The decision, confirmed on December 15, 2025, marks a dramatic retreat from the company\u2019s once-ambitious battery-electric vehicle (BEV) targets as it grapples with mounting financial losses and cooling consumer demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The automaker revealed it will take a massive $19.5 billion USD write-down related to its EV business, acknowledging that the \u201coperating reality has changed.\u201d Since 2023, Ford has lost an estimated $13 billion USD on electric vehicles, with per-vehicle losses exceeding $50,000 USD. CEO Jim Farley described the move as a \u201ccustomer-driven shift,\u201d pivoting capital toward higher-return opportunities in hybrids and gas-powered trucks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the pure EV version of the Lightning is dead, the nameplate will survive as an Extended-Range Electric Vehicle (EREV). This next-generation hybrid model will utilize electric motors for propulsion but feature an on-board gasoline generator to recharge the battery, targeting a range of over 700 miles and better towing performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ford\u2019s restructuring also includes renaming its Tennessee Electric Vehicle Center to the Tennessee Truck Plant, which will now produce affordable gas-powered pickups instead of next-gen EVs. Despite this retreat, Ford isn\u2019t abandoning electricity entirely; the company is shifting its pure EV focus toward a new \u201cUniversal EV Platform\u201d for smaller, more affordable models, starting with a midsize pickup slated for 2027.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a seismic shift for the American automotive landscap [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6076,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[223],"tags":[118,7],"class_list":["post-6075","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-car","tag-f-150","tag-ford"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6075","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6075"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6075\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6077,"href":"http:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6075\/revisions\/6077"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6076"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6075"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6075"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6075"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
