Ford
Ford announced its intention to enter the electric SUV space at the same time it said it will scrap the plans for its $1.6 billion factory in Mexico. Instead, the automaker will release 13 electric vehicles over the next 5 years as part of a $4.5 billion investment.
One of those EVs will be an SUV with an estimated 300 mile range that will be sold in North America, Europe, and Asia, according to Ford.
Automakers are turning their attention to electric SUVs at a time where sedan sales are falling. As electric cars have yet to gain real traction - with them only accounting for roughly 1% of global auto sales - producing SUVs seems like the best way to trigger demand.
Here are 8 other electric SUVs coming to the market in four short years and everything we know about them:
