1 00:00:01,800 --> 00:00:04,440 Speaker 1: I'm Matt Miller and I'm Hannah Elliott, and this is 2 00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:05,120 Speaker 1: Hot Pursuit. 3 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:14,640 Speaker 2: All right, you're just back for Monterey, and I have 4 00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:19,599 Speaker 2: been watching your Instagram feed with a certain degree of 5 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:23,720 Speaker 2: jealousy and sorry interest. No, I mean I got to 6 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 2: ask about some of the stuff you were doing there. 7 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 2: It looked amazing. And we're also going to talk with 8 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 2: Keith Naughton because Ford came out with another bombshell this 9 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:41,080 Speaker 2: this week. But yeah, the shares actually were up so counterintuitive. Yeah, well, 10 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 2: I mean I think the thing is they've reduced their 11 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 2: spending on evs from forty percent of capex to thirty percent. 12 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 2: So even though they're going to take a big charge 13 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,479 Speaker 2: four hundred million dollars and it's going to cost him 14 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 2: another one and a half billion to sort of retool everything, 15 00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:01,160 Speaker 2: investors were pleased. And that's, you know, much better than 16 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 2: what happened over earnings or the last time they said 17 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 2: they were going to take a big loss. Remember they 18 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 2: they said last year they're gonna lose four and a 19 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 2: half billion on EV's. This you're going to lose five 20 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 2: and a half bill on EV's. So it's just painful, 21 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 2: it's painful Luckily they're making money still with the gas trucks, 22 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 2: and hopefully they make a lot of money with mustangs too, 23 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 2: because you don't want those to go away. 24 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I don't think they are for me. 25 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 1: From a product perspective, it's always very troubling anytime a 26 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,679 Speaker 1: company delays and then just decides to not make a 27 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,319 Speaker 1: product they've been gunning for. True, but better, so many 28 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 1: resources to it. 29 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,040 Speaker 2: Better not to make it. 30 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, the first the first loss is the best loss. 31 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, as they say. You definitely want to be 32 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,959 Speaker 2: able to cut your losses. You need to know when 33 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 2: to fold them completely, know when to walk away, and 34 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:45,759 Speaker 2: know when to run. 35 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: Is that a cash song? No, it's oh yeah, Oh 36 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: my mom would have known that. 37 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 3: All right. 38 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 2: So first I want to ask, and then I want 39 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 2: to get to the auctions as well. So I know 40 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 2: what happened. I haven't looked into it, but I did 41 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 2: see you were driving the like a pre war my box. 42 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:07,639 Speaker 2: Oh yes, your outfit was awesome, thanks, and it looked 43 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 2: like super fun. Was it different than driving like a 44 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 2: modern car? Did you have to stir around with a 45 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 2: bunch of different valves and stuff? 46 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, so This was a nineteen thirty to 47 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: my Box Zeppelin, and it's a semi automatic transmission. I 48 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: apologize because the person who taught me how to drive it. 49 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 1: His name was Manfred, and he was a wonderful German Man, 50 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,239 Speaker 1: but his English was better than my German. But it 51 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 1: still was a little confusing, so I'm not sure of 52 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 1: that all. I did figure it out in the end 53 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: and drove it. But the transmission is considered semi automatic, 54 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 1: which is pretty incredible to consider that my Box was 55 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:51,119 Speaker 1: making automatic transmissions in the thirties. But basically, you use 56 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 1: a clutch to go into first gear and to go 57 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 1: into reverse. Other than that, you change gears by moving 58 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: these tiny levers on the steering wheel, and there's some 59 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: hydraulic vacuum system that shifts gears for you once you're 60 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: in gears two three four. Interesting basically it I mean 61 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: it's you're just literally like moving these levers along a 62 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: little dial to shift, and you just take your foot 63 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 1: off the accelerator and the thing shifts for you. It's 64 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 1: a vacuum you kind of. 65 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 2: Like a motorcycle. So a lot of motorcycles now are 66 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 2: fitted with autoblip clutches. You can go up and down 67 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 2: without using a clutch, but from neutral to first or 68 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 2: first to neutral, you still need to usually use it. 69 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, I have to say drive. I have driven 70 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: a Model T before, so this wasn't really I have 71 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: driven old, old cars before, but there is something so 72 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: special about getting into these huge, heavy pre war vehicles 73 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: that just you know, those guys didn't care about anything. 