This contrasts with overall U.S. retail industry sales, estimated to be flat for the quarter. Total Ford sales outpaced the industry, rising 1% compared with a 2% decline for the overall market. Customers continued to favor hybrid vehicles during the summer months. Sales increased 38% to 48,101 in the third quarter, while electric vehicle sales grew 12%. These results come before customers can take advantage of the new Ford Power Promise which includes a complimentary home charger with standard installation at no extra charge, and access to a 24/7 Ford advisor for electric vehicle support. “Different lifestyles and use cases require unique types of power,” said Andrew Frick, president, Ford Blue and Ford Customer Service Division. “We’ve listened to customers to offer them vehicles with powertrains to meet their specific needs, and their response validates our product strategy.” Truck Leadership Continues The Ford F-Series exemplifies the Ford Freedom of Choice strategy, boasting an unmatched powertrain lineup. With gas and diesel-powered Super Duty trucks and the light-duty F-150 — available in gas, hybrid and electric — F-Series sales totaled 550,835 through September. The F-Series now outsells the Chevrolet Silverado by 138,000 and the Ram by 282,000 trucks, expanding its lead as it aims to be America’s best- selling truck lineup for the 48th consecutive year in 2024. Best-Selling Hybrids F-150 hybrid sales rose 64% in the third quarter to 20,129, making it the best-selling hybrid truck. It topped another Ford model, the Maverick, which saw sales rise 22% to 16,561. The two trucks combined account for 77% of the hybrid pickup segment. Lincoln Nautilus Q3 Sales Best in 17 Years Lincoln sales accelerated in the third quarter, up 26%, driven by the continued strength of the all-new Nautilus and the launch of the new Aviator.
