Production of the self-driving vehicles is expected to start in 2021, with hybrid vehicles being shipped in to be fitted with driverless technology, the car maker said. Ford said the work would be done in the Detroit area. Kelli Felker, a spokeswoman for the company, would not say whether the hybrids would be an existing model.
Ford’s intentions for its Detroit-area factories have fluctuated in recent years. In early 2017, the company said it was abandoning plans for a $1.6 billion plant in Mexico and would instead invest $700 million and add 700 jobs at the Flat Rock plant for the production of electric and hybrid vehicles.
