Source: Lordstown’s EV pickup has a worryingly short 174 miles of EPA range

Summary
The EPA has given the Lordstown Motors Endurance pickup a range rating of just 174 miles, well below the 250 miles originally promised and far lower than its competitors. This rating could limit the vehicle’s appeal and compounds Lordstown’s existing production and partnership issues.

Fact

  • 🔋 Lordstown Motors’ Endurance pickup has been rated with a range of just 174 miles by the EPA, compared to the 240 miles of the Ford F-150 Lightning and 289 miles of the Rivian R1T.
  • 🚚 The low range could limit the appeal of the Endurance to customers who only need short-distance hauls, such as contractors who make infrequent stops in a single city.
  • 💰 Lordstown is already facing other troubles, including production issues, the loss of GM’s stake in the company, and threats from manufacturing partner Foxconn to pull out over alleged stock-related breaches of contract.
