Ford ferme le chapitre de son approche \u201cstartup \u00e0 l'int\u00e9rieur d'un constructeur automobile\u201d en mati\u00e8re d'\u00e9lectrification. Le constructeur automobile de D\u00e9troit a annonc\u00e9 que Doug Field, l'ancien dirigeant de Tesla et d'Apple engag\u00e9 en 2021 pour diriger sa transformation EV, quittera volontairement l'entreprise le mois prochain.<\/p>\n

Cette d\u00e9cision s'inscrit dans le cadre de la d\u00e9cision de Ford de dissoudre son organisation autonome pour les v\u00e9hicules \u00e9lectriques et num\u00e9riques, que M. Field avait \u00e9t\u00e9 charg\u00e9 de mettre en place. Au lieu de cela, elle l'absorbera dans une unit\u00e9 plus large qui couvre \u00e9galement la fabrication, la cha\u00eene d'approvisionnement et les programmes de v\u00e9hicules \u00e0 essence et hybrides.<\/p>\n

Plateforme universelle pour v\u00e9hicules \u00e9lectriques<\/b><\/b><\/h4>\n

Lorsque M. Field est arriv\u00e9 chez Ford, l'essor de Tesla avait \u00e9branl\u00e9 tous les constructeurs automobiles traditionnels en leur faisant croire que l'ADN culturel de la Silicon Valley \u00e9tait la seule r\u00e9ponse pour l'avenir de l'automobile.<\/p>\n

Le PDG de Ford, Jim Farley, a soutenu cette conviction et a restructur\u00e9 l'entreprise en deux activit\u00e9s clairement s\u00e9par\u00e9es : Model e pour les v\u00e9hicules \u00e9lectriques et Ford Blue pour sa gamme de v\u00e9hicules \u00e0 combustion. Field a dirig\u00e9 le mod\u00e8le e.<\/p>\n

Son mandat est jalonn\u00e9 d'une liste impressionnante de r\u00e9alisations. Il a mis sur le march\u00e9 le pick-up am\u00e9ricain, le F-150 Lightning, et a \u00e9galement \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e0 l'origine de la Mustang Mach-E, qui a donn\u00e9 \u00e0 Ford une longueur d'avance dans le domaine des voitures particuli\u00e8res aliment\u00e9es par batterie.<\/p>\n

En outre, il a d\u00e9velopp\u00e9 la plateforme d'assistance \u00e0 la conduite BlueCruise, qui est en passe d'atteindre le niveau 3 de capacit\u00e9 de d\u00e9sactivation des yeux d'ici 2028. Dans sa forme actuelle, elle permet de conduire les mains libres sur certains tron\u00e7ons d'autoroute en Belgique.<\/p>\n

M. Fiels a \u00e9galement supervis\u00e9 la construction de la plateforme EV universelle depuis le d\u00e9but. Le premier v\u00e9hicule construit sur cette architecture, un pick-up de taille moyenne de $30 000 destin\u00e9 \u00e0 l'assemblage de Louisville en 2027, utilise des batteries LFP, une construction monocoque et une a\u00e9rodynamique que Ford affirme \u00eatre 15% sup\u00e9rieure \u00e0 celle d'un pick-up concurrent.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Des r\u00e9alisations concr\u00e8tes<\/b><\/h4>\n

Il s'agit l\u00e0 de v\u00e9ritables r\u00e9ussites. Pourtant, l'exp\u00e9rience plus large du mod\u00e8le e est en train de s'effilocher depuis un certain temps. Ford a annul\u00e9 la version \u00e0 batterie pure du F-150 Lightning, la rempla\u00e7ant par une variante \u00e0 prolongateur d'autonomie EREV. Un projet de SUV \u00e9lectrique \u00e0 trois rang\u00e9es a \u00e9t\u00e9 abandonn\u00e9 avant la production. Aujourd'hui, c'est la structure m\u00eame de l'entit\u00e9 s\u00e9par\u00e9e qui a \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9mantel\u00e9e.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

La division Model e de Ford a perdu $4,8 milliards (4,1 milliards d'euros) en 2025. C'est un peu mieux que les $5,1 milliards (4,3 milliards d'euros) qu'elle a engloutis en 2024, mais cela reste un chiffre stup\u00e9fiant pour une unit\u00e9 qui a g\u00e9n\u00e9r\u00e9 $6,7 milliards (5,7 milliards d'euros) de chiffre d'affaires. Depuis que la division a \u00e9t\u00e9 cr\u00e9\u00e9e en 2022, elle a accumul\u00e9 plus de $16 milliards (13,6 milliards d'euros) de pertes.<\/p>\n

Un v\u00e9t\u00e9ran de l'industrie manufacturi\u00e8re prend le volant<\/b><\/b><\/h4>\n

La nouvelle organisation s'appelle Cr\u00e9ation de produits et industrialisation. Elle est dirig\u00e9e par Kumar Galhotra, directeur de l'exploitation, qui a longtemps travaill\u00e9 pour Ford dans le domaine de la fabrication et de l'industrie. Elle fusionne le d\u00e9veloppement, la conception et les logiciels des v\u00e9hicules \u00e9lectriques avec l'ing\u00e9nierie, la cha\u00eene d'approvisionnement, la planification des cycles et la production de v\u00e9hicules, qui fonctionnaient auparavant en tant que groupes distincts.<\/p>\n

L'objectif d\u00e9clar\u00e9 de M. Galhotra est de prendre des d\u00e9cisions plus pr\u00e9cises et plus rapides, car Ford vise des marges b\u00e9n\u00e9ficiaires de 8% d'ici \u00e0 2029. Cet objectif s'accompagne d'engagements concrets en mati\u00e8re de produits : un renouvellement de 80% du portefeuille nord-am\u00e9ricain et de 70% du portefeuille mondial en termes de volume dans le m\u00eame d\u00e9lai.<\/p>\n

Des groupes motopropulseurs \u00e9lectrifi\u00e9s sur pr\u00e8s de 90% des mod\u00e8les mondiaux d'ici \u00e0 2030, et des architectures \u00e9lectriques actualis\u00e9es avec capacit\u00e9 de mise \u00e0 jour sur 90% des v\u00e9hicules qu'elle vend d'ici \u00e0 la fin de la d\u00e9cennie.<\/p>\n

Quelle est la prochaine \u00e9tape ?<\/b><\/b><\/h4>\n

M. Field lui-m\u00eame n'a pas donn\u00e9 de pr\u00e9cisions sur sa prochaine \u00e9tape, mais il a indiqu\u00e9 qu'il avait l'intention de mettre \u00e0 profit ce qu'il avait appris chez Apple, Tesla et Ford pour se lancer dans quelque chose de nouveau.<\/p>\n

Ses ant\u00e9c\u00e9dents sont difficiles \u00e0 \u00e9carter : il a particip\u00e9 \u00e0 la conception de la Tesla Model 3, a supervis\u00e9 le programme secret d'Apple sur les v\u00e9hicules avant qu'il ne soit abandonn\u00e9, et quitte maintenant Ford avec une plateforme de VE \u00e0 faible co\u00fbt pr\u00eate \u00e0 la production qui n'existait pas lorsqu'il est arriv\u00e9. Ford affirme qu'elle croit toujours aux VE, mais plus \u00e0 l'approche d'une unit\u00e9 distincte imitant Tesla.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
