The company has achieved a 32% reduction in emissions per vehicle produced, surpassing its 2025 goal of a 30% reduction from a 2010 baseline, eight years ahead of schedule. Ford is also targeting carbon neutrality for all new vehicles by 2035 and aims for its European electric vehicle and component manufacturing facilities to be carbon neutral by the same year. Ford's long-term vision includes achieving carbon neutrality across all operations, vehicles, and suppliers by 2050. This comprehensive approach underscores Ford's commitment to addressing climate change and reducing its carbon footprint in the automotive industry.
