GoKawiilFord reveals Fathom pickup's built-in bidirectional charging inverter
Ford disclosed that its upcoming sub-$30,000 Fathom electric pickup will include an onboard inverter capable of outputting over 10 kW of AC power, built into the vehicle's 'E-box' rather than requiring a separate external unit. Using the feature for home backup or grid feed-in will still require additional hardware, including a Ford Home Power Station and, for whole-home backup, a backup panel, with Ford targeting roughly 40-50 percent lower prices than its current Charge Station Pro setup.
