Ford teases its next-gen EV project.

On X, Ford CEO Jim Farley posted several photos of the automaker’s Universal EV Project, calling it “one of the most audacious and important projects in @Ford’s history. American innovation is how we compete and win against China and the rest of the world.” The first EV, expected in 2027, will be a four-door, midsized $30,000 pickup truck.

<em>‘The team is spending countless hours getting every last drop of aero efficiency on the mid-size electric pickup,’ Farley says. </em>
<em>‘The best part is no part, but the second-best part is one that serves multiple functions.’</em>
<em>‘A Ford team member working on the front end of a prototype - one of the hundreds of prototypes the team has designed and developed to shape the face of the truck over the last few years.’</em>
<em>‘Ford will use large unicastings for the first time on the Universal EV Platform. The radically simplified aluminum unicastings condense over 146 parts into 2 and enable the assembly tree method at the Louisville Assembly Plant.’</em>
