If he was going to sell 10k ICE and 2k EV, and instead only supply 5000 ICE, his ratio will have doubled. It doesn’t matter if the 5000 other buyers go elsewhere, he is trying to avoid the fine.
Because he knows he can sell the other 5k on another market, Ford as a business loses a bit but gain good marks for not being fined.
