as quick as a Mustang EcoBoost, with more room inside than a Toyota RAV4. It’s slated to launch in 2027 and tout a potential max annual capacity of 190,000 units.

The future model will reportedly offer up 51 kWh of usable energy from its LFP battery pack, which is quite tiny when compared to most EVs on the market today. However, it may also be offered with nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) batteries as well. On top of that, Ford CEO Jim Farley stated that the “sleek and digital” pickup will be able to power a home for upwards of six days, too, but towing won’t be a priority, it seems.