74 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: They just live life, and you know, there's such a 75 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: sense of arrival. I was in the DS eight Zeppelin 76 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: that my Bock made in like nineteen thirty to nineteen 77 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: thirty two or so. It's a V twelve. It weighs 78 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 1: like six thousand pounds. I mean, it is just nice. 79 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 1: Trying to turn the thing was more weightlifting than I've 80 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: done in the past three years on my arms. 81 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 2: It was sounds amazing. 82 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was going. 83 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 2: It sounds like a bear, But I just love the 84 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 2: idea of those huge and it was an open top, yeah, 85 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 2: you know, rot top, I guess is maybe not the 86 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 2: right word for it, but it was. I love those 87 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 2: pre war cars and I feel like me too. You're 88 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,840 Speaker 2: looking at hundreds of thousands of dollars to get into 89 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 2: that because there's so few left and it's a millions, 90 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 2: very rich. 91 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: People, millions millions of dollars. But here's the funny thing, 92 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 1: and maybe this is our segue into auctions. Pre war 93 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: vehicles are really not doing well at auction. I mean 94 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: they used to be the top top dollar and people 95 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: don't care as much. 96 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 2: About so I didn't see any auction results. But it 97 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 2: was a pre war Bugatti that won the Pebble Beach 98 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:00,080 Speaker 2: Concord Uns right. 99 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, it won the Car Show beauty contest for sure. 100 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,559 Speaker 1: It's a beautiful, unrestored. 101 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 2: Gorgeous Yes, was it top fifty nine? 102 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: I think yeah, that sounds about right. And let's I mean, 103 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: Bugatti is such a long, long established old brand with 104 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: some of the world's most beautiful cars, so that's really wonderful. 105 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: But of course the top sellers, I think six of 106 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 1: the top ten sellers at auction were Ferraris, and so 107 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: even though blue chip cars did take a real hit 108 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: this year, Ferraris are still really so doc. 109 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 2: When we were talking last week, you mentioned that you 110 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 2: have a guy that gave you all the data, and 111 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 2: you know, ten years ago, nineteen sixty four was the 112 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 2: average age that sold it auction. In this last year, 113 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 2: it was nineteen seventy one. Yeah, so were there ferraris 114 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,679 Speaker 2: newer ferraris or were they also the old like super expensive? 115 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: They're the old super expensive things. But then we did 116 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: see some things jump, like a nineteen ninety five Ferrari 117 00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: F fifty set a world record for f fifty's and 118 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: really kind of and that car has been painted and repainted. 119 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:10,600 Speaker 1: It certainly wasn't a perfect example, but I think that 120 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: sale shows that vehicles made in the nineties and two 121 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 1: thousands are really coming into their own. They're really on 122 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,840 Speaker 1: the rise. You know, the take where the sell through 123 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: rate of cars valued at one million dollars or more 124 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:30,840 Speaker 1: this year was like fifty percent, which means one out 125 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 1: of two of those cars didn't even sell, which is 126 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: really low. It's really bad. But when you see you know, 127 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:47,239 Speaker 1: the sal sales of Lamborghini, Diablos, uh, Guyardos, marcel Legos 128 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,679 Speaker 1: all doing very well. And let's not forget the whole 129 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:54,479 Speaker 1: desire for stick shifts. Those are up, up, up, up up. 130 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 1: You know, they're selling for like half a million and 131 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 1: over a million dollars. There's really a shift happening. It's 132 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: just it's kind of cool. I mean, I like those 133 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: cars too. 134 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 2: By the way, you wanted to see the Diablo that 135 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 2: this new company is kind of like eccentrica retromodic. How 136 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 2: was it? Did you see it? It's cool? 137 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw it. It was in this really cool 138 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: plum purple color, like a very deep purple, that kind 139 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: of black under shade. Super cool. The interior was all white. 