Ford China sold 935,813 wholesale vehicles in 2013, a 49% on the previous year. Ford said the gain reflected an expanded line-up of products as well as string demand in China.
“2013 has proved to be a milestone year for Ford’s accelerated growth in China as we delivered on our plan to bring to China seven of Ford’s next-generation global vehicles, including the Ford EcoSport, the Ford Kuga, the new Fiesta, and the all-new Mondeo. In 2013, strong Chinese customer demand for our greatly expanded line-up of vehicles allowed Ford China to set yet another annual sales record,” said John Lawler, chairman and CEO of Ford Motor China.
“In 2014, by remaining focused on our plan, we look forward to serving more Chinese customers -growing our capacity, expanding our dealership network, and continuing to bring them high-quality, safe, fuel efficient and smart Ford vehicles.”
Ford’s passenger car joint venture Changan Ford Automobile (CAF) hit a new sales milestone in 2013 with 678,951 wholesales sold in 2013, up 62% on 2012.
The Ford Focus was the biggest selling model for Ford in China with 403,640 wholesales in 2013, up 36% on 2012.
