Ford cuts electric F 150 Lightning production as demand dwindles

Looks like the market is drying up for the electric vehicles that people keep pushing on Americans, but Americans are fighting back with their wallets and buying other cars instead. There's been so many electric vehicles that suffered setbacks, like low battery life in cold weather, out of control battery costs, and not being able to tow things as far as gas powered vehicles. The American Tribune reported:

Ford now plans to produce just 1,600 Ford F-150 Lightnings a week at its Rouge Electric Vehicle Center in Dearborn, Michigan. That plant, which assembles all of Ford’s electric pickup trucks, had previously announced that it would produce 3.200 of the EV trucks a week.

Automotive News obtained a copy of the memo that Ford sent out about the planned production cuts. Reporting on the memo, that outlet said that the EV production cuts are in the pipeline thanks to “changing market demand” surrounding electric vehicles. Ford, for its part, told CNBC that it plans to “continue to match production with customer demand.”
