It may be because they view the F-series as a platform. So they are adding "all-electric" as a feature to the F-series platform. Along with hybrid.

  Article's real title is "'We're going to electrify the F-Series,' Ford exec says" which is more ambiguous than the misleading HN edit.

    That's the in-page <h1>-title, the HN title is taken from the page's <title>-title, which is different. <title>Ford: We're going to make F-Series all-electric</title> <h1>'We're going to electrify the F-Series,' Ford exec says</h1>

  But then the sentence still isn't right. You'd have to say "We're going to add all-electric to F-Series" or "We're going to make all-electric for F-Series."

    "Ford: We're going to make an all-electric F-Series"

    Articles are often dropped from titles: "Were going to make (an) F-Series all-electric". It's a bit ambiguous in this case.
