Ford Q3 Sales Rise on Truck and Hybrid Demand Despite UAW Strike

Ford's Q3 sales rose 7.7% year-over-year boosted by higher truck and hybrid sales.

The UAW strike began Sept. 15 but has had limited impact on Q3 sales so far, though greater disruption expected.

Ford's total sales were 500,504 vehicles, including 20,962 electric vehicles.

Strong results for F-150 (up 13.4%), Maverick, Bronco Sport (up 55.1%), and Mustang Mach-E (up 42.5%).

Inventory was up 68% at the start of September compared to 2022, helping boost sales.
