This healthy increase in Ford Brazil sales in October represents the second consecutive monthly increase as well as the third positive result for The Blue Oval so far this year in the Brazilian market, where FoMoCo has gone from being a major local manufacturer to a national sales company that solely imports vehicles starting in the beginning of 2021.
As in September, Ford’s improvement over the past month in Brazil was primarily driven by volume stabilization of its now-best-selling product, the Ford Ranger. Although the midsize truck reduced its sales year-over-year, the Ranger’s 1,403 deliveries in October is a marked improvement over previous months.
In addition, the Ford Territory is the only nameplate that managed to post an increase in sales during the month, with additional volume being gained from sales of the Bronco Sport and Transit. In addition, the first five units of the Ford E-Transit were sold in the Brazilian market during October.
It stands out from the pack in one big way.
Increasing costs and 2026 model year vehicles are keeping things afloat.
The plant used to build Troller models years ago.
It will reportedly be built alongside the Kuga in Spain.
A problem that could get unsuspecting consumers in big trouble.
Those facilities may build batteries for more than just EVs.
