2027 Ford Fathom Electric Pickup Details Emerge
New images show the camouflaged 2027 Ford Fathom, a $30,000 electric pickup. It will debut fully in 2027 on a new platform with NACS charging.
Ford CEO Jim Farley has shared new images and a video of the heavily camouflaged 2027 Ford Fathom electric pickup truck. The vehicle, which will start at an MSRP of $28,350, is scheduled for a full reveal and the opening of pre-orders in early 2027, with customer deliveries beginning later that same year.
While the camouflage obscures details, the overall shape appears conventional for a pickup truck. The Fathom represents a significant move for Ford as it aims to bring an affordable electric truck to market.
Pricing and Equipment
The Ford Fathom will start at $28,350, aligning with a $30,000 target price set in 2025. After adding a $1,595 destination charge, the minimum cost reaches $29,945. According to the source, this base price is for a model equipped with a "standard-range battery," implying a future higher-capacity option.
Ford states the Fathom will come well-equipped even in its base form. Standard features will include BlueCruise capability with integrated Apple Maps, compatibility with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a large high-resolution touchscreen, a digital car key, and bi-directional power export. The truck will have four doors and seating for five, offering more interior passenger space than a Toyota RAV4.
Platform and Design
The Fathom will be the first vehicle built on Ford's new Universal EV (UEV) platform and the first using Ford's new assembly tree manufacturing process at the Louisville Assembly Plant. Designed as a mid-size electric pickup, Ford says it won't look much like a traditional truck such as the F-150.
The vehicle will include a frunk, or front trunk, though the bed size is not yet known. Its design prioritizes affordability.
Battery, Range, and Charging
The truck features a 400-volt LFP battery system and 48-volt auxiliary electrical architecture, using a cell-to-pack design with structural prismatic cells. The source provides a speculative estimate for the standard-range battery capacity, based on Ford's previous comments.
| Specification | Detail (Estimate) |
|---|---|
| Standard Battery Capacity | ~51 kWh |
| Predicted Range | 200-220 miles (speculative) |
| Future Option | A 300-mile range version mentioned |
Charging will be via the NACS (North American Charging Standard) port. Both DC fast charging and AC charging will use NACS. The port is located on the rear-left driver's side, making it compatible with Tesla's current Supercharger setup. Ford was spotted earlier this year testing its mid-size electric pickups at Tesla Superchargers.
Availability Timeline
Pre-orders for the Fathom will open concurrently with its full unveiling in early 2027. First customer deliveries are planned for later in 2027. The source expects more details to leak as the debut date approaches.
