Is the end nigh for Ford's EVs?

No need to worry... i'm sure there will be a bailout somewhere in the future. It's only money...

Yea, we can always extend the national debt by another trillion or so.

Fords error was in as always Not listening to the Public and dealerships.EV,s are currently expensive and therefore a limited market. If you check out the advanced technology of the Nio which has an EV capable of 600 miles of range And are putting in place in China battery exchange in less than a minute . Toyota and Mazda took a wait and see approach with Toyota advancing its Hybrid power train into nearly every model it builds and in 2025 100% of Camry models will be Hybrid. Ford has placed too many eggs into the basket of the F150 Lightning truck trying to be first to market only to be embarrassed ( 2024. Models are on hold because of limited sales and Quality issues) and the Mach E is Beautiful but not a value at current pricing as well as 50% depreciation in first year. I believe in EV Tech but it only makes sense for commercial vehicle because of the ability to depreciate and reduced expense of maintenance as for the rest of us maybe someday but I’d rather see a full lineup of hybrid models by Ford.

Say what?

BYD Seagull EV, starts out at $9,700 (I’m assuming locally in China but these might be produced in other locations)

Has Ford CEO worried…
