Ford will no longer be able to sell these cars on the market: there is no way to fix it and it is a real disaster for the company. Difficult to understand how to move.
The year did not end in the best way for the Ford, due to the news that the company has received, which cannot be opposed. Like most international brands, the US car manufacturer is also planning its production along the path towards electrification, but this has encountered the first obstacle, which can inhibit the entire journey.

A position very distant from what happened about a year ago, or towards the end of 2022. At that time 65% of dealers Ford present in the country had signed up specifically for the sale of electric cars, despite the high cost of training and equipment: around 500 thousand dollars. Investigating the 2023 sales data, a decline was found, which led to the most recent decision to curb the distribution of models between dealerships.
Ford, it’s hard to believe: stop sales, this is what will happen from now on
About half of the dealers Ford in the United States has made the decision not to sell electric vehicles in 2024, so it will not even pay for extra staff training or provide the necessary equipment to sell cars powered in a green way, with a different engine.
For now there are 1,550 dealerships present in the program Model 5half of which right in the USA. Everyone will be involved in the decision, while the manufacturer in the meantime has also scaled back the production plan for electric vehicles, which included the construction of a specific factory for batteries. At the moment there is no great concern in the company, while there is expectation on the part of the dealers regarding the investments Ford would have planned related to DC fast chargers that allow each sales lot to serve as a charging point for owners and other training activities for staff. The decision for Ford is a step backwards (ANSA) – drifts
Mary Gunsbergspokesperson for the company, spoke about the situation referring to the adoption rates of electric vehicles, which vary from country to country: “More than 50% of those who sell electric cars will cover approximately 86% of the territory of the USA. That means every resident of that 86% lives within about 20 miles of a Ford dealership that sells and services electric vehicles.” There shouldn’t be any problems, but there should be new directives.
