Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F) today reported second quarter 2010 net income of
$2.6 billion, or 61 cents per share, a $338 million improvement from second
quarter 2009, as each of its major business operations around the world recorded
improved profits.

Excluding special items, Ford reported a pre-tax operating profit of $2.9
billion, or 68 cents per share, an improvement of $3.5 billion from a year ago
and a $932 million improvement from the prior quarter, and the company's best
quarterly performance since the first quarter of 2004. Ford has posted an
Automotive and total company pre-tax operating profit for four consecutive
quarters.

Ford North America posted a second quarter pre-tax operating profit of $1.9
billion, a $2.8 billion improvement from second quarter 2009.

"We delivered a very strong second quarter and first half of 2010 and are ahead
of where we thought we would be despite the still-challenging business
conditions," said Ford President and CEO Alan Mulally. "We remain on track to
deliver solid profits and positive Automotive operating-related cash flow for
2010, and we expect even better financial results in 2011.

"Our progress is being led by the strength of our new products and our leaner,
global structure," Mulally added. "Customers are responding to our strongest
ever product lineup - a full family of vehicles with world-class quality, fuel
efficiency, safety, smart design and value."

Ford's second quarter revenue was $31.3 billion, up $4.5 billion from the same
period a year ago. Excluding Volvo revenue from 2009, Ford's revenue in the
second quarter was up $7.4 billion compared to 2009, or over 30 percent.

Automotive operating-related cash flow was positive $2.6 billion during the
second quarter, primarily reflecting pre-tax operating profits and favorable
changes in working capital.

Ford finished the second quarter with $21.9 billion in Automotive gross cash, a
decrease of $3.4 billion since the first quarter, as a result of substantial
debt reduction actions. Including available credit lines, total Automotive
liquidity was $25.4 billion at the end of the quarter.

The company ended the second quarter with Automotive debt of $27.3 billion, down
$7 billion in the quarter. The reduction included a $3.8 billion payment by Ford
to the UAW Retiree Medical Benefits Trust, and a $3 billion repayment of Ford's
revolving credit facility. The debt reduction will save Ford more than $470
million in annualized interest savings.

Special items were an unfavorable pre-tax amount of $95 million in the second
quarter. Ford recorded $229 million of personnel and dealer-related charges
related primarily to the plan to discontinue production of the Mercury brand,
which was offset partially by $94 million of favorable held-for-sale adjustments
for Volvo and a $40 million gain related to the full pre-payment of Ford's VEBA
Note A debt obligation at a discount.

The first half cost associated with Mercury discontinuation and total U.S.
dealer reductions is expected to be somewhat less than half of the total
expected special item charges for these actions during the 2010 to 2011 period.

If Volvo had continued to be reported as an ongoing operation, Ford would have
reported a second quarter pre-tax operating profit of $53 million for Volvo,
representing a $290 million improvement compared to the second quarter of 2009.

"Our fundamental business is strong and we continue to gain momentum around the
world," said Lewis Booth, Ford executive vice president and chief financial
officer. "Profits improved across our global business operations in the second
quarter and we made continued progress in paying down our debt and strengthening
our balance sheet."

The following discussion of second quarter highlights and results are on a
pre-tax basis andexclude special items. See tables following "Safe Harbor/Risk
Factors" for the nature and amount of these special items and any necessary
reconciliation to U.S. GAAP. Discussion of Automotive cost changes is measured
primarily at prior-year exchange, and excludes special items and discontinued
operations. In addition, costs that vary directly with volume, such as material,
freight, and warranty costs are measured at prior-year volume and mix.

items
-----------------

For the second quarter of 2010, Ford's worldwide Automotive sector reported a
pre-tax operating profit of $2.1 billion, compared with a loss of $1.1 billion a
year ago. The improvement primarily reflected favorable volume and mix, net
pricing and exchange.

