The Ford Authority Take

Ford Motor Company Korea sales increased significantly in September – when the automaker posted one of best records in its contemporary history in the Asian country. The performance represents the second consecutive month of sales growth for FoMoCo in Korea. Additionally, the outstanding performance represents FoMoCo’s best monthly performance in the first nine months of the 2020 calendar year.

The impressive 171 percent jump in sales volume is attributable to the excellent local performance of the company’s new three-row, midsize-plus crossovers – the Ford Explorer and Lincoln Aviator. In September, both models saw sales volumes increase dramatically thanks to improved availability.
