"Ford CEO Jim Farley Addresses Consumer 'Anxiety' Surrounding EVs"
Ford CEO Jim Farley believes that consumers are experiencing "charging anxiety" rather than range anxiety when it comes to electric vehicles (EVs). He acknowledges that EVs are currently for a niche market due to their premium price, but Ford aims to address this concern by partnering with Tesla and utilizing their North American Charging Standard connector, granting Ford EV drivers access to Tesla Superchargers. Farley emphasizes that Ford will continue to offer a choice between EVs and internal combustion engine vehicles, recognizing that the F-150 Lightning is the best-selling electric pickup in the U.S. but may not be suitable for everyone.
