Prime-TASS News (Russia) reports that Ford Motor Company's plant in the Russian city of Vsevolzhsk in the Leningrad Region plans to increase car output 5.6% on the year in 2004 to 25,000 cars, the press service of the Leningrad Region's government reported Thursday citing the company's Vice President Steve Beagan.
