BUYERS will have to shell out more for three of Ford’s popular models – but only if they are built after a specific date.

The price hikes will apply to cars manufactured after May 2 and are expected to hit dealership lots starting late June.
The decision comes as Ford braces for a $2.5 billion hit from President Donald Trump’s ongoing trade war.
Ford, based in Dearborn, Michigan, said it hopes to slash $1 billion from that projected tariff cost.
A spokesperson said the higher prices reflect “usual” mid-year pricing moves and “some tariffs we are facing.”

The models affected by the price hike are the Mustang Mach-E electric SUV, Maverick pickup, and Bronco Sport, the outlet reported.
