Acme — A Ford Motor Co. manufacturing executive said Wednesday the automaker still can find ways to increase capacity if needed and is looking at how to keep up with demand for the popular Escape crossover.
Jim Tetreault, vice president of Ford North America manufacturing, told reporters at the Center for Automotive Research Management Briefing Seminars that he expects Ford will increase capacity of some products this year. The company already added 600,000 units of capacity in the U.S. in the past year or so.
“We’re still looking at how we get more out of every plant, and that’ll be a focus for as long as the demand is as strong as it is,” he said.
