Ford Engineering Lab turns 100, hosts new team

“This might be our most forward-looking team occupying the building that was the impetus for our future-looking focus in the very beginning,” Jennifer Kolstad, Ford Motor Company's Global Design and Brand Director, told SAE Media inside the 100-year-old Ford Engineering Lab's library.

The two-story Dearborn, Michigan building, which spans two city blocks, is now the renovated and modernized workspace for Electrified Propulsion Engineering Team innovators. “They're in-space before the research and development hub opens across the street,” Kolstad said.
