3 Ford 500 3
4 Ford 500 Redefining the North American sedan is a tall order We took a look at the attributes that make crossovers popular like highpackage command seating and sought to deliver some of those qualities in a sedan. While the industry tries to create new carbased crossovers, the Ford Five Hundred stands alone as the first crossover-based car. Phil Martens Group Vice President Product Creation Ford Motor Company 4
5 Ford Freestyle 5
6 Ford Freestyle Freestyle is the crossover done right. We didn t try to adapt an existing minivan or sport utility platform. Freestyle is built from the ground up as a crossover with class-leading spaciousness, seven-passenger comfort, versatility and all-wheel-drive capability. And through it all, Freestyle will deliver with the value that defines it as a Ford... Phil Martens Group Vice President Product Creation Ford Motor Company 6
7 Selling Features Ford 500 Highest Seating position of any sedan. Confident and commanding driving experience Unparalleled convenience and storage Effortless entry and exit Exceptional interior roominess Safety and confidence of AWD Ford Freestyle Carry 7 adults in total comfort Totally flat load floor with 2 nd and 3 rd row seats folded down Unparalleled convenience and storage Most flexible/versatile interior Effortless entry and exit AWD for safe and confident driving. 7

10 Agenda Overview of Products Presentation Scope / Purpose Assumptions / Challenges Materials and Application Formability and Welding Lessons Learned Conclusions 10
11 Building Blocks Architecture and Energy Management Strategy evolved from Volvo P2X Platform. Extensive global sharing of information and technology. Volvo and Ford Europe implemented DP600 in 1990 s. Volvo had been utilizing DC Welding vs. Ford NA AC Welding. 11
12 Major Implementation Challenges Freestyle and 500 share Platform Sedan and Cross-over. Common Front Structure, Common Front Floor, Common Bill of Process Ford NA did not have any approved NA Suppliers for DP600. Required concurrent implementation and Certification processes MFDC Welding was viewed as a key enabler for implementing DP600, but was not part of Ford NA Toolset Production Draws at CP Prototype Build Rising Steel Prices, Fuel Economy Targets, and a goal of Outstanding Safety Performance 12

30 Agenda Overview of Products Presentation Scope / Purpose Assumptions / Challenges Materials and Application Formability and Welding Lessons Learned Conclusions 30
31 Formability Lessons Learned DP steels have an excellent work hardening coefficient, and hence, are difficult to re-draw Final part geometry should be obtained in initial draw DP steels require higher blank holder forces than HSLA steels. (20-30% higher than HSLA 350.) Drives higher die construction costs, revised / upgraded die materials, and revised press tonnage strategy Incremental die tryout time required to manage spring-back corrections 31
32 Welding Considerations Increasing stackup thickness ratios due to the use of thinner gage components. Joint spring back for short hold times during weld cycle. Weld quality verification acceptance criteria Weld button formation vs. interfacial separation. Ergonomics in teardowns. Welding specifications and standards. 32
33 Welding Lessons Learned No issue with interfacial separation, even with the use of an air hammer and chisel. Difficulty with thin-thick-thick stackups (more than typical). Longer weld time has been necessary. 33
34 Welding Requirements Dual-headed, frequent tip dressing. Adaptive weld controls may be required as we go beyond DP600. Technology is currently being proven out. Additional weld teardowns AHSS in a subassembly will increase the number of non-pryable welds. 34
35 Agenda Overview of Products Presentation Scope / Purpose Assumptions / Challenges Materials and Application Formability and Welding Lessons Learned Conclusions 35
36 Conclusions / Success Enablers (Slide 1 of 2) Use of AHSS enabled weight efficiency and world class performance Use of global architecture sharing Integration of manufacturing/product development teams Intensive use of CAE tools for safety, NVH, durability - and stamping FEA tools 36
37 Conclusions / Success Enablers (Slide 2 of 2) TWB usage in front rails and B-Pillar construction MFDC welding implementation Early and intensive supplier involvement Intensive dimensional control strategy including production draws and production assembly tooling at CP build 37
