Ford is undergoing a significant restructuring effort, as the company merges its electric vehicle (EV) and manufacturing units into a single entity. This move comes as Doug Field, a key figure in Ford's EV development, has left the company. Field, a former Apple executive, played a crucial role in the development of Ford's EV strategy and the launch of its popular Mustang Mach-E model. The merger of the EV and manufacturing units is expected to streamline Ford's operations and improve its ability to produce and deliver EVs to consumers, but the departure of Field raises questions about the company's long-term EV strategy.
