Ford Motor Co. has announced a significant shift in its vehicle production strategy, delaying the launch of new electric vehicles (EVs), including a three-row electric SUV and an electric pickup truck, from 2025 to 2027. The company now plans to introduce these EVs in 2027, attributing the delay to a slowdown in EV demand globally and a $4.7 billion loss in its electric division. In place of its all-electric vehicle lineup, Ford is expanding its focus on hybrid vehicles, aiming to offer hybrid variants for each gasoline-powered vehicle in its North American lineup by 2030. This strategic pivot mirrors Toyota's approach and comes amid broader industry trends of slowing EV sales growth in the U.S. and concerns over market readiness for a full transition to electric mobility. Ford's decision will also extend the layoff of approximately 2,700 workers in Canada, who were initially set to begin building the electric SUV in 2025 at the company's Oakville, Ontario plant, contrasting with a $7.5 billion profit in other areas of its operations.
