- The Ford group is one of the last major carmakers (with Toyota and GM) to now direct its industrial and commercial policy towards electric vehicles, which was not the case two or three years ago. It is therefore aiming for a production capacity of around 600,000 100% electric vehicles worldwide by January 1, 2024, i.e. 10% of its total production capacity and 15% of its actual production on that date. In addition, Ford claims to be able to guarantee its supply of batteries, i.e. 60 GWh. Its objective is to produce by this date 270,000 Mustang Mach-E per year for North America, Europe and China, 150,000 F-Series Lightning for North America, 150,000 electric light commercial vehicles for the America and Europe, and 30,000 units of an all-new SUV for Europe (on Volkswagen platform).

- Ford thinks it can double these objectives between 2024 and 2026 (to 1,200,000 units) and triple these objectives between 2026 and 2028 (to 1,800,000 units), depending on the arrival of new 100% electric Ford models on the Volkswagen platform which should multiply in Europe and China.

- Note that this production will be divided equally between North America, Europe and China. In Europe, for example, the Cologne and Valencia factories will be put to use from 2023-2024 – even if Ford recently decided to postpone its investments in Spain – with the launch of new 100% electric models on the Volkswagen platform. These factories should together produce 200,000 cars per year by 2024, 400,000 cars per year by 2026 and 600,000 cars per year by 2028.