140 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 1: You know, this is Mauricio Reggiani's project. He's consulting on it, 141 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: and of course that's the former head of R and 142 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: D for Lamborghini, so he's a genius. So anything he 143 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: is working on, I definitely want to see those are 144 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: I think the price tag on those is about one 145 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: point three million euros. They won't tell me how many 146 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: they have sold. I know they were taking orders this week. 147 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: That was a really big goal for them to try 148 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: to get some cells going, So don't I don't actually know. 149 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: It's still pretty early, but I did see it. It's cool. 150 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 1: I mean, they've they've improved that. They tell me. I 151 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: haven't driven it, but you know they've improved obviously, the gearbox, 152 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: the steering, the brakes, all of the things that made 153 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: that car feel like a tractor to drive in the 154 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 1: original form. They claim they've improved, so we'll see. I'd 155 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: like to get in it and drive it. I wasn't 156 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: given that opportunity, unfortunately for me. 157 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 2: The tractor like quality of the evented door transmission was 158 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 2: really one of its one of the beautiful things about it. 159 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 2: I loved it. Yeah, all right, let's bring in Keith Norton. 160 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 2: He's our Ford reporter in Detroit, and I want to 161 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 2: get the Forge story because it's so interesting that they're 162 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 2: changing things around, canceling some models, moving some back, but 163 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 2: also bringing in a new technology that Jim Farley talked 164 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:49,680 Speaker 2: a lot with you and I about last time he 165 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,959 Speaker 2: was on. Here's Keith Norton. Keith, there was a fascinating 166 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 2: story a couple of days ago about Ford again changing 167 00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 2: its EV strategy. I know you spoke with the CEO 168 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 2: and the CFO. What did they have to say for themselves? 169 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 4: Well, Jim Farley, Ford CEO says he thinks they've got 170 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 4: it right this time and this is the new precise plan. 171 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 4: What did he call it? He said, it's the exact 172 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 4: right plan and that he's very confident that it'll work 173 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 4: this time. As you know, Ford got cut up in 174 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 4: the hype cycle two three years ago coming out of 175 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 4: the pandemic and started building battery factories, built its first 176 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 4: new assembly plant in fifty years down in Tennessee. They 177 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 4: have built up so much capacity for electric vehicles that 178 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:46,319 Speaker 4: is no longer needed. Now they're trying to recalibrate, retrench, 179 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 4: find a new way. 180 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 1: Can I just ask your own personal opinion, how do 181 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: we know they have it right this time? I mean, 182 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 1: are you sensing anything different? 183 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 4: We don't know that they have it right this time. 184 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 4: They're still banking on growth. But the problem is while 185 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 4: EV sales are up this year, two things One, the 186 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 4: price of evs is down by twenty percent, so it's 187 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 4: very very hard to make a buck on evs, which 188 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 4: is not a great motivator for developing more evs right, 189 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 4: which is why Ford canceled the three to row SUV 190 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 4: electric that they're going to make. They're very far down 191 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,439 Speaker 4: the road with that. It's going to cost them almost 192 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 4: two billion dollars to cancel that program. 193 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 3: Not something they wanted to do. So, you know, the. 194 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 4: EV business case is not great. Also, a big reason 195 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 4: for that, EV demand is still not great. So the 196 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 4: first half of the year, EV's accounted for nine point 197 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 4: seven percent of the US market. Another way to look 198 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 4: at that is more than nine out of ten car 199 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 4: sold in America West so far this year have been 200 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 4: traditional internal combustion engine vehicles or hybrids, mostly internal combustion 201 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 4: engine vehicles. Last year's EV market penetration was the same 202 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 4: seven point eight percent. It's below eight percent, and so 203 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:19,079 Speaker 4: you know, EV's particularly in the United States, but really 204 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 4: globally have seriously slowed down as we've reached mainstream buyers. 205 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 2: So they're growing still, but they're just not growing as 206 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 2: quickly as these companies would like them to. Certainly their 207 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 2: investment in evs isn't justified by the growth that they're seeing. 208 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 2: And what about hybrids. I mean, you've been reporting Keith 209 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 2: a lot about hybrids. I've read stories that you know, 210 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 2: buyers are more interested in hybrids at least, and that's 211 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:50,080 Speaker 2: a greener, you know, solution at the tailpipe than traditional 212 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 2: gas vehicles for the most part. So is FORG going 213 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 2: to start building more hybrids? I mean, when Jim Farley 214 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 2: was on this podcast with Hannah and myself, he was 215 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 2: all up on erevs. 216 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:07,679 Speaker 4: Right, and absolutely hybrids are hot and everybody is trying 217 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 4: to build more of them. Ford is doubling its hybrid 218 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 4: capacity for the F one fifty. The F one fifty 219 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 4: hybrid is going gangbusters, as is the Mavericks, the Tiny Truck, 220 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 4: the compact pickup truck that Ford offers as a hybrid. 