You are 100 percent correct on that. 1970s engine burned fuel so inefficiently.Even granting your point at face value, we have to acknowledge todays engines are burning much cleaner than those of 3+ decades ago. So even for the "same" mpg we are producing less smog. The 2025 NOx standard is a 98% improvement from 1975.
From Ford's perspective, they'd rather dump $$ into EV R&D than ICE vehicles. Maybe the performance lines stay ICE (Raptor R, Mustang GT) but most everything else will be a BEV in 1-2 generations.
