Electric Ford F-150 Spied Showing Its Independent Rear Suspension​

There's a beefy electrified frame under that familiar body.​

Ford may not win the race to have the first electric pickup truck in production, but its electric F-150 is arguably the one people are watching the most. Even small changes to the best-selling vehicle in America are a big deal, and going electric will be the biggest change in the truck's 73-year history. These spy shots offer a taste of just how different the truck will be.

In this case, we aren't just talking about electric power. With a big electric motor at the back, the traditional solid rear axle is gone. We've known an independent suspension setup was coming, but these photos give us a good look underneath the truck to show the coilovers at the corners. Half shafts from the motor to the hubs are also visible, and as with previous spy shots, the rear motor is certainly large and in-charge for the camera.
