From a market share standpoint, the Mustang enjoyed a segment-leading 43 percent share, up from 40 percent in the year-ago quarter. It was followed by the Challenger with 27 percent (down 1 percent) and the Camaro with 18 percent (down 5 percent). All other segment contenders saw less than 10 percent segment share.
The mainstream, two-door sports car segment contracted 32 percent to 36,923 units in Q2 2020. In that regard, Ford Mustang sales outperformed the segment during the quarter.
The Ford Authority Take
The Mustang continues as America’s best-selling mainstream sports car, outselling all other rivals on a two-to-one basis, and nearly outselling its two primary rivals combined. In addition, the Mustang managed to post the smallest decrease in sales volume among its two primary rivals, despite the COVID-19 virus, and the negative business-level impact brought on by the pandemic.
We expect that, due to the ongoing impacts of the coronavirus, Mustang sales will slip during the third quarter as a result of the negative impact of the COVID-19 virus on both retail sales and daily rental fleet sales. In fact, the virus caused Hertz to file for bankruptcy in May.
Later this year, Ford’s pony will gain a new model in the form of the recently-debuted 2021 Mustang Mach 1, which will indirectly replace the Bullitt and Shelby GT350.

Comments
Imagine what would happen if FORD was Branding the Mustang the right way? The MACH 1 should have replaced the BULLITT with a Ram Air or Shaker hood 550/600SC 5.0, A BOSS 302 & Laguna Seca replace SHELBY GT350 with 650hp 5.0 SuperChargered, RoadRunner The SHELBY Cobra GT500 5.2 760hp is already in place, the return of the King SHELBY Cobra GT500KR 5.2 850hp. All 2021 5.0 standard shifts used TR-3160
Everything you said only makes sense to you and only you.
Ram Air / Shake hood:
Roy’s fiction: a Ram Air or Shaker hood will really increase sales.
Fact: nobody cares except for a handful of people.
Roy’s fiction: Mach 1 should have a supercharged 5.0.
Fact: Mach 1 is a handling package and already has enough power from the tuned Coyote 5.0.
Boss 302 / Laguna Seca
Roy’s fiction: Roy wants Boss 302 and Laguna Seca to make more power.
Fact: these are models focused on handling. Read up on history.
Transmission
Roy’s fiction: TR-3160 transmission is needed.
Fact: the Getrag transmission is just fine. Have you driven one?
Go back on the pills man. The world can’t stomach another loony.
Fact you should keep that hole in your face Shut the people who know BOSS 302 and Shelby Cobra GT350 are Track Cars Fact the MACH 1 like all Mustangs is a trim package that the Shaker / Ram Air was a part of seen more DragRaces Fact that Cool Shaker Hood on the 03-04 sold over 10,000 STANGS, Fact I own a 2012 RTR and 2013 BOSS 302 which have the same transmission MT82 that FORD is in court for, So instead of trying to attack someone you know nothing about keep your comment about the car People could care Less want you think about Me Keep Your Dam Mouth CLOSED if you have no life but to attack others
Fact vs. Fiction is pretty much FICTION (qualified to be a lifer FoMoCo desk jockey bureaucrat with CYA insights like those). Roy Chiles is right. REPEAT ROY IS RIGHT!
BTW, I own a 2019 Challenger R/T and a 2012 Mustang GT with the controversial MT-82, and I’ve driven most all of the current pony car offerings. I bought a Challenger because Ford stopped building RWD cars with a back seat that’s for adults. It was a better value as well, insofar as the V8 Mustangs in stock (while lighter and more powerful) were all in excess of $40,000 — more than 25% higher than what I paid for my 2012. I did the turbo 4 thing with a new SVO back in the day. I’m never buying another turbo 4 Mustang. Sorry “Buddy” (Can’t) Hackett . . . .
Saw the public debut of the Mach I at Mid America Shelby . . . more than a “handful” of core Ford customers wondered where the Shaker hood was (BTW, FCA’s Challenger knows). Many wanted the Mach 1 to have more throwback styling cues. Some thought the redesigned badges looked too plastic and cheap for a car of that anticipated high price.
“Fact vs. Fiction,” handling and horsepower haven’t been mutually exclusive for decades. See e.g. Shelby GT500 (too expensive for me and I hate the “dial” shifter and lack of a true manual transmission, but proof positive that “models focused on handling” can bring some respectable e.t.s)
Under current technology, basically anything worse than ~ 7 pounds per horsepower isn’t really doing enough for the high-performance niche consumer. So ROY IS RIGHT and “Fact vs. Fiction” is just another sycophant who believes every press release and doesn’t get it.
The new Mach-E will add several hundred sales per month soon. By 2021, it will be Ford’s best selling electric sports car. GM and Chrysler have nothing to compete against the Mach-E!
The Mach-E is a completely different vehicle that will be reported on a different line. It’s not a Mustang despite having the Mustang name.
GM will have the most EVs of any automaker by 2023. Ford will only have the “Mustang” Mach-E and the F-150 Electric. FCA will have zero EVs because it hasn’t invested in them.
FORD is Branding the Mustang as it’s on entity, so be it Coupe, Convertible, SUV or Sedan it will counted as a Mustang sale. If you watch the ads the MACH-E has 4 Mustangs 2 on each side, as much as you might not like it, it’s part of the Mustang Family now. That’s how FORD plans to grow the sales numbers
Mach-E isn’t a real Mustang. It shouldn’t be included in “Mustang” sales.
Looks like a mean machine!
And I’ll add to Roy Chiles marketing genius. There should be a 5.0 V8 Mustang specifically aimed at the streetable drag racing niche. Decontented and mostly competition-equipped like the hyper-expensive Super Stock Cobra Jets (without the roll cage, of course, because of the lawyers) but completely emissions-legal to take on the turn-key drag cars from FCA that are showing up at events such as Hot Rod Magazine Drag Week.
Such a car would have to run off the showroom floor in the low tens (the NHRA rules changes make this a more attractive proposition) to make any dent in the psyches of the sportsman racers. While my preference would be turbocharging (probably a “hot-V” EcoBoost Coyote-style V8), I can live with an Eaton Roots-style supercharger to make the necessary horsepower.
I’d call such a vehicle a GT Cobra Jet or a GT Thunderbolt, but what do I know. I’m sure “Fact vs. Fiction” and the other clean-hands, know-it-all sycophantic fan boys will have a snarky reason why such a Mustang shouldn’t be offered. They. Are. Wrong.
