Ford brand reports 110,886 vehicle sales in the U.S. in June, which unfortunately is down 26% year-over-year, despite there being high demand, according to the manufacturer. It seems that the semiconductor shortage affects the company significantly.
In Q2, the Ford brand sold 451,813 units, while year-to-date the number is 947,737 (up 4.9% year-over-year).
Out of that, the company sold 56,570 xEVs (BEVs, PHEVs, HEVs) so far this year, which accounts for almost 6.0%.
"Ford sales of electrified vehicles expanded 117 percent in June, capping off a new first-half sales record on sales of 56,570 vehicles."
The all-electric Ford Mustang Mach-E noted 2,465 units (2.2% of Ford's total result), which is noticeably more than in May. Sales in Q2 amounted to 6,361 (compared to 6,614 in Q1), while the year-to-date number is 12,975.
The Mach-E in the U.S. remains production constrained, as the manufacturer reports only 11 days to turn (compared to 7 days in March, 4 days in April and 10 days in May).
"With just 11 days to turn, Mustang Mach-E is essentially selling as soon as it arrives at dealers.Mach-E sales totaled 2,465, with 12,975 Mustang Mach-Es sold through the first half of the year. Customers are telling Ford their primary reasons for purchase is the technology, design and performance that Mach-E provides."
