Ford Motor Company U.S. Sales Up 1.2 Percent To 220,671 Vehicles In December 2014: By The Numbers

U.S. Ford and Lincoln dealers delivered 220,671 vehicles in December 2014, up 1.2 percent compared to December 2013. The results represent the company’s best December sales since 2005. The sales are flat on a year-over-year basis primarily due to the changeover for the 2015 F-150 and a planned 15 percent reduction in daily rental sales.

“Fusion and Escape posted record years, and our newest products — including Mustang and Transit and Lincolns – are attracting strong customer demand,” said John Felice, Ford vice president, U.S. Marketing, Sales and Service. “Demand for the all-new F-150 also is very high, and it now is the fastest-turning vehicle in Ford showrooms, averaging just five days on dealer lots in December.”

December sales highlights (vs. December 2013, except as noted):

  • Ford brand sales grew 0.4 percent to 210,981 units:
    • Escape was up 4.7 percent to 25,603 units — its best-ever December performance

    • All other Ford vehicles posted drops in year-over-year sales volume
  • Lincoln brand sales increased 21.4 percent to 9,690 units — the brand’s best December sales since 2009:
