Recently, Ford Motor announced through an online conference that it will launch seven pure electric models in the European market by 2024, three of which will be based on the MEB platform of Volkswagen Group. In terms of models, the seven new cars mainly cover SUV models of various levels of subdivision, including the pure electric version of the PUMA model, a mid-size SUV and a sports car. In addition, Touraco and The Transit, which play an important role in the European commercial vehicle market, will also launch electrified models.
According to foreign media speculation, the medium-sized SUV mentioned in the press conference is likely to be the first model produced after the new Ford plant in Cologne, Germany, is put into use, and the overall size of the car may be similar to the Volkswagen ID.4, and the currently known information is that the mileage of the new car will be close to 500km. In addition, Ford plans to launch the car within the year and will officially mass produce it next year.

In addition, the pure electric version of the PUMA model will be launched in 2024, while the Iber model will be completely discontinued this year. At present, the most anticipated of these upcoming new cars is probably the mysterious "sports car".

In order to fully complete the electrification transformation, Ford has also made moves in the field of commercial vehicles. Among them, the pure electric version of the Trans Shun Custom van and the multi-purpose vehicle Tourio Consumer will be withdrawn next year. By 2024, the smaller Courier in the Transit and Toureo car series will also launch an electric car line. Coupled with the pure electric Quanshun E-Transit and Mach-E, which are already on the market, Ford is one step closer to the goal of electrifying all product lines in 2030. In addition, the company plans to completely discontinue internal combustion engine-powered models in the European market in 2030.
