All-electric Ford Puma announced as part of manufacturer's electrification plans

Date: 14 March 2022   |   Author: Sean Keywood

Ford has announced plans to launch seven new EVs in Europe by 2024, including a pure-electric version of its Puma SUV.

The manufacturer said its electrification drive was part of a plan to sell more than 600,000 EVs in Europe by 2026.

The electric version of the Puma, Ford's best-selling car in the UK last year, is due to go into production in 2024.

Ford has also announced that a new medium-sized crossover EV will go into production in 2023, and a sports crossover will also enter production the following year.

Ford said the new crossover would be capable of covering 310 miles on a single charge, with more details of the model, including its name, due to be announced later this year.

In addition, four electric LCVs will also be introduced, including versions of the passenger-carrying Tourneo Custom and Tourneo Courier.

In the longer-term, Ford is targeting zero emissions for all vehicle sales in Europe, as well as carbon neutrality across its European footprint of facilities, logistics and suppliers, by 2035.

Ford of Europe chair Stuart Rowley said: "Our march toward an all-electric future is an absolute necessity for Ford to meet the mobility needs of customers across a transforming Europe.

"It's also about the pressing need for greater care of our planet, making a positive contribution to society and reducing emissions in line with the Paris Climate Agreement."
