GoKawiilFord's sub-$30K Fathom EV pickup to include built-in home backup power
Ford announced that its upcoming Fathom electric pickup, priced under $30,000 and due next year, will come with vehicle-to-home power capability built directly into the truck. Unlike the earlier F-150 Lightning setup, which required a separate inverter in the wallbox to convert the truck's DC power to usable AC power, the Fathom integrates that inverter onboard, letting every unit serve as a home backup battery out of the box.