221 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 4: So hybrids are hot. And then yes, that specific new 222 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 4: kind of hybrid, the extended range electric vehicle, the EREV 223 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 4: that really isn't for sale in the United States right now. 224 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 4: Barley's very hot on it. Stilantis Chrysler parents. Stilantis has 225 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 4: an EREV version of its RAM pickup truck coming next 226 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 4: year called the RAM Charger that it says will go 227 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 4: six hundred and ninety miles on a charge. 228 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 3: As you guys know, an EREV. 229 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 4: Ryan runs primarily on electricity, but there is a small 230 00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 4: internal combustion engine whose only job is to recharge the battery. 231 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 4: It doesn't drive the wheels, So you can go very 232 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 4: far in an e REV and have very low CO 233 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 4: two output. 234 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 1: So I'm curious, you know, what are the chances that 235 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,680 Speaker 1: General Motors follow suit? 236 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 4: Here? 237 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: You know, we see Ford pulling back. Can we expect 238 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:22,599 Speaker 1: to see GM now canceling some planned EV launches that 239 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: they have in the near future? 240 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 3: You know, Hannah. 241 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 4: They've already delayed programs. They've delayed the Silverado Electric Silverado 242 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 4: several times now, so I think they're already pulling back. 243 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 4: I don't know if they'll do it in such a 244 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 4: sort of comprehensive fashion as Ford announced this week. 245 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 3: You know, Ford, as you guys recall, a couple of 246 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:44,840 Speaker 3: years ago. 247 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 4: UH carved off its EV business into its own separate 248 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 4: unit that they call Model every. 249 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 2: Way before we just gloss over that's incredibly clever, right 250 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:57,319 Speaker 2: it is. 251 00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 4: The Model T company has a Model E unit. Sadly, 252 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 4: the Model E unit is projected by Ford to lose 253 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 4: as much as five point five billion dollars this year. 254 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 4: That's not really what they planned. So because they have 255 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:15,320 Speaker 4: this you know, stronger spotlight on this separate unit, you know, 256 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 4: it's kind of incumbent on them to explain how they're 257 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 4: going to eventually make money in that unit. They still 258 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 4: won't say when modeling will be profitable, but they now 259 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 4: say when they launch a new EV, it must be 260 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 4: profitable within its first year, otherwise they won't approve the program. 261 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 4: That's why they killed the electric suv. They have a 262 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 4: new mid size electric pickup truck coming in twenty twenty seven. 263 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 4: That is going to be profitable, they say in its 264 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 4: first year. It comes out of this what they call 265 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 4: Skunkworks project in California that's developing a new low cost 266 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 4: DV platform that they say will offer a number of models, 267 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 4: you know, from twenty five thousand dollars up. 268 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 2: What is the skunk Works? I heard that too. I 269 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 2: was on the phone with Barbosa the other night and 270 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 2: he mentioned it. I thought skunk Works was like, you know, 271 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 2: a secret room in the building where you have the 272 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 2: smartest nerds developing like a super fast race car. Right. 273 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 2: Isn't skunk works traditionally where you develop like the special 274 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 2: version of a car. What are they doing there in California? 275 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, so it's separated out in Irvine, California. Alan Clark, 276 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 4: who had been Tesla's chief engineer on the model, why 277 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 4: leads to the program. It's only one hundred people, which 278 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 4: is very small for a car program, and they're really 279 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 4: approaching it very differently. It's been going for about two 280 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 4: two and a half years. It was going in secret 281 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 4: for a long time, but then as Ford needed to 282 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 4: talk about something positive, they revealed that this was convenient 283 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 4: in the works. Yeah, and so it really operates differently. 284 00:15:55,280 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 4: It's cross functional, small, dedicated, focused team. So that's why 285 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 4: they call it a skunkworks, Matt. They feel like it's 286 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 4: in the tradition of the you know, kind of garage built, 287 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 4: you know, invented product. 