i believe the engine is made here in the USA.
It’s not. There is no way that they are going to produce an engine here unless they vast majority of them are used in vehicle production here. The cost of freight is to expensive and the risk of having them on the sea for 6 weeks minimum is to great.
They will produce vehicles here for export if the receiving country has similar regulations that do not require to many alterations, however if the regulations drive to high of a “uniqueness” to the car or engine, then they will make it in a region of the world that can accomodate the production more uniformly.
Ford has a deal with PSA under which Ford provides larger diesel engines for the European truck market and Peugeot reciprocates by providing the light-duty automotive diesels for Ford.
