Ford has said that it intends to be “the clear No. 2 electric car producer in North America over the next couple of years and eventually fight for No. 1” — however, increased competition from other legacy automakers may make that objective more difficult to achieve. Hyundai and Kia have overtaken Ford in EV sales, selling 21,467 electric cars between January and May of this year. Ford, on the other hand, sold 15,718 EVs within the same time period.
