As before, none of the Mustang Mach-E models with the Extended Range battery pack will qualify for the revamped federal EV tax credit.

In a proposed and patented charging connector, Ford would use a magnetic system to help align physical charge pins precisely.

Vast pools of EVs could help smooth the grid during peak times, reducing the need to ramp up dirtier generation sources.

The Ford F-150 Lightning looks much like the gasoline F-150, but it drives better in almost every respect.

While the Ford F-150 Lightning was briefly on the official GSA list of available vehicles, it's not available for order right now.

In roughly two years, Ford accelerated production to meet demand and has already made as many Mach-Es as it originally planned over five years.

Hybrids carry an average price premium of $1,700 over non-hybrid internal-combustion vehicles, but that's offset in fuel savings after about four years.

Ford is giving its Escape lineup a sporty design treatment and more tech features, but it doesn't see that selling more high-mpg hybrids.

The base 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning Pro now costs nearly 30% more than it did just over a year ago; Ford says that it's supply-chain related.

Non-negotiable pricing will be a core tenet of new dealer agreements permitting the sale of the company's EVs.

Models with the larger 91-kwh pack and all-wheel drive gain 13 miles of range, to 290 miles of EPA-estimated range, according to Ford.

The Ford Mustang Hybrid was originally announced in 2017 and was slated to debut in 2020 on the current-generation Mustang platform.

Inflation and supply chain issues have claimed another victim, the 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning.

The prototype robot uses a camera to guide the charging connector into position, with tech that might eventually be put to use for autonomous vehicles.

A series of business decisions aimed at battery and raw materials supply will help put Ford in the position to build a much higher number of EVs than previously targeted.

An issue with the high-voltage system in the Mach-E might lead to a loss in power, but an over-the-air remedy due next month prevent it.

The automakers face off versus a coalition of 17 state governments opposing a significant portion of the auto industry and rallying for greater emissions

Ford CEO Jim Farley pointed to the LFP battery chemistry—and its cost of about 20% less than other lithium-ion chemistries—as one way to meet Tesla and Chinese automakers on margins. But it will take a lot more than that—including a new direct-sales model.

By the time most affected owners get the required notice of recall, delivered in the mail, their car will likely already be fixed.

The plug-in hybrid crossover might not add up for four-season commuters—but it also lacks the design- and tech-savvy of Ford's other recent plug-in models.
