The model will appear in 2027 and will be offered both in electric and hybrid versions.
Ford plans a huge -scale repairing its approach to Europe, and the main element will be a new medium -sized crossover, which will be released in 2027 and really change the focus, AutoCar reports. The car will be made in Spain at the factory in Valencia with an annual capacity of 300 thousand cars, and it should be one of the most huge brand models in the global market.
The freshness will not replace the Kuga, but it will be released with a separate model with “multi-fences” power plants: gasoline-hybrid and completely electric. To reduce the costs, the crossover will have a similar size in kuga and use the common ingredients. The car is expected to be based on the C2 platform, which previously formed the current generation of focus, and in the first time it will receive the possibility of installing an electric drive.
The new model will be an important step in restoring Ford’s positions to Europe. After removal of the Fiesta in 2023 and the planned closure of the plant in Saarluis, where the focus was made, the average Ford line price in Europe grew the note. Releasing a more affordable crossover will help the company return to the struggle for sales volumes and at the same time reduce the average leaks. It is expected that the starting price of the new item is significantly lower than £ 40 thousand, worth electric explorer and capri, and approximately in the middle between them and the new Puma Gen-E (£ 26 thousand).
Company’s executive director Bill Ford admitted that the swift move to complete electrification was preceded: the demand for European electric cars was less than the regulators expected. Therefore, Ford depends on a combination of ice and electric units to react more flexible in market conditions.
The name of the model has not been confirmed, but Ford does not exclude the return of historic nameplates such as Focus, Zephyr or Granada.
Remember that it was previously reported that Ford was preventing focus.
