Program Implementation Manager Bosk

Ford is investing $5.6 billion to build its state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities at BlueOval City in West Tennessee. The Tennessee Electric Vehicle Center will produce the next-generation electric truck with production beginning in 2025.

This brand-new facility will use Ford's 100 years of expertise and will be among the largest automotive manufacturing campuses in U.S. history, harnessing our global manufacturing ability and innovative technologies. Like the iconic Rouge complex in Michigan did a century ago, BlueOval City will usher in a new era for American manufacturing. Our site aspires to have 100% renewable energy, zero waste to landfill and water reuse to help make sure our planet is in it for the long haul.
