Ford, one of the giant companies that has recently entered the electric car industry, has already managed to establish itself in the industry. The company has proven that it can also be successful in electric vehicles with the F-150 Lightning, Mustang Mach-E and E-Transit models. Today, Ford came up with an electric vehicle with a completely different concept.
The 1978 model F-100 pickup truck, which has a memorable design of a period, has been completely renewed by Ford. Although the originality was preserved in the design of the pickup truck, it was also embellished with modern design lines. Of course, the biggest change in the vehicle took place in the engine compartment.
Nostalgia and today’s most harmonious examples:
Introduced as the Ford F-100 Eluminator, the nostalgic-futuristic pickup truck has a four-wheel drive electric motor. The pickup truck can produce 480 horsepower and 859 Nm torque with its Eluminator engine developed by Ford Performance Parts. However, the batteries in the 2021 Mustang Mach-E are also included in this pickup truck.
When we compare the vehicle with its original and refurbished form, we see that there are few design touches that make the vehicle modern. Color selection and wheel designs are the main design elements that bring this vehicle to the present day. We can see both nostalgic and modern lines at the same time in the interior design of the vehicle rather than the exterior design.
Those who want to buy the renovated version of this legendary pickup truck will still have to wait for a while. Because the pickup truck was only introduced as a concept. On the other hand, if you want to electrify such an old vehicle, you can buy the Eluminator engine that Ford uses in this vehicle for $3,900 and install it on your vehicle. With this engine, Ford aims to convert old vehicles to electric without producing electric vehicles directly.
