Ford has canceled its upcoming three-row all-electric SUV, the company said during a media briefing which InsideEVs attended. The American automaker previously announced that it would delay the 350-mile battery-powered family hauler from 2025 to 2027, but it has now decided to end production plans altogether.
Instead of going down the pure electric route for its upcoming three-row SUV, Ford will turn to a hybrid system as the powertrain of choice. The company didn’t say when the next hybrid family SUV would debut.
Ford isn’t giving up on future all-electric vehicles, but it is cutting back capital spending on EVs by 10%. The first next-gen battery-powered model will be a commercial van set to go into production in Ohio in 2026, followed by two new pickup trucks in 2027.
