HIGHLIGHTS
"Super Duty sales produced a strong gain in November with sales up 7.5 percent. F-150 inventory continued to tighten as we moved through our Q4 changeover to the all-new F-150. This was a result of coronavirus-related production stoppages in Q2 and a strong sell-down of the current model F-150. Dealers are really looking forward to the 2021 F-150, which is now in transit, as well as Bronco Sport and the all-new Mustang Mach-E."
- Mark LaNeve, Ford vice president, U.S. Marketing, Sales and Service
WINNING PORTFOLIO
As America's best-selling van, Ford Transit
November's total industry declined 15 percent on total sales of 1.24 million vehicles. At retail, Ford estimates the industry was off 12 percent, while fleet was down25 percent. Industry declines are largely attributed to one less weekend in November this year than last year and a renewed focus on stay-at-home policies due to rising coronavirus cases.
F-Series sales were impacted by lower inventories attributed to the lingering effects of the Q2 coronavirus production stoppage combined with the transition to the all-new F-150.
While Super Duty sales were up 7.5 percent, F-150 sales were off 45.9 percent. All-new 2021 F-150's began shipping to dealers at the end of November.
Fusion and Fiesta continued to wind down as Ford transitions from cars to SUVs. Ford sales adjusted for F-150's transition and the discontinuance of Fusion and Fiesta were down a more modest 7.4 percent - less than the overall industry decline of 15 percent.
Commercial and government fleet sales recovered and were both up 7 and 14 percent, respectively, compared to a year ago. Daily rental fleets sales continue to weigh on the overall fleet total, with sales down 87 percent.
Explorer sales totaled 18,848, up 21.9 percent over year ago.
Ford also reported its first sales of the 2021 Bronco Sport as Ford transitions from cars to SUVs.
Led by Transit, Ford van sales gained 5.2 percent, on sales of 16,322 vehicles. Transit van sales generated a 13.9 percent gain on sales of 9,917 vehicles.
Mustang retail sales gained 7.4 percent expanding its retail share of segment 1.4 percentage points - totaling just over 32 percent share.
With the overall large premium SUV segment down in November, Aviator gained approximately 3 percentage points of share in November over a year ago at 12 percent share.
