Story on Electrek with an interesting quote from Chris Jim Farley.
https://electrek.co/2022/02/08/ford-ceo-rival-tesla-producing-enough-electric-vehicles/
What my biggest take-away is it is fantastic seeing legacy auto take this stuff seriously finally. Ford still strikes me as one of the legacy companies most likely to be around in 10 years.
Maybe? Seems like a lot of assumptions built into this statement.“Jim Farley” said:“This is in addition to our battery sourcing in China and Europe. We are well on our way to achieve at least a 40% mix of BEVs by 2030, with strong margins and equal to our higher market share in the key high-profit, high-volume segments we compete. For example, the F-150 Lightning, if we had full production today to meet our current demand, we would rival the Model Y as the leading BEV nameplate in the U.S. market.”
