Ford Motor Company continues to reach new heights in China, with
demand rising 24 percent in September. So far this year, sales for
Ford, Lincoln and its joint ventures have totaled nearly 880,000
vehicles, up 11 percent over last year.
The driving force behind Ford’s growth in the world’s largest
auto market has been its expanded SUV lineup. Sales of the Ford
EcoSport, Kuga, Edge, Everest and Explorer, and Lincoln MKC, MKX
and Navigator have totaled nearly 230,000 vehicles this year, an 18
percent increase over 2015.
Chinese car enthusiasts have also made the Ford Mustang a cult
hit. Sales of the iconic pony car have topped 2,300 so far this
year, already surpassing last year’s total. What’s more, the new
Ford Focus reached nearly 20,000 sales in September, up 43 percent
year over year.
“Ford has been building momentum month after month, winning new
customers with the most exciting and appealing lineup we have ever
offered in China,” said Peter Fleet, vice president, Marketing,
Sales and Service, Ford Asia Pacific. “We will continue to listen
to customers and meet their needs with great new cars, SUVs and
commercial vehicles.”
Ford is currently launching the new Kuga SUV across China and
later this year, the new flagship Lincoln Continental starts to
reach dealers.
Annual sales for Changan Ford Automobile, Ford’s passenger car
joint venture, totaled more than 663,000 vehicles, a 14 percent
increase compared to last year. Changan Ford saw a record
September, with nearly 85,000 vehicles sold and a 25 percent
increase compared to September 2015.
Jiangling Motors Corporation (JMC), Ford’s commercial vehicle
investment in China, also set a September record, selling more than
23,000 vehicles, a 28 percent increase compared to last year. Sales
in the first three quarters totaled nearly 183,000 vehicles, steady
compared to last year.
Lincoln continues to see strong momentum as one of the
fastest-growing luxury auto brands in China with nearly 21,000
vehicles sold in the first three quarters of 2016, up 191 percent
compared to last year. September was Lincoln’s best month ever in
China thanks to record sales for all four Lincoln models, including
the new Lincoln MKZ, the Lincoln MKC, the Lincoln MKX and the
Lincoln Navigator.
