FordInsideNews Exclusive: Ford's First Half Worldwide Sales Breakdown
Ford introduced many products during the first half. The most notable would be the World Fiesta into the North American Market, but the biggest intro, when you consider market size, was the Figo into the India Market. Thanks to that small car, Ford India sales in the first half outnumbered the sales for all of the 2009. Now when you consider profit, the new Super Duty has sent sales of the World F-Series/Lobo to two year highs. The South American Market didnt have much in terms of new product except for the facelifted L.American Fiesta and EcoSport. Europe only had the notable introductions of the facelifted S-Max and Galaxy. Of course, most new products for the year will come out later this year in all markets and will be included in my full year report. Ford ended the first half #1 in Canada, the United Kingdom, Hungary, and Turkey. It also had huge market share improvements in China, the United States, and India. It also regained the #2 position in the United States. To be included the following list, a market must have added sales for at least one model for at east one month. Markets adding sales below included the United States, the Euro19, the Baltic States, Brazil, Argentina, Australia, South Africa, New Zealand, China, Inda, Chile, Russia, Taiwan, Indonesia, Venezuela, Canada, Turkey, Chile, Mexico, Thailand, South Korea, Algeria, Slovenia, and the Philippines. The race for 1st place in sales was very close between three models, but in the end, thanks to amazing sales in March, the World Fiesta won by a slim margin. In 2nd place was the World Focus with the World F-Series/Lobo right on its tail winning 3rd place. Eventhough the World F-Series/Lobo was in 3rd place, it will likely win for the year judging by sales trends of the past quarter. Model Breakdown 1) World Fiesta - 291,182 2) World Focus - 289,651 3) World F-Series/Lobo - 288,721 4) World Fusion - 126,903 5) World Escape - 121,058 6) N.American Focus - 101,143 7) Transit - 89,631 8) Mondeo - 82,523 9) L.American Fiesta - 69,505 10) Edge - 64,245 11) E-Series - 60,883 12) Euro Ka - 59,100 13) S.American Ka - 49,936 14) Mustang - 42,702 15) N.American Ranger - 40,982 16) Kuga - 39,201 17) Taurus - 39,075 18) Explorer - 36,756 19) Qingka - 34,157 20) C-Max - 33,400 21) EcoSport - 31,254 22) Transit Connect - 30,483 23) Figo - 25,771 24) S-Max - 24,371 25) Flex - 22,727 26) Euro Fusion - 21,690 27) Falcon - 21,683 28) Crown Victoria - 19,271 29) Expedition - 19,058 30) Milan - 16,962 31) Grand Marquis - 15,742 32) Mariner - 15,198 33) L.American Ranger - 14,365 34) World Ranger - 13,145 35) Galaxy - 12,800 36) MkX - 12,267 37) MkZ - 12,064 38) S.American Cargo - 9,443 39) MkS - 8,252 40) Indian Fiesta/S.African Ikon - 8,222 41) S.American F-Series - 8,206 42) Town Car - 6,617 43) Territory - 6,107 44) MkT - 4,496 45) Navigator - 4,442 46) Bantam - 3,810 47) Endeavor/Everest - 3,742 48) Courier - 3,668 49) Indian Ikon - 3,138 50) Mountaineer - 3,031 51) Asian Escape - 2,775 52) Heavy Trucks - 1,527 53) T4 - 993 54) Econovan - 767 55) Euro Cargo - 69 (only Q1 Russian sales) I-Max - Unknown Mark LT - Unknown Baowei - Unknown Baodian - Unknown Discontinued: LCF - 72 Sable - 37 Taurus X - 20 Sales by Category Cars City - 59,100 Sub-Compact - 447,754 Compact - 433,496 Mid-Size - 238,452 Full-Size - 110,677 Utility Vehicles including MPVs Sub-Compact - 52,944 Compact - 216,367 Mid-Size - 159,597 Full-Size - 50,723 Utility Vans Compact - 31,250 Full-Size - 150,514 Trucks Sub-Compact - 7,478 Compact - 68,492 Full-Size - 296,927 Above - 45,268 http://www.fomoconews.com/forums/sho...3717#post33717

Falcon seems to do quite well against Taurus on those figures.
You think with a market like the US, Taurus would be up around 70,000.

Well those figures do raise other issues. I assume the Falcon numbers do include ute sales (as their is no other breakdown for falcon utes). Thus at 21683 (falcon) plus 6107 (territory) the total sales from c'feild production was 27790.
At approx 110 working days this first half year, that only requires approx 252 cars per day. Doesnt seem to require much of the ramping up to 285 per day as speculated by Burella, or even a great need for to be working weekend overtime. |

Also we should remember that volume doesn't equal best. Ford heirachy are very aware of the quality and appeal of the locally designed and made product.
