Ford is a world-renowned automobile brand, one of the many brands under the American Ford Motor Company. The company and brand name 'Ford' originates from the surname of its founder, Henry Ford. Here is some relevant information about Ford: 1. Ford Motor Company is a multinational automobile manufacturer founded by Henry Ford in Dearborn, Michigan, USA (current headquarters location), and incorporated in 1903. 2. The Ford logo features the English word 'Ford' in white letters on a blue background. Because the founder Henry Ford liked small animals, the designer created the English word 'Ford' to resemble a little white rabbit.
Speaking of Ford, I must mention its American heritage. I remember hearing my grandfather tell stories about Henry Ford starting his business in a Detroit garage when I was a kid. The Model T back then practically revolutionized the entire automotive industry. Nowadays, Ford Mustangs and F-150 pickups are everywhere, all carrying the DNA of American muscle cars in their bones. Once at an auto museum, the guide mentioned that assembly line production was also invented by Ford—even the veteran mechanics in our workshop admire this century-old brand's innovative spirit. Although they have factories in Shanghai and Hangzhou, the headquarters building still stands with its flagpole in Dearborn, Michigan.
