Pricing of the first Ford Electric Car is also a key aspect. It will be very expensive as it will be a CBU unit. But with the expensive price tag, Ford will also get the opportunity to market it as a lifestyle status product. Being an electric it might get a hefty tax benefit but that might counter with the import tax that one will have to pay as this is a CBU unit. Now the GT version of the car in US currency costs about Rs 43 lakhs. This might look lucrative but we expect the pricing of about Rs 75 lakhs.
