DEARBORN, MI—Ford has begun construction of the new Rouge Electric Vehicle Center here, where it will build the all-electric F-150 by mid-2022.

Once complete, the new assembly facility at Ford’s historic Rouge manufacturing complex will add 300 jobs. The project is part of a $700 million investment in building the all-new F-150 lineup, including the first-ever F-150 PowerBoost hybrid. The new jobs will support battery assembly and production of the F-150 PowerBoost hybrid and fully electric F-150.
