Competitive Sales Comparison

Q1 of 2019 was the first quarter that the Ford Ranger was on the market. During that time, Ford Ranger sales totaled 9,421 units. That’s about one-sixth of Toyota Tacoma sales, a third of Chevy Colorado sales and about one-half the sales volume of the Nissan Frontier. On the flip side, Ford Ranger sales overtook the Nissan Frontier, putting it above the GMC Canyon.

The Tacoma remained America’s best-selling midsize pickup truck during the quarter, followed by the Chevy Colorado in second, Nissan Frontier in third, and the Ranger in fourth. The GMC Canyon was the least best-selling model in the segment.

The Ford Authority Take

It’s great to see Ford gain some footing in the expanding mid-size pickup truck segment. The timing is right for the Ranger’s arrival considering current market trends, which strongly favor crossovers, SUVs, and trucks over sedans – which Ford is discontinuing. In fact, Ford truck sales increased 4.1 percent to 278,898 units during the first quarter.

We expect Ford Ranger sales volume to grow in the coming quarters as interest in the model increases, and availability improves at the retail/dealer level.

  1. If my Ford dealer didn’t have to kiss the gold ring of Ford director of sales, to get a Ranger or two in its inventory, I might have bought several. It was easier to go to the Chevrolet store, They had hundreds to choose from on the lot and they offered HUGE discounts to attempt upping their sales.

    1. Well, no one can stock the vehicles if they can’t make them fast enough Einstein. Ford just began production again this year, first time since the 2011 model and are producing them as fast as they can. With time, the dealers will have sufficient stock, as the Chevrolet and Toyota dealers have. You bought an inferior product based on a protest, so enjoy!
