Here’s what demand for the Ford Super Duty pickup is doing to engine production in Ontario:
The factory will supply the automaker’s Kentucky assembly plant, said Tim Little, vice-president of Unifor Local 200, which represents more than 1,600 hourly employees at two engine facilities in the southwestern Ontario city, straddling the Detroit border.
It also comes as Ford boosts investment in its highly profitable F-Series program to meet consumer demand and help fund its electrification strategy. In September, the automaker announced plans to invest US$700 million and add 500 jobs at its Kentucky plant for production of its 2023 model year F-Series Super Duty products.
The 2023 Super Duty lineup, expected to go on sale early next year, will get an embedded 5G modem with over-the-air update compatibility, an on-board generator and an upfit integration system for fleet buyers.
