"Over the next few years, the
Ford car portfolio in North America will transition to two vehicles — the best-selling
Mustang and the all-new Focus Active
crossover coming out next year," the statement reads. "The company is also exploring new 'white space' vehicle silhouettes that combine the best attributes of cars and utilities, such as higher ride height, space and versatility."
By 2020, Ford says 90 percent of its portfolio in North America will be trucks, SUVs and
commercial vehicles. This move is due to consumer demand and product profitability.
The company also announced that it is committed to developing "new propulsion choices," indicating it would add
hybrid powertrains to the
F-150, Mustang,
Explorer,
Escape and upcoming Bronco. It also announced it will produce an
EV starting in 2020 that will be a "performance utility," and that there will be 16 battery-electric vehicles by 2022.
