What size battery is in the Ford EV?

Ford uses multiple battery sizes across its electric vehicles. The two most common packs in the current lineup are 68 kWh and 88 kWh for the Mustang Mach-E, and 98 kWh and 131 kWh for the Ford F-150 Lightning.


In detail, the exact pack size depends on the model, year, and trim. The Mustang Mach-E is offered with a Standard Range battery of about 68 kWh gross capacity and an Extended Range battery of about 88 kWh gross capacity. The F-150 Lightning is offered with a Standard Range battery of about 98 kWh gross and an Extended Range battery of about 131 kWh gross. Other Ford electric vehicles and future models may use different pack sizes; always verify the exact figure on the vehicle's window sticker or Ford's official specification pages for the specific model you are considering.


Mustang Mach-E battery options


The Mach-E comes with two primary battery sizes. The list below identifies the two options by gross pack capacity that Ford has offered for this model.



  • 68 kWh gross battery pack (Standard Range)

  • 88 kWh gross battery pack (Extended Range)


These figures refer to the gross capacity of the battery pack. Usable energy and real-world range depend on drivetrain configuration, wheel size, climate, and other factors.


Ford F-150 Lightning


The F-150 Lightning is available with two battery configurations, designed to balance range and payload for different work needs.



  • 98 kWh gross battery pack (Standard Range)

  • 131 kWh gross battery pack (Extended Range)


As with the Mach-E, the stated capacities are gross pack sizes. Actual usable energy and range vary with drivetrain, configuration, and operating conditions.


For buyers, the practical takeaway is that Ford does not ship all its EVs with a single battery size. The exact pack on a given vehicle will depend on the model and trim, and the most reliable way to confirm is to check the window sticker or Ford’s official product pages for that model year.


Summary


Ford’s all-electric lineup uses at least two battery sizes per model in many cases. Specifically, the Mustang Mach-E offers 68 kWh and 88 kWh packs, while the F-150 Lightning offers 98 kWh and 131 kWh packs. Always verify the exact battery size for a specific vehicle and year via official Ford specifications or the window sticker, as capacities can change with updates and regional offerings.
