Canada's EV mandate must be repealed, Ford Canada CEO says
Ford Canada CEO Bev Goodman said June 10 that Canada's zero-emission vehicle mandate must be repealed as the consumer appetite for electric vehicles falls dramatically short of government requirements. 'The targets on full battery-electric vehicles need to be aligned with what customers want, and customers have spoken,' she said at the Canada Automotive Summit, hosted in Vaughan, Ont., by the Automotive Parts Manufacturers' Association. Goodman said the automaker's EV sales dropped 'like a stone' to start 2025 after the $5,000 federal EV incentive program ran out of cash in mid-January. Sign up for Automotive News Canada Breaking Alerts and be the first to know when big news breaks in the Canadian auto industry. Ford Canada does not release monthly or quarterly sales results, but nationwide figures show ZEV sales in February and March slid to 20,878 vehicles. That's down 44.2 per cent compared with the same two months a year earlier, according to the latest data available from Statistics Canada. ZEV sales for February and March represented 6.6 per cent of total vehicle sales in Canada, far short of government adoption requirements. The legislated federal targets require ZEVs to account for 20 per cent of automaker sales in model year 2026, 60 per cent in 2030 and 100 per cent in 2035. Goodman said without the incentives and other enablers that will allow Canadians to go electric such as charging infrastructure, Ottawa is not positioned to deliver on its 'very aggressive' targets. The same applies to the provincial EV mandates on the books in Quebec and British Columbia, she said. 'Ultimately, it will have a negative impact, if these mandates stick, on the industry. It will have downward pressure on vehicle sales, it will have upward pressure on pricing, and those are real concerns for consumers and the industry as a whole.' Goodman said Ford and other automakers that build vehicles in Canada are engaging with Ottawa on getting the legislation repealed. Environment and Climate Change Canada, the lead federal department on the mandate, known officially as the Electric Vehicle Availability Standard, did not immediately respond to request for comment.

Ford Launches Enticing 2025 Mach-E Lease Offer for June
The 2025 Ford Mustang Mach-E may play on the name recognition of the pony car's nameplate, but it offers more utility than the famed muscle car. Ford is making it more affordable to get behind the wheel of the all-electric crossover this June, with several fantastic lease deals to choose from. In almost all cases, you can lease a new Mustang Mach-E for under $350 per month, and certain areas may get an even better deal. If you're just stepping into the world of EVs, the Ford Mustang Mach-E is both a great introductory and long-term model. Designed to meet the needs of the modern driver, the electric crossover puts practicality a step above all else without sacrificing performance and efficiency. The Mustang Mach-E is available in four trim levels for the 2025 model year: Select, Premium, GT, and Rally. Notably, however, most lease deals focus on the Select and Premium trim levels. Range anxiety is a major concern for most consumers making the leap to an EV, but the base Ford Mustang Mach-E Select features a standard 73 kWh battery good for up to 260 miles of range when paired with RWD. With that setup, the crossover boasts 264 horsepower and 387 lb-ft of torque from its sole electric motor. Upgrading to AWD reduces range to 240 miles and boosts performance to 325 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque. The Premium trim is a step up from the Select model and offers the most range of any trim level. The Mustang Mach-E Premium includes the option to maximize range by keeping the rear-wheel drivetrain and upgrading to an 88-kWh extended range battery. With that combination, the Premium trim can go as far as 320 miles on a single charge. In keeping with the Mustang's reputation, the Mustang Mach-E comes in two high-performance trims: GT and Rally. The GT features a 91 kWh battery and standard AWD, with a 280-mile range, 480 horsepower, and 600 lb-ft of torque. There's also an optional performance upgrade that boosts the instant torque to 700 lb-ft. The Rally model features top performance specs like 480 horsepower, 700 lb-ft of torque, and a 265-mile range. The top-spec trim boasts the capability to go off-road, with aspects like the damping system specifically designed to aid in drifting and sliding. Ford is offering what appears to be a nationwide lease deal on the base Mustang Mach-E Select of $344 per month for 39 months, with a $4,343 down payment. If you don't mind paying a bit more, you can step up to the Premium model with a $365 monthly payment and $4,764 due at signing. While both of those lease offers are already a bargain, Ford offers even better deals for specific locations. Residents of Los Angeles and Honolulu can get behind the wheel of a Mustang Mach-E Select for just $299 per month for a 24-month lease term, with $4,099 due at signing. In Seattle and Anchorage, you can park a Premium model in your driveway for just $349 per month for 36 months with a $5,000 down payment. New York City residents can get a Premium model upgraded with AWD and an extended range battery for a $349 monthly payment on a 36-month term and $5,299 due at signing. Both the nationwide and area-specific offers come with a 10,500-mile annual mileage allowance and are valid through July 7th. Whether you're a fan of Ford, the Mustang's heritage, or just want to give EVs a shot, the Mustang Mach-E has proven to be a practical crossover with some pep in its step. With lease offers under $350 to boot, it's a hard model to pass up! These 2025 Ford Mustang Mach-E lease deals are available until July 7th, so you still have some time to figure out which model best suits your needs. Lease offers can vary based on location, vehicle configuration, and are subject to credit approval. Advertised monthly payments don't necessarily include taxes, title, registration, or other fees.

