Ford’s December sales rise 8.2%

Ford Motor Company announced an increase in sales of 8.2% when customers in the US bought or leased 304,293 cars and trucks from Ford, Mercury, Lincoln, Jaguar, Volvo, and Land Rover dealers in December 2002.

“We’re encouraged by our steady progress in winning back US market share,” said Jim O’Connor, Ford Group VP of North American marketing, sales, and services. “We’re a stronger company than we were a year ago when we announced the Revitalization Plan. Our goal in 2003 is to build on the foundation we laid in 2002.”

As a result, the company announced it is ramping up production by 10,000 units for the first quarter in North America to 1.01 million vehicles. Ford’s F-Series model was America’s best-selling vehicle in 2002, totaling 813,701 sales.
