DEARBORN, Mich. -- (Business Wire)
Ford Motor Company U.S. sales totaled 180,383 vehicles in February, down
2 percent from a year ago.
F-Series retail sales increased 7 percent, as the all-new F-150 remains
one of Ford’s fastest-turning vehicles on dealer lots. The training of
employees in the new manufacturing process at Kansas City Assembly Plant
– the second plant building the new F-150 – is now under way, with
production scheduled to begin this month, as planned.
“Strong customer demand for the all-new F-150 drove strong February
F-Series retail sales results in February,” said Mark LaNeve, Ford vice
president, U.S. Marketing, Sales and Service. “The all-new F-150
continues to be the hottest vehicles on dealer lots, turning more than
four times faster than the industry’s overall full-size pickup segment.”
Transit drove a 30 percent increase in total Ford van sales of 13,936
vehicles for the month, including E-Series and Transit Connect. This
marks Ford’s best February van sales performance since 2007.
Explorer sales of 17,027 vehicles were up 32 percent, marking the SUV’s
best February sales results since 2006.
Mustang sales increased 32 percent with 8,454 vehicles sold –
representing its best February sales since 2007 and making it the
best-selling sports car in America since the launch of the all-new model
last fall.
Lincoln retail sales increased 3 percent versus last year. Lincoln MKC
continues to build momentum for the luxury brand, along with Navigator,
which posted a 96 percent sales increase.
