That is such an odd name for a passenger vehicle.

At the moment it feels like every other country is being treated like the enemy by USA, just sayin’

Absolutely but I’m looking at the irony of the preferences of the two governments as the rest of the world is about to get its pockets picked by China’s aggressive pricing.. Not critical of the US policy but I think it’s something that needs to be monitored and if direct investment is warranted, do that in lieu of EV tax credits?

While we’re at it get rid of the ridiculously outdated DOT lighting regulations.

China’s battery costs are vastly different in part due to govt subsidies.

You know what’s ironic here? The EREV version has 104 KwHr battery that’s larger  than the base Lightning (98 KwHr) plus a 1.5 EB range extender… How odd that China is about to produce this. whale Ford was claiming that big battery costs in electric vehicles were not helping its bottom line…   Ford is definitely a corporate full of conflicting views…

This might come as a shock to some people but a lot of buyers like that sort of style but the idea of higher prices inflated by tariffs? Not so much.

Will anyone outside China care for a boring unibody sedan from Ford & Lincoln?  

These sound like the kind of names you'd get if you asked a bunch of 5 year olds to name the class pet lol. I hate it, and love it at the same time. 

The biggest improvement in emissions and average car fleet fuel economy came in the 1970s and 1980s  where car fuel economy average went from 13 mpg to 27 mpg, mostly helping to eliminate smog in large  city areas. CAFE has now become more of an impediment to progress and efficiency thanks to its overly high fuel economy targets for cars versus Trucks and Utilities.     I think it’s time for a complete tear up and redo of CAFE to reflect the types of vehicles being produced today, the original target (cars) have mostly been replaced by Utilities and Crew Cab Pickups that have much softer targets that everyone seems to want. I think the CAFE limits Aare now  so distorted that they actually work against the  kind of fuel efficiency possible with lighter lower cost vehicles.   I’ll get off the soap box now….
