Think Big Picture: Ford's 2024 EV Adventures

Thu Feb 06 2025
Ford's EV journey has been quite the rollercoaster In 2024 the company faced an electrifying challenge. They lost big money in their electric vehicle division, nearly 5. 1 billion dollars, just short of their losses from 2024. Although the company's revenue from its gasoline cars helped to make up a part of the loss Ford still must face the challenge of a 5. 5 billion dollar loss. This dramatic drop in earnings for 2025 is due to market uncertainty the anticipated reduced prices for cars and the planned release of new vehicles. This drop in earnings paints a picture of the longer-term investment that Ford will require to cover initial losses and implement strategies to become more competitive. Despite the ups and downs of starting a new business, Ford's formidable gas car division is still an main contributor to the company’s revenue. Ford had a net income of 5. 9 billion dollars Overall, while Ford is feeling the pinch and having a tough time Shellacking competition is proving to be a challenge. Just as GM has already realized Ford’s still expandingEV offerings in the market. A prime example of this are GM’s Chevy and Cadillac models Ford only has 3 battery-electric vehicles for sale. This lack of electric car models is not surprising as Ford is probably more focused on the development and innovation that is not visible to the public eye.
