Yea, exactly. My niece ain't happy that those models lack the Subaru "character" that she likes in her Crosstrek.   Still, it's embarrassing that Subaru, a smaller automaker that hasn't really given a shit about EV until recently, will have more EV models in its U.S. vehicle lineup this year than Ford, whose head honcho has been talkin' about Model T moment with EV and about competing with Tesla for at least the past five years.

Something in a two-tone, that's about as actual retro as it would get, I'd agree.   At least until 2028. Then if there isn't a 20th Anniversary Funkmaster Flex model, I'm going to be VERY upset. 😄

It takes a long time to turn the ship around and it also shows how heavily Ford was committed to a 100% BEV future.   and Ford says $30K starting prices but you just know Ford wants $50k customers. its the same old worn out strategy of BS “pricing”

Not to mention we don't even know if we're gonna get a next gen mach-e. If we do, it could be gas powered. 

There were multiple reports last year that it was delayed until mid-2028. 

This is BS man. I get changes in strategy, but Farley is so focused on chasing the latest shiny thing that it feels like he can't make progress in any one particular direction. Hopefully Ford starts to get their shit together and sticks with stuff, so we can actually get some new products relatively soon. 

Yeah, at least some sort of design concept would be nice.

All of their EV models are direct rebadges - Solterra, Getaway, Trailseeker (I think that's the name of it?).

You won’t see those vehicles because Ford has nothing to show us besides the current vehicle with EREV badge and nothing done on the inside…..

For years, Ford has been telling anyone who would listen that hybrids, PHEV and EREV were all unnecessary complications and no, BEVs were it. Now, Ford has to unwind all the heavy commitments to BEVs and redirect development funding back to Ford Blue, find engineers capable of doing the developments and big part, start getting products on the conveyor. I don’t see any of that happening inside the next two years.   There’s an awful lot of emphasis being put on next year’s midsized BEV pickup and this Is an example of Ford getting caught up in its own expectation/mission accomplished loop. Get back to what means something to customers now, not how much we can charge them.
