Original: Ford's $30K Fathom electric pickup can be used as your home's battery backup without a separate inverter
Ford has revealed the Fathom, an electric pickup priced around $30,000 that can power a home during outages without requiring a separate inverter. Built-in bidirectional charging lets the truck feed electricity directly to a house, positioning it as a cheaper alternative to dedicated home battery systems and drawing attention to Ford's push into affordable electric vehicles.
Why now: The combination of a low price point and built-in home backup capability is a notable step for affordable EVs
