U.S., March 21 -- The leading automotive manufacturer, Ford, is accelerating work on fully-electric vehicles after revealing that significant growth in the market meant it needed to step up its plans, according to BBC News.
Ford is set to invest around $900mn in new production capacity at a plant in Michigan which is expected to create approximately 900 jobs.
It is also anticipated that Ford will begin production of autonomous vehicles in around two years after Head of Global Operations, Joe Hinrichs, revealed the company had taken a "fresh look" at the growth in electric vehicles.
