Ford Motor Company U.S. sales totaled 188,654 vehicles in
October, down 2 percent from a year ago. Daily rental business
declined 13 percent, while government and commercial sales were up
4 and 18 percent, respectively.
Overall sales declines were expected and tied to the plant
changeover for the introduction of the all-new 2015 F-150. Declines
in daily rental volumes also are part of a planned reduction for
2014. Through October, Ford sales via daily rental channels have
declined 18 percent.
“Fusion is an outstanding success story with October marking six
straight months of record sales,” said John Felice, Ford vice
president, U.S. Marketing, Sales and Service. “Fusion is on pace to
break the 300,000-vehicle mark this year for the first time ever.
Plus, based on the strong sales of the all-new MKC, Lincoln
produced its best sales results in October since 2007.”
Fusion October sales totaled 22,846 vehicles – an increase of 5
percent – representing the car’s best-ever October sales
performance.
Escape reported sales of 24,919 vehicles last month – a 12
percent increase and the vehicle’s best-ever October performance.
Explorer sales increased 6 percent, with 14,455 vehicles sold,
making it Explorer’s best October performance since 2004. Transit
Connect sales gained 28 percent, providing a record October with
4,068 vehicles sold.
Lincoln sales of 8,883 vehicles posted a 25 percent gain and the
brand’s best October results since 2007. MKC continues to lift
Lincoln, with sales of 2,197 vehicles. MKC continues to lift
Lincoln, with its best sales yet last month.
