Scope 3 accounts for ••• of total emissions.
Ford Motor Company, a prominent US-based entity in the motor vehicles, trailers and semi-trailers industry, has established ambitious commitments to reduce its carbon emissions and address climate change.
For the reporting year 2025, Ford reported a total of approximately 337.6 billion kg CO2e in emissions. This comprised about 1.01 billion kg CO2e from Scope 1 (direct emissions), and approximately 1.17 billion kg CO2e from Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased electricity, steam, heating and cooling). The vast majority of their emissions, approximately 276.1 billion kg CO2e, fall under Scope 3, primarily from the use of sold products.
Ford has committed to significant emission reductions. They aim for a 76% reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2035, using 2017 as a baseline year. This target is approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and aligns with a 1.5°C trajectory. Furthermore, Ford aims to reduce Scope 3 emissions from the use of sold products by 50% per vehicle kilometre by 2035, compared to a 2019 baseline.
Looking ahead, Ford is targeting carbon neutrality globally by 2050. This includes a commitment for all new vehicles to be zero-emission by 2035. In Europe, specific targets include carbon-neutral EV and EV component manufacturing facilities by 2035, extending this to Tier 1 suppliers and logistics operations for EU production sites and customer deliveries. Ford is also working to ensure their suppliers establish their own science-based GHG reduction targets.
