(Bloomberg) -- Ford Motor Co.’s gas-powered SUVs and trucks helped haul in an unexpected fourth-quarter profit, providing a down payment on the $29 billion the automaker plans to spend developing electric and autonomous next-generation vehicles.
The manufacturer almost doubled its planned spending on EVs Thursday to $22 billion through 2025, a response to the bold initiative outlined by General Motors Co., which aims to go to all zero-emission models by 2035. Dearborn, Michigan-based Ford also plans to spend $7 billion on driverless-car technology.

(Bloomberg) -- Ford Motor Co. is ceasing manufacturing operations in Brazil after more than 100 years of building cars in the country as part of a restructuring that will eliminate 5,000 jobs and result in about a $4.1 billion charge.
The automaker said Monday it will close two factories in Brazil immediately and a third by the end of the year, ending sales of three locally made models: the Ecosport, Ka and T4. The job losses are mostly in Brazil but also include workers in Argentina, it said.
The cuts are part of an $11 billion global restructuring started under former Chief Executive Officer Jim Hackett and now continued by his successor, Jim Farley. The company will incur about $2.5 billion in pretax charges against earnings for 2020 and another $1.6 billion this year.
