It now expects to lose $1bn in Europe this year, up from a previous forecast of $500-600m.

Chief executive Alan Mulally told analysts that Ford was reviewing all aspects of its business in Europe.

The US's second biggest car company also warned that its full-year profits would be lower than forecast.

The group also said it expected profits in South America to be "substantially lower" this year.

Ford shares remained at two-and-a-half year lows of $9 in early New York trading.
