Pretty anemic numbers if you ask me. In those years the Chevy Malibu sold 5x-10x as much, and actually MADE money.

Good. China has a HUGE lead in moving toward electronic vehicles.
Now can we please change to some other power source, and get rid of Lithium.
Sodium?
Lots, and lots, and lots of Americans do not live where it is warm all year.

“Legacy automobile companies ... have been addicted to their gas-powered models “ - Kirk O’neil, azzho1e
Recall under Brak Ubama that the idea was to make gas super expensive and them mandate the obamamobile bbq on wheels the Volt.
So this kind of stupidity has been the plan for awhile.
I am happy with my Fusion hybrid but was disappointed when Ford discontinued the line in 2020. I was hoping to stay with four-door sedans but would consider moving to a compact SUV if I had to.
Maybe a BMW 3 series?

If you like hybrid sedans, how about a Toyota Crown?
EVs are doomed. Gasoline will rule the day.
Welcome to Cuba.
Hang on to your ICE vehicles
as long as possible.
There’s going to be a gradual
urgency in seeing that what
you have is in good shape and
running well. Parts and service
costs are going to go thru the
roof.
Not all can afford the purchase
price of a new car, which I
believe to be most of the US,
much less the infrastructure
required to keep your forced
buy EV at the same freedoms.
This is all about control of
the populace, folks.
The thing I like most about the Fusion was that the advanced features came standard with the hybrid version. Unfortunately, I couldn't wait for the Titanium version to come out when I bought mine.
It's now 10 years old and I must have about 40,000 miles on it. The high-voltage battery seems to be doing fine, it gets about 40 MPG, and I don't need to replace it yet.
But I'm looking ahead to the next car.
-PJ
I don’t need another car but I am considering buying a gas-powered car just to keep in my garage for when the time comes that buying them is illegal but driving them is still legal.
The goal of the electric-car madness is to limit how easily people can move.
No Chevy Camaros? Guess my 67 Camaro just went up in value.
Ford getting rid of three of its’ worst models. Cheap throwaways that they never should have made in the first place. The Transit is actually MADE in Turkey, for
Pete’s sake!
Americans will rue the day the environmental-ill were given to rule what Americans could have as a vehicle
Good? The whole EV thing is retarded.
I have 250,000 miles on my truck and the engine is about shot. So I started looking for another truck. OMG I said I’m not going to spend that much. Even a decent used one is like $40,000. I’m going to roll the dice and put a used engine in. I’m perfectly fine riding in an old brat up truck. I let the wife have the nice newer vehicle.
Coal powered cars (aka electric cars) are just another form of control just like digital currency.
