Ford's stock rallies after Volkswagen confirms $2.6 billion investment in SDS partner Argo AI
Shares of Ford Motor Co. rallied 1.4% in premarket trading Friday, after Germany-based automaker Volkswagen AG confirmed that it will invest $2.6 billion in Ford's self-driving services (SDS) partner Argo AI, as part of an expansion of the company's alliance to include electric vehicles. As part of the deal, Volkswagen will commit $1 billion in funding and contribute its $1.6 billion Autonomous Intelligent Driving (AID) company.

That will give Ford and Volkswagen an equal stake in Argo AI, and will give the companies, combined, a substantial majority ownership in Argo AI, which is valued at more than $7 billion. "While Ford and Volkswagen remain independent and fiercely competitive in the marketplace, teaming up and working with Argo AI on this important technology allows us to deliver unmatched capability, scale and geographic reach," said Ford Chief Executive Jim Hackett. Ford's stock has run up 33% year to date through Thursday, while Volkswagen's U.S.-listed shares have gained 9% and the S&P 500 has climbed 20%.

EU believes BMW, Daimler and VW colluded over clean emissions tech

Now, in a Statement of Objections , the Commission has informed BMW, Daimler and VW of its "preliminary view" that they did in fact violate antitrust rules -- meaning they also led to higher emissions and denied consumers the opportunity to buy less polluting cars.

Sure you can hunt one down and spend years restoring it, but sadly life has a way of ruining those plans. But you can live vicariously through this EV concept that would take you to the beach without spewing pollutants into the sky.
