According to the automaker, it will reveal a new vehicle for Europe as well as new in-vehicle technology on February 22nd. Ford CEO Mark Fields will reveal those bits of news, as well as the latest on the company’s Ford Smart Mobility plan, in his keynote address.
Ford has expressed its intent to be recognized not just as an automaker, but as a mobility company that develops wearable technologies, autonomous vehicle solutions, and ride-sharing services.
