“The popularity of the Ford Ranger and the Ford Territory among Filipino customers continued to reflect in our overall vehicle sales, and with that, we are thankful to our dealers and customers for their trust to the Ford brand,” says Michael Breen, managing director, Ford Philippines.
On a quarterly performance, vehicle sales rose by 21 percent in the third quarter of the year from a year ago to 4,849 vehicles. The robust sales performance in the recent quarter was also driven by the Ford Ranger with 2,180 vehicles sold and the Ford Territory with 1,669 vehicles sold.
September was also a month of milestones for Ford’s retail performance, as it posted its best retail month in 2021 with 1,783 vehicles sold, a 15 percent lift from last year. The Ford Territory also achieved its best retail month in September since it was launched in 2021 with 742 units sold.
“We are optimistic that we will end the year on a high note as we commit to creating must-have products and services and finding ways to enhance the Ford ownership experience by treating our customers like family,” adds Breen.
