The Ford Lightning offers nearly all the features that made its gasoline-powered predecessor America’s most popular vehicle for decades, plus a bunch of things it couldn’t possibly cram into the old version. Perhaps its biggest flexes are evident when parked: a massive frunk that doubles as a cooler and bi-directional electricity that can power a house for days. What’s unique: With a starting price under $40,000, Ford’s big EV is among the most affordable on the market.
