However, with rapid advances in technology and features, the Lightning may already be behind by 2023.

Many other manufacturers have begun offering advanced features such as advanced semi-autonomous driving,

full hybrid drivetrains, over-the-air software updates, and increased levels of luxury and convenience.

While these features may not all be available on the Ford F-150 Lightning in 2023, many of its competitors will likely offer them by then.

This could make the Lightning look outdated in comparison and result in fewer buyers for this groundbreaking truck.
