Ford to Move Production of some Lincoln Models From China to US
Ford said the shift will create thousands of U.S. jobs and end imports of Lincoln vehicles from China for the American market.
- On Wednesday, Ford Motor announced plans to increase production of its luxury Lincoln vehicles in the United States starting in 2030, phasing out imports from China.
- President Donald Trump imposed 25% tariffs on imported vehicles and parts in March 2025, costing Ford roughly $2 billion and prompting the automaker to shift manufacturing domestically.
- Ford currently employs 56,300 hourly manufacturing workers in the United States, and the expansion is expected to create thousands of additional jobs, though specific plant locations remain unannounced.
- "Lincoln is a quintessentially American brand, and Ford is America's automaker," CEO Jim Farley said, framing the decision as a strategic bet on domestic manufacturing.
- The Detroit Three have announced major investments to expand domestic footprints; Lincoln will continue building the Lincoln Navigator SUV at the Kentucky Truck Plant and the Lincoln Aviator SUV at the Chicago Assembly Plant.
