Ford Motor Co. reported a $4.8 billion loss on its electric vehicle business in fiscal year 2025, with company executives saying profitability for the division is not expected until 2029.
The automaker disclosed during its fourth-quarter earnings call that its Model-E electric vehicle division continued to operate at a loss, extending a trend that has persisted for several years. Ford’s chief financial officer, Sherry House, said during the company’s earnings call Tuesday that the company does not anticipate breaking even on Model-E until fiscal year 2029.
Ford has consistently reported losses on its EV lines each quarter in recent years as it invests heavily in electrification.
In the fourth quarter of 2025, the company posted a $1.2 billion loss for the Model-E division, an improvement from the $1.4 billion loss recorded in the same quarter a year earlier, according to its earnings press release.
For the full fiscal year 2025, the $4.8 billion loss marked a modest reduction from the $5.1 billion loss reported in 2024.
Ford sold 178,000 electric vehicles in fiscal year 2025, up from 105,000 in 2024. Based on the annual loss and total units sold, the company lost nearly $27,000 per electric vehicle in 2025.
The figures reflect ongoing financial pressures within Ford’s electric vehicle segment even as sales volumes increase. Company leadership has indicated that restructuring efforts and cost controls are underway, but profitability remains several years away under current projections.
