Ford Motor Company China sales increased 11.9 percent to 167,000 units during the fourth quarter of 2021. The automaker offers its two core brands – Ford and Lincoln – in the Asian country, as well as a China-only brand called JMC under the Jiangling-Ford joint venture.

“Ford starts 2022 with strong momentum from the execution of our China 2.0 plans centered on a robust portfolio and electrification,” said President and CEO of Ford China, Anning Chen, in a statement. “The steady rollout of new vehicles – including the locally built Ford Mustang Mach-E, Ford EVOS and Lincoln Zephyr – combined with the launch of Ford’s network of direct-to-customer battery electric vehicle stores positions us well for growth ahead,” he added.
