“Both Fusion and Escape set records in August, each continuing

pickup in the U.S.”

increase of 19 percent. Retail sales for the month were up 23
percent. Fusion posted retail sales gains in every region, with the
car’s largest increase coming from the West – up 27 percent.

F-Series monthly sales totaled 68,109 vehicles. This marks the
sixth consecutive month above the 60,000 vehicle threshold.
