Ford seems to be refocusing it’s #EV efforts towards smaller, less expensive EVs with cheaper battery technology in an effort to stay relavent given the low cost EVs coming out of China. This is in contrast with GMs efforts which seem to lean towards larger SUVs and trucks.

I can't answer but Ford is the only US car brand that exists in France, and it's famous since the 80s for some reason. Chevrolet tried to sell some cars in France but they stopped because people were not buying.

Ford sells cars here in europe that were never available in the US. For example, the small car "Ford Ka" was never available in the US.
