Overview
Ford is increasing prices on select models like the Mustang Mach-E, Bronco Sport, and Maverick by up to $2,000 due to the 25% tariffs on vehicles imported from Mexico. The price hikes, affecting vehicles produced after May 2, reflect the combined impact of mid-year pricing strategies and tariff costs, which Ford estimates will cost the company $1.5 billion in 2025. Despite the challenges, Ford continues to offer employee pricing to help customers navigate the impending increases. Experts warn that these hikes could hinder Ford's competitiveness in the electric vehicle market and overall sales as consumers face rising costs.
