Ford's October Sales Decline Despite Record F-150 Lightning Deliveries

Ford's total U.S. sales decreased 5% in October 2022 to 149,938 vehicles. Year-to-date sales are up 8% to 1,658,010.

Electric vehicle sales were up 9% in October to 6,831, led by F-150 Lightning pickup with record sales of 3,172 (up 52%).

But Mach-E and E-Transit sales declined in October compared to last year.

Total Ford EV sales are up 13% year-to-date to 53,502 vehicles, about 3.4% of Ford's volume.

F-150 Lightning production is increasing, but Mach-E production fell in October, putting 210,000/year target for end of 2023 in doubt.