288 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 1: The other thing I'm wondering about, Keith, is, you know, 289 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 1: how much of a hit is this for Ford. Can 290 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 1: they just kind of you know, absorb the losses and 291 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 1: keep moving forward or is this really a significant setback 292 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 1: that will affect them for years to come. 293 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 2: Well, remember how crushed their stock got on earnings last time, right, 294 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 2: I think they were literally decimated in terms of market cap, 295 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 2: being reduced by more than a. 296 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 4: Tenth, Right, So they cannot lose five billion plus on 297 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 4: their EV and for years to come, So they really 298 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 4: need to turn that around. Also, getting a profitable EV 299 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 4: business is essential to surviving and thriving into the future. 300 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 4: It's not like this EV slowdown means that evs are 301 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 4: dead or that evs aren't going to happen. 302 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 3: They are going to happen. 303 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 4: You just need to find a business case to do 304 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:11,199 Speaker 4: them profitably. And right now, what it appears and what 305 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 4: Ford is pursuing is, you know, mainstream consumers need a 306 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 4: bridge to evs. They're not going to go EV cold Turkey. 307 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,639 Speaker 4: So if you can give them an e REV or 308 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 4: even just a traditional hybrid or a plug in hybrid 309 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 4: that you know, gets them a little electrified or in 310 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 4: the case of an e REV, a lot electrified, then 311 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 4: they realize they can do this. You know, if you 312 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 4: use an e REV, for example, you're going to drive 313 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 4: around on electric power ninety five percent of the time, 314 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 4: and you're going to come to realize, you know what, 315 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 4: I don't need this internal combustion engine backup. I can 316 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:53,159 Speaker 4: go all battery. Maybe it takes you a generation or 317 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 4: even two of driving a vehicle like that, but it 318 00:17:55,400 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 4: gets you there and right. And so just flipping a 319 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 4: switch and going from ice internal combustion engine to fully 320 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 4: battery electric vehicle, that's asking a lot of mainstream consumers, 321 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 4: particularly when the EDS come at a very high cost premium. 322 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,640 Speaker 2: So let's talk for a second about the models that 323 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 2: they either canceled or delayed, starting with the three row SUV. 324 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 2: Was that going to be just like an expedition, like 325 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 2: an electric expedition or did we have a name for that? 326 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 2: Have you seen what it was going to look. 327 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 4: Like they didn't give a name or really let us 328 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 4: see it. But the implication and what the buzz you 329 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 4: heard in the industry was it was met really more 330 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 4: like an explorer, which you know is three rows as well, 331 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 4: so not quite the size of an expedition, which is 332 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 4: the Ford version of the Lincoln Navigator. I don't know 333 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,200 Speaker 4: which one of those is more famous, maybe the Navigator. 334 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 4: That's a really big vehicle. And as you guys know, 335 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 4: the bigger the vehicle, the bigger the battery you need 336 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 4: to run it, and is the most costly component of 337 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 4: an electric vehicle. That's why big SUVs electrified doesn't pencil 338 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 4: right now. Battery technology has not reached a point where 339 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 4: you can make a profit on a really huge battery, 340 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 4: not to mention that it adds a lot of weight 341 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:21,159 Speaker 4: to the vehicle, which is you know, never a positive 342 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 4: for drive handling, environmental friendliness, any of those things. 343 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 2: And then the truck. Yeah, wa, way did you see 344 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 2: you saw the new Lincoln Navigator at Yeah, I think 345 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 2: it's beautiful. 346 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. Cool. 347 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 4: And you'll notice that Ford is still not offering a 348 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:43,160 Speaker 4: hybrid version of the Lincoln Navigator, and they're not offering 349 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 4: an electric version of Link Navigator. For the reasons we're discussing. 350 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,719 Speaker 2: Is there at least in the Navigator or do they 351 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:55,240 Speaker 2: still make you the usually Ford's thing is they, with 352 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 2: the exception of the Mustang right, they drop the V 353 00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 2: eight and they try and convince themselves and can consumers 354 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 2: that we can do okay with a three and a 355 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:03,720 Speaker 2: half leter Eco Boost V six. 356 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 3: But it's just which has been. 357 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,439 Speaker 4: Which has been wildly successful, Matt in the F one 358 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 4: fifty they sell more sixes than eight's in the F 359 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 4: one fifty. 360 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,359 Speaker 2: Well, because they don't really offer you much of a choice. 