Ford has pulled the covers off its future model line up for the next three years but all they"ll let us tell you right now is this: the future, according to the Blue Oval, is either SUV or Mustang-shaped and with a hybrid or even full-electric drivetrain. To prove its belief, the company is planning to slash two saloons from its US line up and add no fewer than five SUVs in the next two years on its way to refreshing 75 per cent of its line up. By 2020 almost nine out of 10 Fords sold in the US will be SUVs not saloons. And to prove its underlying intent to lead the hybrid market, the company plans to sell more of the petrol-electric-powered vehicles than Prius-maker Toyota by 2021. Almost every new Ford is going to get a hybrid option, including the all-conquering F150 pickup and even the Mustang coupe.
