High prices remain one of the biggest obstacles to the adoption of electric vehicles. According to Edmunds.com data, in April, the average U.S. consumer spent $59,900 on an electric vehicle, about $11,000 higher than the average transaction price of a car in the United States. Analysts have slashed their electric ratings after the U.S. Congress decided to repeal federal electric vehicle tax credits and remove a number of supporting policy supportsCar salesAnticipate.
Despite this, Ford and its competitors have made some progress in vehicle pricing: since January 2023, the actual transaction price of electric vehicles in the U.S. market has fallen by 7.4% (excluding inflation), and 19 pure electric models are currently priced below the average market purchase price, including the Ford Mustang Mach-E electric model. “We have to compete on affordability, not only in the U.S. automotive industry, but on a global scale,” said Bob Holycross. ”

At present, Ford engineers are calculating the data of the extended-range electric vehicle, and it is reported that this model only uses a small gasoline engine to charge the large-capacity battery. Although internal combustion is still involved, this innovative drivetrain provides a range that far exceeds the range of a typical electric vehicle. Bob Holycross emphasized: “This technology will be an integral part of the technology system that we must carefully evaluate. What we really need to pay attention to is the ‘zero-emission mileage’ indicator, not just pure electric range. ”
