And whomever wrote it seems to have far more questions than answers....

The Detroit News:


Ford details $3.5 billion electric vehicle battery plant to be built in Marshall

Ford Motor Co. signaled Monday that Michigan will play a central role in the Dearborn automaker's bid to secure its electric-vehicle supply chain and diversify its battery technologies.

The Blue Oval confirmed plans to invest $3.5 billion to build the first automaker-backed lithium iron phosphate battery plant in the United States. Ford is doing so with Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Ltd., or CATL, under a licensing agreement with the China-based company, the world's leading battery manufacturer.

The venture, slated to come online in 2026, will initially create 2,500 jobs. The plant, as The Detroit News previously reported, will be built on the Marshall Megasite in Calhoun County and will be called BlueOval Battery Park Michigan. It would be part of a wholly-owned Ford subsidiary and could be expanded in the future.



Did someone NOT tell Ford people don’t want EV’s?

Note: LFP batteries…..Hmmmmm….smart.

Do you mean to say that without economic fascist policies, EV's aren't as attractive an option to consumers?

Thank you DELTA, it's not a debate without the propaganda of LEFTY CLIMATE CRISIS CRAZIES who have no discernable consistent principles as to what is right and what is wrong.
So they are not principled anti-fascists, they are only against economic fascist policies for stuff they don't like?
Yes, I've read some of their other articles.

There is climate change, there is climate pollution. How detrimental is climate change? I guess that is dependant on what becomes your POV. As long as India, and China have no intention of lowering their climate pollution, climate pollution will remain high.

Ford Sinks After Halting Production, Shipments Of Electric F-150 On 'Battery Issues'



With Tesla stock soaring (and price cuts already hurting competitors' margins), Ford shares are sliding afte rthe carmaker announced that it has paused production and shipments of its electric F-150 Lightning pickup due to a potential battery issue.

As CNBC reports, the EV truck is being closely watched by investors, as it’s the first mainstream electric pickup on the market and a major launch for Ford.

The production halt adds to ongoing “execution issues” detailed to investors earlier this month by Ford CEO Jim Farley.

Ford stock price is fading on the headline...

Ford has not established a timeline for when production and the shipments will resume, Ford spokesperson Emma Bergg said.

“The team is diligently working on the root cause analysis,” Bergg said, adding the company is “doing the right thing by our customers” to resolve any potential issues before resuming production and shipments.

Bergg said the company is unaware of any incidents or issues associated with the potential battery issue. There is no stop-sale for vehicles already on dealer lots, meaning dealers can continue to sell vehicles they already have on hand.

The halt in production and shipments was first reported Tuesday by Motor Authority.

your chose the adjectives...

government subsidy is government subsidy...

and the oil industry has been given a whole bunch for a long time, despite remarkable profits for the duration...


and like other environmentally destructive industries before it, you and I and our fellow taxpayers will be on the hook for all the costs of clean-up once the business stops being profitable and the companies file for bankruptcy...we may both be young enough to see that day


but I digress....apologies to Ram, for letting myself be goaded in, close to the edge of "politics" here on neutral ground...I've been trying to avoid getting drawn in by political diatribes

When you realize how important oil and gas is to the building, operating, and defending the United States you realize why the industry receives certain subsidies to do certain things that are in the government’s interests.

Note that there is no Strategic Lithium Reserve.

We should start to bottle up sunshine and wind and hold it in underground caverns for strategic green energy reserves.

Put some huge sails and solar panels on tanks, MRAPs, war ships and stuff, then unbottle the green energy when we are called upon for another "peace keeping" war or humanity/disaster relief campaigns.

China leads the world in both battery and EV production. China already has an estimated 54 million “green jobs”, with over 4 million jobs in renewable energy. China has also announced that it will no longer build coal-fired power plants abroad and will step up support for other countries in developing green and low-carbon energy. We are behind them.

India is Thursday's child.

China is the largest CO2 polluter in the world. We are second. India is third. Look it up, it is easy to find.

China is ahead of us in EV and battery production - look it up.

But if it makes you feel better, from our perspective they are under us - at least on the globe...
