As has historically been the case, the debut of the all-new 2024 Ford Mustang was quickly followed by the release of a large number of new parts and accessories for the S650 generation pony car. Long one of the most popular models to customize, the newest Mustang carries on that tradition of giving owners countless options when it comes to altering the looks and performance of their rides, with Roush Performance continuing to add to that list.

In a surprising turn of events, Ford CEO Jim Farley announced in a statement on Thursday that his company has canceled its plans to transform its plant in Oakville, Ontario, Canada into an electric vehicle (EV) assembly hub.

Ford Scraps Canadian EV Plans, Replaces Them With Super Duty Trucks

Ford has announced a shift in its manufacturing strategy at its plant in Oakville, Ontario, swapping EV production for Super Duty trucks. This change comes after Ford had already postponed the launch of its planned three-row electric SUVs at Oakville Assembly facility from 2025 to 2027, citing slower growth in demand for electric vehicles. According to Reuters, the Blue Oval remains committed to the model and is still planning for a 2027 launch but has not disclosed the new location for their production.

Ford Chooses Trucks Instead Of EVs

Ford Motor will expand production of its large Super Duty trucks to a Canadian plant that was previously set to be converted into an all-electric vehicle hub. The new plans include investing about $3 billion to expand Super Duty production, including $2.3 billion at Ford's Oakville Assembly Complex in Ontario, Canada, Ford said Thursday.
