The car company has trademarked the names Ranger Lightning and Maverick Lightning.
that Ford filed to trademark Ranger Lightning and Maverick Lightning with the European Union Intellectual Property Office overnight.This means that electric versions of the vehicles may well be on their way. This is not the first time we have heard of these cars. CEO Jim Farley has already hinted at their arrival.
Last year, the executive was quoted as saying:"[I] could envision producing a family of Maverick variants, including an electric model.” Then, in the launch of the F-150 Lighting, he also said that another electric truck"that's different from the F-150" was already undergoing testing.The F-150 Lightningin May of 2021.
The new patents may not indicate the introduction of new electric vehicles but rather be filed to prevent other automakers from taking the names. However, since ever more severe European emissions rules are pushing more carmakers towards electric vehicles, we would venture a guess that something is lurking behind the scenes.
