Ford is losing billions of dollars on EVs, and CEO Jim Farley isn’t afraid to admit their vehicles are not the most efficient.

I’m guessing that’s why he drives a Chinese-made Xiaomi SU7 electric vehicle.

Not joking. Here he is on “The Fully Charged Podcast”:

This is what he drives.

The CEO of Ford!

The internet had some thoughts:

From the New York Post:

Jason Isaac, who heads the American Energy Institute, took aim at Farley for shunning US-made technology.

‘Jim Farley’s recent admission that he drives a Chinese-made electric vehicle is a slap in the face to the thousands of hardworking employees at Ford Motor Company,’ Isaac told National Review.

‘At a time when Ford is receiving billions of dollars in subsidies from American taxpayers to support domestic EV production, it is deeply troubling that the company’s chief executive would choose a Chinese product over an American vehicle his own company manufactures,’ he added.

I’m hoping — HOPING — Farley is just over here looking into the Chinese technology and learning from the competitor.
