Overview
- Two Ford‑badged passenger EVs will be developed on Renault's Ampere platform, with Ford leading design and driving dynamics, and first deliveries planned for early 2028.
- Renault will build the models at its ElectriCity complex in northern France, tapping its EV supply base and industrial scale.
- The companies signed a letter of intent to explore co‑developing and manufacturing light commercial vehicles for both brands in Europe.
- Ford says the Valencia (Almussafes) plant remains critical to its European passenger‑car plan, yet no specific multienergy model has been assigned as unions and the regional government press for meetings and clarity.
- Ford frames the alliance within a three‑pillar Europe strategy and urges EU policymakers to align CO2 targets with market adoption, expand incentives, and support jobs during the transition.
