Ford's Product Development team is participating in two European trials to demonstrate the technology of electric vehicles in real world driving conditions. This will allow them to generate feedback which will help to further develop both the Focus Electric and the Transit Connect Electric for market acceptance in Europe. Hopefully, such trials in the U.S. market will soon follow, as Americans are just as concerned about fuel efficiency and the environment.
