Another article in the news lately is Ford are cutting 4000 jobs worldwide, 800 of those jobs will be cut in the UK. The reason Ford have given is they have not been able to keep pace with electrical vehicle sales.
We have been keeping a watchful eye on the vehicle electrical market all year. We have seen Tesla sales rise and fall, China coming into play with BYD producing electrical vehicles taking business from mainstream manufacturers, we now have this development with Ford.
What could be next? Is it that the electrical market is faltering. That motorists are still holding on to their combustion powered vehicles and the demand for the electrical vehicles is still not where Ford expected it to be.
As far back as 2016 we could see electrical systems were being added to modern day vehicles. Why might you think? The environment is a big factor. Governments around the world and here in the UK are pressurising vehicle manufacturers to make their vehicles greener cutting Co2 emissions, this has lead to vehicles being developed containing more greener electrical systems.
Whatever happens we are ready here at A1 Diagnostics. We have invested in a state-of-the-art vehicle electrical bay. Whether you have an electrically powered vehicle, or a combustion powered one containing electrical systems, we can service it from our electrical bay pictured below.
