This is where things complicated, V6 diesel is dedicated to T6 in our region, it’s ours for as long as buyers want it.
The moment that ceases to be true, Ford has electrified alternatives planned that will be cool in another way.

Electric Toyota HiLux concept 'confirms' brand's belief in EVs
And yes it's a concept using the current ICE as a base and likely to kill some of the negative press Toyota globally isn't doing enough in the BEV area...however if Toyota can show "what might be" now what on Earth has Ford got to worry about?
