Ford CEO Jim Farley posted a picture on Twitter revealing the front corner of the company’s next electric “performance demonstrator”, which is based on the F-150 Lightning pickup truck. While it’s only a small glimpse of the new model, it appears to be in the company’s current white-and-blue Ford Performance livery, similar to the Gen3 Mustang test car.