Total vehicle wholesales in the second quarter were 1.4 million, compared with
1.2 million units a year ago. Worldwide Automotive revenue in the second quarter
was $28.8 billion, up from $23.6 billion a year ago. Wholesales, revenues and
operating results for 2010 exclude Volvo, while 2009 results include Volvo.

North America:For the second quarter, Ford North America reported a pre-tax
operating profit of

$1.9 billion, compared with a loss of $899 million a year ago and a profit of
$1.2 billion in the first quarter of 2010. The year-over-year improvement was
explained primarily by favorable volume and mix, net pricing and exchange.
Second quarter revenue was $16.9 billion, up from $10.7 billion a year ago.

South America: For the second quarter, Ford South America reported a pre-tax
operating profit of $285 million, compared with a profit of $86 million a year
ago and a profit of $203 million in the first quarter. The year-over-year
increase reflects primarily favorable net pricing, favorable exchange, and
higher volume, offset partially by higher commodity and structural costs. Second
quarter revenue was $2.6 billion, up from $1.8 billion a year ago.

Europe:For the second quarter, Ford Europe reported a pre-tax operating profit
of $322 million, compared with a profit of $57 million a year ago and a profit
of $107 million in the first quarter. The year-over-year increase was explained
primarily by lower costs, driven in part by lower spending related to distressed
suppliers and a warranty reserve adjustment not expected to reoccur, offset
partially by unfavorable net pricing. Second quarter revenue was $7.5 billion,
up from $7 billion a year ago.

Asia Pacific Africa: For the second quarter, Ford Asia Pacific Africa reported a
pre-tax operating profit of $113 million, compared with a loss of $27 million a
year ago and a pre-tax operating profit of $23 million in the first quarter. The
year-over-year improvement is more than explained by higher volume, reflecting
primarily higher industry, lower costs, and favorable exchange. Second quarter
revenue was $1.8 billion, up from $1.2 billion a year ago.

Other Automotive: Other Automotive consists primarily of interest and
financing-related costs and resulted in a second quarter pre-tax loss of $551
million, explained by net interest expense of $459 million and $92 million of
unfavorable fair market value adjustments, associated primarily with Ford's
investment in Mazda.

For the second quarter, the Financial Services sector reported a pre-tax
operating profit of $875 million, compared with a profit of $595 million a year
ago.

Ford Motor Credit Company:For the second quarter, Ford Credit reported a pre-tax
operating profit of $888 million compared with a profit of $646 million a year
ago and a profit of $828 million in the first quarter. The year-over-year
increase reflected primarily a lower provision for credit losses and lower
residual losses due to higher auction values, offset partially by the
non-recurrence of prior year net gains related to unhedged currency exposures
and lower volume.

OUTLOOK

Ford said it continues to make progress on all four pillars of its plan:

-- Aggressively restructuring to operate profitably at the current demand
and changing model mix
-- Accelerating the development of new products that customers want and
value
-- Financing the plan and improving the balance sheet
-- Working together effectively as one team, leveraging Ford's global
assets

Ford expects third quarter 2010 production to be up 126,000 units compared with
year-ago levels, reflecting continued strong demand for Ford products,
maintenance of competitive stock levels, and the non-recurrence of prior-year
stock reductions. Third quarter production will be down 174,000 units compared
to second quarter 2010 production, reflecting planned vacation shutdowns during
the third quarter that generally are used to prepare for new models.

Fourth quarter production also will be affected by planned holiday shutdowns and
new product changeovers for vehicles such as Focus and Explorer. Overall, Ford's
third and fourth quarter production schedule is lower than the first half but
consistent with the company's strategy to match supply with demand.

Ford expects full-year 2010 U.S. industry volume will be in the range of 11.5
million to 12 million units. In the 19 markets Ford tracks in Europe, full-year
industry volume is expected to be in the 14.5 million to 15 million unit range,
reflecting a stronger-than-expected first half offset by a weaker second half.

