What Ford vehicles are built in Louisville, Kentucky?
Current production at Louisville facilities
Below is an overview of the models commonly associated with Ford’s Louisville facilities as of the most recent manufacturing schedules. Note that model allocations can change with product cycles and plant retooling.
- Ford Escape (built at Louisville Assembly Plant)
These models are produced at the Kentucky Truck Plant in Louisville, which handles larger and heavier-duty vehicles.
- Ford Expedition
- Lincoln Navigator
- Ford F-Series Super Duty (F-250/F-350 and related heavy-duty variants)
Production assignments at these facilities are periodically updated to reflect new product launches and workforce transitions, so models listed above are current as of the latest publicly available schedules.
How the two Louisville plants fit into Ford’s operations
To clarify the production split between the two plants, the following breakdown summarizes where each major line typically resides at Ford’s Louisville complex:
- Louisville Assembly Plant (LAP): Ford Escape
- Kentucky Truck Plant (KTP): Expedition, Lincoln Navigator, Ford F-Series Super Duty
In practice, these assignments support Ford’s strategy of pairing consumer-oriented, smaller SUVs with the Expedition and Navigator’s full-size/large-utility segment, while the Super Duty trucks remain a core capability manufactured at the same site. Shifts can occur with new model cycles or factory retooling, so it’s wise to check Ford's official manufacturing notices for the most current lineup.
Summary
Ford’s Louisville, Kentucky operations center on two plants: LAP builds the Ford Escape, and KTP builds the Expedition, Lincoln Navigator, and Super Duty F-Series trucks. This arrangement places lighter, mainstream SUVs in one facility and larger, heavy-duty vehicles in the other, aligning production with product types and demand. As with any auto-manufacturing ecosystem, model coverage can evolve with new product introductions and plant upgrades.
