2026 Ford F-150 Lightning STX: More Range Without A Price Increase
"Ford says the STX is the result of customers' constant requests for more driving range and comfort features on the entry-level model. And I think the American auto giant delivered in a big way. With the same 123-kilowatt-hour Extended Range battery pack as the Flash fitted as standard, the 2026 F-150 Lightning STX has a targeted EPA-estimated driving range of 290 miles on a full charge-up from the 240 miles of the now-discontinued XLT model, which had a smaller, 98-kWh battery pack."
"The STX also ups the ante when it comes to ruggedness. By default, it comes with a rear e-locking differential, all-terrain wheels, a heated steering wheel and a set of off-road running boards borrowed from the gas-powered F-150 Tremor. There's a new grille with a blue accent line, STX-specific graphics on the hood and bedside, and Grabber Blue embroidered seats. Meanwhile, the options list includes a black vinyl floor if you're the kind of person who likes to get"
The STX replaces the outgoing XLT as the new entry-level retail trim while the fleet-oriented F-150 Lightning Pro remains available with a lower price and fewer features. The STX uses a 123-kilowatt-hour Extended Range battery pack as standard, yielding a targeted EPA-estimated driving range of 290 miles versus the XLT's 240 miles from a 98-kWh pack. Dual electric motors produce 536 horsepower and 775 lb-ft of torque, increasing horsepower from the XLT's 452 hp while torque remains unchanged. Standard equipment includes a rear e-locking differential, all-terrain wheels, a heated steering wheel and off-road running boards. Exterior and interior touches include a new grille with a blue accent, STX graphics, and Grabber Blue embroidered seats, with optional black vinyl flooring available. Price remains unchanged despite the larger battery and additional features.