Ford now expects full-year 2010 U.S. total market share and its share of the
U.S. retail market to be improved compared with 2009. Europe market share for
the full year is now expected to be about equal to the first half of 2010, but
lower than 2009, reflecting the company's decision to limit increases in
incentives in the region.

Ford is on track to improve full-year quality for all regions, compared with a
year ago.

Ford has achieved significant structural cost reductions over the past four
years. In 2010, Ford expects full-year Automotive structural costs to be about
$1 billion higher to support growth and key product introductions. Ford's cost
structure, however, continues to improve as a percentage of revenue. Ford also
expects full-year commodity costs to increase by about $1 billion.

Capital expenditures were $1.9 billion in the first half. Ford expects full-year
capital spending to be about $4.5 billion to support its product plan, as the
company continues to realize efficiencies from its global product development
processes.

Ford Credit now expects full-year 2010 profits to be higher than its 2009
profits. The second half of 2010, will be lower than the first half because Ford
Credit expects smaller improvements in the provision for credit losses and
depreciation expense for leased vehicles compared with the improvements during
the first half.

Ford expects to have solid financial results in the second half, continuing to
exceed the expectations it had earlier this year.

As in most years, Ford's first half results will be stronger than second half,
reflecting normal seasonality - including lower second half volumes related to
planned shutdowns and product launches. This year, Ford also expects higher
investment and costs in the second half to support growth and key product
introductions, as well as higher commodity costs and smaller reductions in
reserves at Ford Credit.

Overall, Ford is on track to deliver solid profits and positive Automotive
operating-related cash flow for 2010, providing a solid foundation for
continuing growth.

2011 Outlook

For 2011, based on present planning assumptions, Ford expects continued
improvement in total company profitability and Automotive operating-related cash
flow, including improvements in its Automotive operations. These improvements
are driven primarily by the growing strength of Ford's global products,
continued cost structure improvements and the gradually strengthening global
economy.

Ford Credit will continue to be solidly profitable for 2011 but at a lower level
than 2010, reflecting primarily a lower occurrence of this year's favorable
factors.

By the end of 2011, Ford expects to move from a net Automotive debt position to
a net cash position.

Overall, Ford said its performance gives it great confidence going forward. It
has aggressively restructured its business to be profitable in the current
environment and, going forward, it will continue to:

-- Expand its business, particularly in the growth regions of the world,
such as China and India
-- Improve its overall cost structure and achieve competitive costs while
strengthening further its operational excellence
-- Take actions to strengthen its balance sheet and become investment grade

"Our business performance this year and the growing success of our products give
us great confidence going forward," Mulally said. "Our plan is to continue to
enhance our operational excellence and improve our competitiveness to continue
to deliver profitable growth for everyone associated with Ford."

Ford's 2010 planning assumptions regarding the industry and operating metrics

Ford Motor Company, a global automotive industry leader based in Dearborn,
Mich., manufactures or distributes automobiles across six continents. With about
178,000 employees and about 80 plants worldwide, the company's automotive brands
include Ford, Lincoln and Mercury, production of which has been announced by the
company to be ending in the fourth quarter of 2010, and, until its sale, Volvo.
The company provides financial services through Ford Motor Credit Company. For
more information regarding Ford's products, please visit www.ford.com.

