Ford is launching the Fathom, described as the cheapest American electric vehicle capable of powering a house or feeding energy back to the grid. Alongside it, the company is rolling out two new chargers with vehicle-to-everything, or V2X, capability, letting the car's battery supply a home during outages or support the power grid. The move positions Ford against rivals in the growing bidirectional charging market.
