Comparing the 2025 Ford F-150 Lightning (from $63,345) with the 2025 Tesla Cybertruck (from $69,990). The F-150 Lightning offers 240 miles of range while the Cybertruck offers 325 miles.
Quick Take
The Lightning is the familiar truck at a lower price, while the Cybertruck brings more range and tow rating, if you can live with the look.
The F-150 Lightning starts at $63,345 with AWD, 10,000 lb of towing, Pro Power Onboard that can run a jobsite or your house in an outage, and the CarPlay and Android Auto support the Tesla skips. The Cybertruck starts at $69,990 with up to 350 miles of range, standard air suspension, and 11,000 lb of towing in AWD form.
Availability cuts the other way in this matchup: Ford ended Lightning production in December 2025, so only remaining dealer inventory is available, while the Cybertruck is in full production with Tesla's Supercharger network behind it.
Bottom line: pick up a Lightning if you want a conventional, proven truck (likely with end-of-run discounts), or the Cybertruck if maximum range, charging convenience, and towing capacity outweigh its polarizing design.
