The 2nd Quarter Saw An Increase In US Sales For Both Ford And General Motors.

“Ford “had an even stronger quarterly growth as its sales increased by 14.2% year-on-year to 612,095 vehicles, thanks to an aggressive discount policy and promotions, CNN reports.

In the first half of 2025, “Ford “sold 1.11 million vehicles, which is 6.6 percent more than in the same period last year.

In the segment of electrified vehicles (including hybrids and plug-in hybrids), Ford recorded a record result: sales increased by 6.6 percent year-on-year to 82,886 units, reports Tanjug.
