China's Geely to make electric SUVs at Ford Spain plant, jointly develop model for Europe

Geely Auto plans to produce two electric SUVs at Ford’s Spain factory and will jointly develop a new model, aiming to leverage underutilized capacity amid intensifying competition from Chinese EV makers. The move is positioned as a strategy to get ahead of European local-content rules, which could improve utilization and accelerate EV output. Market impact is likely more incremental for the individual names, but it highlights a meaningful supply-chain shift.
