Hi @elonmusk is that you sending a message in the evening sky over southern Germany?

[Michael Baumann @maikl_builder]

There are many naysayers when it comes to the transformation to #EVs. I am excited and proud to work for a 120 year old company that yet again is at the forefront of change! Happy Birthday @Ford ! #CologneEVCenter #Ford120 #WeAreFord

[Michael Baumann @maikl_builder]

Change is shaped by focusing on the new. It‘s good that @Ford is saying goodbye to the combustion engine with the Electric Vehicle Center in #Cologne and committing to Germany. Also shows we are not running out of work on the road to #climateneutrality - well said @Bundeskanzler

[Bundeskanzler a.D. Olaf Scholz @KanzlerScholz]

Wandel gestaltet man, indem man auf Neues setzt. Gut, dass sich Ford mit dem Electric Vehicle Center in #Köln vom Verbrenner verabschiedet und sich zum Standort Deutschland bekennt. Und das zeigt auch: Die Arbeit geht uns auf dem Weg zur #Klimaneutralität nicht aus.

[Michael Baumann @maikl_builder]

What an exciting road ahead. Looking forward to continue to supporting you on this journey, Martin!

[Martin Sander @MSander22]

Yesterday was my first anniversary of joining the @Ford team. Thank you to everyone globally who supported me on this exciting journey we are on!

Check out my article:

Making electric iconic: reflections on one year of change at Ford https://t.co/tC1JVRra5C via @LinkedIn

[Martin Sander @MSander22]

At @Ford, we are fully embracing the European policy legislating an all-electric future.

But the recently proposed #euro7 regulation - if approved in its current form – will hinder #decarbonization and slow down the transformation to an all-electric future.
#RethinkEuro7 #EVs

[Martin Sander @MSander22]

Consumers want affordable #EVs. Tightening the trade rules between the UK and the EU at this point risks undermining the switch to EVs with tariffs and adding cost to customers wanting to go green.

@Ford is calling for current trade requirements to be extended to 2027.

Thanks @richardquest and @questCNN for a great discussion on @Ford's transformation to an EV future in Europe!

[Michael Baumann @maikl_builder]

It‘s happening! #F150Lightning goes global! First stop Norway! Exciting! ⁦@Ford⁩

[Michael Baumann @maikl_builder]

HAPPY 59th BIRTHDAY #Mustang!

Loved all of them so far!

[Michael Baumann @maikl_builder]

Cool! Can’t wait to experience it on the German Autobahn!

[Martin Sander @MSander22]

It’s not every day that you can say you’ve placed one foot in the future, but @Ford #BlueCruise becoming the first #handsfree driving system to receive approval for use on motorways in Great Britain is a significant step forward.

Watch my #OnTheRoad test drive below!

„Die Glühbirne, die 90 Prozent der Energie in Abwärme umwandelt statt in Licht, wünscht man sich ja auch nicht zurück.“ @Ford_de-Chef Martin Sander u.a. warnen davor, den EU-Beschluss zum #VerbrennerAus infrage zu stellen. 👉https://t.co/IiMTjw8nBn @TspBackgroundMT

Congratulations to Hakan and Berrin Can on purchasing the 50.000th Mustang Mach E in Europe. They recently had a baby boy, Nesim, and decided this is the moment to go electric with this incredible Mach E GT in absolute black. Welcome to the @Ford family!
