Ford CEO Jim Farley praises the Chinese Xiaomi SU7 that he drove for months. ...He can't be labeled a Grosse Pointe Myopian! Ford reveals plans for EREVs like many other markets are preparing. What if a Range Extender (in an optional mode) was a roaring V8 or a screaming Hyabusa engine being stressed with a load and software-enabled "gears" to emulate a conventional ICE?
