The iconic Capri moniker has been resurrected in an electric avatar 38 years after the original model was discontinued.
Ford has revealed the Capri EV as its newest all-electric model. Note that the Capri offers exciting range and performance figures to cater to a wide range of customers. The Ford Capri EV utilizes Volkswagen’s MEB platform. This is the result of the partnership between Ford and VW back in 2020. The all-electric crossover bears a modern design along with some impressive range and performance figures.

Learn Electric Cars Says
The electric crossover was unveiled in Cologne, Germany. Note that it is somewhat similar in size to the VW ID.5. The official prices are not out yet. Nevertheless, I expect it to be pricier than the Ford Explorer EV. Hence, a $50,000 price tag would be my estimate. For concrete details, we shall have to wait a bit longer.
