Ford’s internal combustion engine vehicles division, known as Ford Blue, is set to undergo significant transformations in the coming months as part of a strategy to reduce production costs and enhance profitability.
As a result of these efforts, Ford plans to significantly decrease the number of orderable combinations for its popular F-150 pickup truck. Kumar Galothra, President of Ford Blue, revealed that the upcoming 2024 model year will feature approximately 2,400 fewer parts compared to the current model. This reduction in complexity will result in fewer parts to engineer, test, and manage for quality control.
