Acceleration of 0-60 MPH in 3 seconds seems ridiculous to me for a pickup truck, but I suppose that if towing an 11,000-pound trailer, it would still be able to accelerate to highway speeds up a steep grade and into the wind in reasonable time. 
Honestly, I wish RVs were designed more like that Rivian and less like a regular house on wheels. The design seems well thought out and functional, not just a bunch of random ideas thrown together. Thanks for posting video. |
The F-150 Lightning will be around the same "speed" (I've heard 0-60 "under 4" ish statements).
I do think that simply is a consequence of having to tow something--need that much power. Thus as a side effect of that you get great unloaded acceleration.