Ford Sales Soar: Which Models are Driving the Trend
Ford Motor Company reported a 16% sales increase to 220,959 in May year-over-year, with positive gains at both Ford and Lincoln. Hybrid vehicles led the way with a 28.9% sales increase, totaling 22,719 units, with internal combustion engine sales up 17.2% to 191,517 units. In terms of segments, Ford's SUV sales saw the most significant gain at 25% to 94,595 units. Truck sales followed behind the SUV uptick at an 11.2% increase to 121,354 units. However, Ford Motor Company's electric vehicle (EV) sales plummeted 25% in May to 6,723 units. The car class saw a less dramatic decrease of 3.2% to 5,010 units, according to Ford Authority. Ford's new American Made campaign, centered around offering employee pricing, appears to primarily be fueling the company's overall sales gain as drivers strive to get ahead of tariff-imposed vehicle cost increases. Lincoln reported a 39% increase in May sales, and Ford Motor Company's total sales are up 6.1% to 930,925 vehicles compared to the first five months of 2024. The 2025 Escape was one of Ford's best-sellers in May, with sales catapulting 24% to 17,395 units. Ford's 2024 Explorer saw a 23% sales increase to 20,504 vehicles. Bronco Sport sales rose 46% to 14,472 units, and the Maverick saw a 14% gain to 15,508 deliveries. Financial analyst Dan Ives, managing director at Wedbush Securities, said "the monthly sales were better than feared and is a small step in the right direction," but added that there's "still a lot of wood to chop ahead for (CEO) Jim Farley and Ford with tariffs and demand issues," the Detroit Free Press reports. While Ford Motor Company extended its employee pricing marketing to July 6, which affects nearly all 2024 and 2025 Ford and Lincoln vehicles, the American automaker announced price hikes up to $2,000 last month on three of its Mexico-produced models: the Mach-E SUV, Maverick pickup, and Bronco Sport SUV. May represented the third consecutive year-over-year double-digit sales increase at Ford. Cox Automotive expects May sales across all automakers to rise 3.2% from last year and 2.5% from last month, but the month's sales pace will be significantly less than March and April, according to NBC. Besides weak May EV sales numbers, Ford has issued over 50 U.S. recalls in 2025, the most of any automaker. Through May 15, Volkswagen Group had issued the second-most recalls at 14. While EV sales were one of May's lowlights at Ford, the company's Mustang Mach-E experienced an 11% year-over-year sales surge to 4,724 units. Ford Motor Company stock finished at a 2.10% daily market increase and 5.6% year-over-year growth on Tuesday. With its third consecutive year-over-year double-digit sales increase and a 16% year-over-year sales increase for May, Ford has momentum that's crucial to the company mitigating trade war-related impacts, including $1.5 billion in added net costs for 2025. Ford Chair John Lawler said the automaker will adjust operations over the next 12 to 24 months in response to tariffs, but as of now, weak EV sales and regular recalls aren't significantly hurting the company's standing.
