Ford's E-Transit Van Could Be Its Golden Goose Until New EVs Start Rolling Out In 2026
Ford Motor Co's (NYSE:F) E-Transit van is one of the only three EV offerings from the Michigan-based automaker in the U.S. and it has been driving the automaker's EV sales significantly.
福特汽车公司（NYSE：F）的E-Transit货车是这家位于密歇根州的汽车制造商在美国市场唯一的三款电动车之一，并且它显著推动了该汽车制造商的电动车销售。
E-Transit Sales And Popularity: August marks the 59th anniversary of Ford's Transit vans. While the Michigan-based automaker started delivering the Transit vans years ago, the electric version of the commercial van is relatively more recent, with deliveries beginning in the first quarter of 2022.
E-Transit销售和受欢迎程度：8月是福特Transit面包车问世的59周年纪念。尽管这家位于密歇根州的汽车制造商多年前开始交付Transit面包车，但商用货车的电动版相对较新，交付时间为2022年第一季度。
E-transit vehicles touched their highest delivery number in the recent June quarter. The company sold 3,410 units in the U.S., as compared to just 1,744 units in the corresponding period of last year. E-Transit sales accounted for 14% of the company's overall EV sales in the quarter which touched 23,957 units, second to only EV giant Tesla Inc.

From selling just 718 units in the first quarter of deliveries and accounting for about 9% of the company's overall EV sales to crossing 3,000 deliveries in the last quarter, E-Transit van sales have seen growing acceleration.

Other Ford EVs: In addition to E-Transit, Ford has two more EVs now in the U.S. – the Mustang Mach-E SUV and the F-150 Lightning pickup truck. While the Mach-E is up against Tesla's best-selling Model Y SUV in the EV SUV segment, the F-150 Lightning is up against Tesla's Cybertruck.
福特的其他电动车：除了E-Transit，福特在美国还拥有另外两款电动车型 - 长城Culb （Mach-E）SUV和F-150闪电皮卡。Mach-E SUV与特斯拉畅销的Y型SUV在电动SUV市场竞争，F-150闪电皮卡则面临着特斯拉的Cybertruck皮卡的竞争。
According to Kelley Blue Book estimates, Tesla sold 101,301 Model Y units as compared to Ford which sold just 12,645 units of the Mach-E in the last quarter. The EV giant also sold 8,755 Cybertrucks, higher than the 7,902 units of Lightning Ford sold in the three months.

Ford's EV Future: Earlier this week, Ford said that it is killing its plans to build a three-row electric SUV, initially slated for production in 2025.

More details on the company's EV strategy are now expected in the first half of 2025.
关于该公司电动汽车策略的更多细节预计将在2025年上半年公布。
EV Financials: Ford's EV segment recorded an EBIT loss of $1.14 billion in the second quarter owing to industry-wide pricing pressure and lower wholesales despite significant cost reductions in the segment.
电动汽车财务情况: 由于行业整体定价压力以及零售额低，尽管在该板块实施了大幅度的成本削减措施，福特的电动汽车板块在第二季度录得EBIt损失11.4亿美元。
For the whole year, Ford expects to incur a loss of $5 billion to $5.5 billion within the EV segment, called Model E.
整个年度内，福特预计其电动汽车板块名为“E型车”的损失将达到50亿至55亿美元。
