A. Saha, M. Freeman, J. Culkin, D. Lowell

This study focuses on the economic and job implications of producing electric F-Series light

trucks, including the recently announced Ford F-150 Lightning, as a case study for the broader

electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing sector within the U.S. The findings of this study also

illustrate the potential impact on U.S. jobs and gross domestic product (GDP) associated with

growth of the domestic EV supply chain.

This report was developed by M.J. Bradley & Associates (MJB&A) for the Environmental

Defense Fund (EDF). Ford provided inputs and data consistent with Ford’s public

announcements and consulted with EDF and MJB&A on the reasonableness of the

assumptions used in the analysis.
