We used to cancel vehicles that sold such low volumes. If we sold a Blue Cruise subscription with every one of the 41,236 EVs sold in 2022, the 2022 subscription revenue is less than $85,000. I’d love to see the spreadsheets someone is giving Farley showing billions in subscription and data sales revenue. It’s NOT happening.
“Ford EV Sales Tripled in September”
Ford on Oct. 4 reported that its EV sales tripled in September compared to the same period in 2021 with 4,691 vehicles sold for a 197.3% increase over the 1,578 sold last year. The big difference between the two periods was that Ford only offered the Mustang Mach-E in 2021.
Ford ramped up sales of the Mustang Mach-E in September to 2,324 vehicles for a 47.3% increase over last year, while it also rolled out the F-150 Lightning, with 1,918 sold in the month, and the E-Transit van, with 449 sold. Ford has sold 8,760 F-150 Lightning pickup trucks since it was launched in June. Ford rolled out the E-Transit in February.
Ford, however, only sold a total of 18,257 EVs in the third quarter, compared to Tesla's 343,830. The automaker has sold 41,236 EVs in the first three quarters of 2022. The company said that its sales amount to about a 7% share of the total EV segment.
