随着销量的递增，长安福特对产能的需求也逐渐扩大，其中第五工厂项目也已于2015年正式启动。目前，长安福特第五工厂（哈尔滨工厂）现已投产，整体产能超过140万辆。新工厂将生产长安福特旗下福克斯等车型，提升企业整体生产能力。长安福特第一、二、三工厂分别于2004、2012、2014年在重庆投产，第四工厂也于2015年在杭州投产。据了解，目前三家重庆工厂年产能达115万辆，另一个杭州工厂年产25万辆。哈尔滨工厂产能预计为20万辆，未来长安福特总产能有望达160万辆。2016年，长安福特年销近百万辆，增幅达14%，不断提高的需求也刺激了产能的增加。根据长安福特此前规划：哈尔滨工厂投产后，将投产代号为C346和I06的两款车型。其中C346是福特新福克斯。代号为I06的车型，是长安福特正在推进的合资自主品牌车型。据此前福特发布的“2020”创新战略，从2016年到2020年的五年时间里，福特将在中国追加投资18亿美元支持本地研发和新技术导入，同时承诺在两家合资公司投放20款新车。
