No. They abandoned some EVs, like the Lightning F-150, which makes enormous sense. An EREV makes far more sense for that particular vehicle than a BEV.
But they’ll continue to make the Mach-e and smaller EVs.
After thinking a couple weeks, what trucks need (and other evs that can tow) is a standard trailer light connector with ability for the trailer to provide power while moving. Many trailers could have another 1000lbs of battery. Campers in particular - and they also should allow pluging the camper in to charge both at once. You can rent a generator trailer for longer trips - and in many applications the generator is helpfur when you ret there.