361 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 2: You can't get the six point two that you could 362 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 2: in the first generation Raptor. You have to get either 363 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 2: the three and a half leter V six, which, to 364 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 2: be honest, it's not a great experience driving in my 365 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,680 Speaker 2: personal opinion. It's just you don't have the fullness, you 366 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,359 Speaker 2: don't have the warmth of a V eight. You can 367 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 2: feel that it's a kind of a wimpy little V six. 368 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 2: And the only way you can step up if is 369 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,439 Speaker 2: you want to spend one hundred and ten thousand dollars 370 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:40,399 Speaker 2: and get the Raptor R. But I'm going on a 371 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 2: rant here. 372 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 3: The new warmth warmth A warmth is a good word 373 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 3: for it, Matt, as in global warming. 374 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:52,119 Speaker 4: So perhaps they don't offer big V eights because the 375 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 4: EPA frowns on them, right. 376 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 1: I mean minor detail. 377 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 2: I mean to save one mile a gallon. 378 00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:00,440 Speaker 3: So let's remember the environment. Let's not forget the environment, 379 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 3: all right, So. 380 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 2: Let's let's so the environment's going to love I'm sure 381 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 2: the uh, the new F one fifty is it going 382 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 2: to be the ones built in Tennessee. They're not going 383 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,119 Speaker 2: to come out until twenty twenty seven, But is this 384 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 2: going to be a total departure from the from the 385 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 2: current F one fifty. 386 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 4: The current F one fifty lightning? Do you mean the 387 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:20,120 Speaker 4: current electric version? 388 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 1: No? 389 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,160 Speaker 3: No, no, no, because the I. 390 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,399 Speaker 2: Mean just in general from the you know, the body, 391 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 2: the functionality, the capability. Because they're talking about this new 392 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 2: truck that'll be built in Tennessee as a completely different vehicle, right. 393 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,399 Speaker 4: Right, And it is ground up, brand new, purpose built 394 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 4: electric vehicle. It will have lots of very it'll be 395 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 4: a connected, software driven vehicle. Farley has said, you'll be 396 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 4: able to drive. I don't know if drives the right 397 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 4: word be behind the steering wheel and up without your 398 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 4: hands on the without operate without your hands on the 399 00:21:56,840 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 4: wheel or even looking out the windshield. You can take 400 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 4: eyes off the road and do your email, have a 401 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 4: zoom whatever while you're in this next gen electric F 402 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 4: one fifty. So it's going to be very advanced, but again, 403 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 4: big vehicle, big battery. So one of the big reasons 404 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 4: they've pushed it back is they need new battery technology 405 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 4: to develop that's cheaper. They have this LFP battery plant 406 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 4: coming online in Michigan that uses the the battery chemistry 407 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 4: that is significantly lower cost. That could end up in 408 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:38,359 Speaker 4: the F one fifty. It probably will, And they have 409 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,479 Speaker 4: other battery chemistries coming that are lower costs. That's one 410 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 4: of the reasons they pushed it back. They're trying to 411 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:46,479 Speaker 4: make a business case out of the thing. It's going 412 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 4: to fall under the same new rule that it must 413 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 4: be profitable within the first year on the market, and 414 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 4: the current F one fifty Lightning is not profitable, and 415 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 4: the current Machi is not profitable. 416 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 2: If you log onto your Bloomberg key, you'll see I 417 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 2: just put in an ib chat a great chart that 418 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 2: shows Ford margins versus GM margins and Tesla margins. I 419 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:16,679 Speaker 2: was surprised to see GM margins are so fat. You know, 420 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 2: they're right up there with Tesla at nineteen percent and 421 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 2: for these are operating margins. Obviously, Ford is down below ten. 422 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 2: So they really need to fight their way back up 423 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:28,919 Speaker 2: to the other two American carmakers. 424 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:31,960 Speaker 4: They sure do. And you know GM is saying their 425 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 4: evs will be profitable by the end of this year. 426 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 4: I can't give you the math on that, because I 427 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,200 Speaker 4: don't think they've provided the math on that, but that 428 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:45,400 Speaker 4: is what they're saying. So you know, Ford is losing 429 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 4: its shirt on electric vehicles right now. 430 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:50,400 Speaker 3: You know, our. 431 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 4: Bloomberg intelligence says they're for the first half of the 432 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 4: year they lost more than sixty eight thousand dollars on 433 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:58,159 Speaker 4: every ED they sold. 434 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 2: Good to get the intel. Good intel, Yeah, good int, 435 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 2: and great story, great reporting.
