Lordstown Endurance Pickup Truck Only Has 174 Miles Of Range

There are plenty of reasons that you probably don’t want to spend money on a Lordstown Endurance, but the biggest one is probably the extremely high risk that the company will go under. Technically, the company has produced some Endurance pickup trucks, but earlier this month, Lordstown was saying it desperately needed a cash infusion, or it was going to go bankrupt. But even if Lordstown does turn things around, the Endurance’s range is going to be a pretty big reason, too.

The Environmental Protection Agency has now released its range rating for the Lordstown Endurance, and it’s pretty bad. The electric pickup truck only has 174 miles of range. And that short range is not because it has a small battery, either. The Endurance has a 109-kWh battery. For comparison, the Ford F-150 Lightning with the smaller 98-kWh battery has an EPA-estimated range of 240 miles. So yeah, it’s not exactly competitive.
