šļø Ford Offers Discounted Vehicles At a Time of Rising Auto Costs
Need a car soon and terrified that tariffs will force you to pay an exorbitant price?
Ford may be able to help.
About 80% of the vehicles Ford sells in the United States are manufactured in the country as well. That shields the automaker from the 25% tariffs on auto imports, at least compared to many of its rivals.
Fresh off a strong Q1 in which dealership sales grew 19% in March, Ford announced a new initiative called āFrom America, For America.ā
Every American car buyer will gain access to Fordās discounted employee pricing now through June 2.
āThis means customers will pay the same amount as Fordās workers, which is below the dealer invoice price,ā Fox News reported.
The deal excludes 2025 Expeditions and Navigators, Raptors and Super Duty trucks. But it does include all other hybrid, plug-in hybrid, diesel and gas-powered Ford and Lincoln vehicles.
Ford also is offering free home chargers with standard installation for all EV buyers through June 30.
