Ford Philippines delivers record sales in 2015

Ford Philippines sales last year jumped a record 25 percent to 25,372 units, firmly establishing Ford as the number three-selling automotive brand in the country.

EcoSport, Everest and Ranger each deliver record full-year sales in the Philippines.

Record December sales soar 48 percent to 2,824 units, capping record quarterly performance with jumping 50 percent to 8,691 units.

The record sales year and continuing momentum helped Ford jump one spot to become the number three-selling automotive brand in the Philippines in 2015.

“It’s been a breakthrough year for Ford in the Philippines. We launched more global Ford vehicles that showcased the very best of Ford, and expanded our retail presence across the country to make the Ford brand closer to our customers through a strong dealer network,” said Lance Mosley, managing director, Ford Philippines. “We’re truly proud of how the Ford brand is being embraced by our Filipino customers.”

The EcoSport compact urban SUV’s continuing impressive run made it Ford’s best-selling nameplate in the Philippines in 2015. December retail sales of EcoSport rose 49 percent to 799 units, helping drive full-year sales up 67 percent to 8,702 units – the highest full-year total for a single Ford nameplate.

The highly capable and versatile Ranger finished 2015 as the second best-selling pickup truck in the Philippines with total retail sales that increased six percent year-over-year to 8,445 units.

“We launched the new Ranger here in August, and it really helped to build on an already strong reputation as the most capable, powerful and smartest pickup in the market,” explained Mosley.
