CTOnews.com, Aug. 23 (Xinhua) Ford recently filed a patent application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office describing an "aerial power-up" system for electric vehicles. The name suggests that the patent may have been inspired by the aerial refueling operation of military aircraft.

The benefit was submitted to the United States Patent and Trademark Office on February 15, 2021 and announced on August 18, 2022. According to the application, the technology allows the Fmur150 Lightning to recharge other electric vehicles while dragging them, even when the vehicle is just following, that is, the two cars can be recharged while driving.

Because Ford Fmur150 Lightning electric pickup truck supports car-to-car charging function, this service can be easily realized. But it is uncertain whether there will be enough demand, which may be worth it for those who value time over money and do not want to wait at the charging station.

CTOnews.com learned that at the end of May this year, Ford Fmuri 150 Lightning officially began delivery. since its release, Ford Fmuri 150 Lightning has accumulated 200000 orders. driven by a large number of orders, Ford has rapidly increased its production and now plans to reach its annual production target of 150000 vehicles by the end of next year.
