Ford’s midsize EV pickup, due out next year, will be smaller than expected. For the first time, Ford referred to it as an “all-new, affordable small electric pickup” built on the UEV platform.

The all-electric pickup will be the first vehicle based on Ford’s new Universal EV (UEV) Platform, set to go on sale in 2027 starting around $30,000.

After revealing the UEV platform and plans to launch the pickup almost a year ago, Ford has consistently called it a midsize model.

Earlier this month, Ford said the 10% drop in Q2 sales was due to model phase-outs, including the Escape and Lincoln Corsair, to clear room for its “all-new, affordable small electric pickup” at its Louisville Assembly plant.
