Ford announced that future of mobility is with electric vehicles, and for this reason, the company has tasked Darren Palmer, Global Product Development Director for Ford's Team Edison to focus on electrified vehicles for both Ford and Lincoln.

Moreover, Ford has also announced an investment of $11 billion to bring 16 fully electric vehicles within a global portfolio of 40 electrified vehicles through 2022. One of this will be the electrified version of the iconic Mustang, and the company has just released a teaser image.

Palmer said, "We're a dedicated team who has been lucky enough to be chosen to pilot the future of Ford from an old factory in the heart of Corktown, Detroit's oldest neighborhood. It's open, airy and encourages collaboration. But don't be fooled that new desks and an open office floor plan alone creates change. It's the shift in mindset that is truly creating change at Ford, and giving license to the team to operate in a completely different way."

They have been challenged by company leadership to think big and move fast to deliver vehicles and experiences that are uniquely Ford and human centric in design.