The financial results discussed herein are presented on a
preliminary basis; final data will be included in Ford's Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. As a
result of Ford's agreement to sell Volvo, 2010 results for Volvo
are being reported as special items and excluded from operating
results; 2009 operating results include Volvo unless otherwise
indicated. As disclosed last quarter, the new accounting standard
for variable interest entity consolidation, effective Jan. 1, 2010,
required Ford to deconsolidate many of its joint ventures. In
addition to results in the second quarter of 2010 reflecting this
new standard, 2009 results have been adjusted to reflect the
deconsolidation of many of Ford's joint ventures, with Ford's joint
venture in Turkey, Ford Otosan, being the most significant. For
wholesale unit sales and production volumes, amounts include the
sale or production of Ford-brand and JMC-brand vehicles by
unconsolidated affiliates. JMC refers to our Chinese joint venture,
Jiangling Motors Corporation. See materials supporting the July 23,
2010 conference calls at www.shareholder.ford.com for discussion of
wholesale unit volumes. Discussion of overall Automotive cost
changes is at constant exchange and excludes special items and
discontinued operations; in addition, costs that vary directly with
production volume, such as material, freight, and warranty costs,
are measured at constant volume and mix (generally, by holding
constant prior-year levels). See tables following the "Safe
Harbor/Risk Factors" for the nature and amount of special items,
and reconciliation of items designated as "excluding special items"
to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Also
see the tables following "Safe Harbor/Risks Factors"
reconciliation of Automotive gross cash and operating-related cash
+ flow to GAAP.
++ Excluding special items.
Excluding special items and "Income/(Loss) attributable to non-
controlling interests." See tables following "Safe Harbor/Risk
Factors" for the nature and amount of these special items and
+++ reconciliation to GAAP.

overcapacity, currency fluctuations, or other factors;
-- Adverse effects from the bankruptcy, insolvency, or government-funded
restructuring of, change in ownership or control of, or alliances

-- Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, and
interest rates;
-- Economic distress of suppliers that may require us to provide
substantial financial support or take other measures to ensure supplies
of components or materials and could increase our costs, affect our
liquidity, or cause production disruptions;
-- Single-source supply of components or materials;
-- Labor or other constraints on our ability to restructure our business;
-- Work stoppages at Ford or supplier facilities or other interruptions of
production;
-- Substantial pension and postretirement health care and life insurance

amount to the seller ("take-or-pay" contracts);
-- Adverse effects on our results from a decrease in or cessation of
government incentives related to capital investments;
-- Adverse effects on our operations resulting from certain geo-political
or other events;
-- Substantial levels of Automotive indebtedness adversely affecting our
financial condition or preventing us from fulfilling our debt
obligations (which may grow because we are able to incur substantially
more debt, including additional secured debt);
-- Failure of financial institutions to fulfill commitments under committed
credit facilities;
-- Inability of Ford Credit to obtain competitive funding;
-- Inability of Ford Credit to access debt, securitization, or derivative
markets around the world at competitive rates or in sufficient amounts

preparing forward-looking statements will prove accurate, or that any projection
will be realized. It is to be expected that there may be differences between
projected and actual results. Our forward-looking statements speak only as of

* As disclosed, our UAW VEBA Note B allows us to elect to satisfy
each scheduled payment by delivering cash, Ford Common Stock, or a
combination of cash and Common Stock. For purposes of disclosing the
maximum potential dilution to our shares that could occur over time,
we
present our diluted EPS calculation assuming we were to elect to
satisfy each scheduled payment on Note B over time in shares rather
than
cash, holding constant the 30-day volume-weighted average price per
share for the Second Quarter period-end as calculated pursuant to
the
terms of Note B. Using this assumption, our diluted EPS includes 466
million and 465 million potential dilutive shares in the Second
Quarter and
First Half, respectively, related to Note B, which reduced our Second
Quarter and First Half diluted EPS by 5 cents per share and 8 cents
per
share, respectively. As previously disclosed, we will use our
discretion in determining which form of payment makes sense at the
time of each
required payment, balancing liquidity needs and preservation of
shareholder value. We made our December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2010
scheduled payments on Note B in cash. As announced, the terms of
Note B recently have been amended, subject to regulatory approval,
to
provide us greater flexibility through mid-2013 to pre-pay more
frequently (i.e., at each month end except May and June) all or a
portion of the
remaining Note B obligation in cash at a discount. Pre-payments may
be made in cash at a 5% discount prior to 2012, and at a 4% discount
during 2012-2013.
** Excludes Income/(Loss) attributable to non-controlling interests
and the effect of discontinued operations; special items detailed
above.
