The Ford Authority Take

Lincoln sales in the United States declined quite significantly in November, the second month that FoMoCo broke a rather recently-established habit of publishing sales results on a quarterly basis. The results represent even more negative performance for FoMoCo’s luxury brand than it has experienced since the second quarter of 2020 in the U.S. market.

In fact, each of seven Lincoln models showed negative year-over-year numbers in November, with sizable double-digit drops. Only the Aviator suffered a single-digit decline. Notably, Lincoln states that Aviator gained about three percentage points of share in November compared to a year ago.

Meanwhile, the Corsair followed the Aviator with the second-lowest rate of decline, remaining the brand’s best-selling model.

Notably, both crossovers are the only Lincoln nameplates that managed to increase sales during the first eleven months of the year in the United States market.

  2. The charts provided don’t have much context if not compared to its competitors, and show Lincoln’s market share. Sure, sales are down in the entire industry, but how did Lincoln fare against its competition? Usually this info is provided on this site, can we get an update?
