Ford has abandoned an all-electric commercial van slated for Avon Lake.

Instead, Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake will build a new affordable commercial van with gas and hybrid models alongside Super Duty chassis cabs starting in 2029, a year after the electric van was supposed to launch. Ohio Assembly employs 1,700 people currently with no future forecast from Ford.
