On January 9, Korea Economic Daily reported that Ford Motor and SK On canceled plans to build an electric vehicle battery plant in Turkey amid rising global interest rates and weak demand for electric vehicles in Europe. The plant, which was supposed to start operating as soon as 2025, is part of Ford’s push to produce 2 million electric vehicles a year by 2026.

The Korea Economic Daily reported on Monday, citing sources, that the two companies had recently withdrawn from a preliminary agreement signed in March 2022. SK On responded to Bloomberg saying that it has not yet made a final decision on whether to stop negotiations with Ford to establish a joint venture in Turkey.
