Auto giant Ford sold almost two million vehicles in the United States last year, the company said Thursday, buoyed by accelerating electric vehicle sales and continued growth in internal combustion engine trucks.
These figures represented an increase of just over seven percent year-on-year, the company announced in a statement, a day after rivals General Motors and Toyota also reported a rise in US sales.
“In a year of challenges, from a labor strike to supply issues, our amazing lineup of gas, electric and hybrid vehicles and our fantastic dealers delivered solid growth and momentum,” Ford chief executive Jim Farley said.
