DETROIT \u2014 Ford Motor<\/a> on Tuesday said its U.S. vehicle sales last year increased 6% to achieve the company’s best annual sales since 2019.<\/p>\n The Detroit automaker reported sales of 2.2 million vehicles in 2025, including a 2.7% uptick to more than 545,200 units during the fourth quarter. In 2019, the automaker sold 2.42 million vehicles in the U.S.<\/p>\n Ford finished the year as the third-largest automaker in the U.S. behind Toyota Motor<\/a> and domestic sales leader General Motors<\/a>. <\/p>\n Ford’s U.S. vehicle sales for the year were largely in line with analyst expectations, such as those from Cox Automotive, which expects industrywide sales to have\u00a0risen about 2%<\/a>\u00a0to 16.3 million units in 2025.<\/p>\n “We’re really pleased with where we finished the year,” Andrew Frick, president of Ford’s non-fleet vehicle businesses, said during a media call. “As the year unfolded, we saw really good performance throughout. … We outperformed the industry for 10 straight months.”<\/p>\n Ford’s fourth-quarter performance came as it continues to battle production troubles with its F-Series pickup trucks due to two separate fires<\/a> at a New York plant of key aluminum supplier Novelis.<\/p>\n Frick said the automaker “seems to be on track” to offset lost production of tens of thousands of its lucrative pickup trucks this year, including adding another shift to a plant in Michigan.<\/p>\n F-Series sales, including the popular F-150, were up 8.3% in 2025, but off 3.1% during the fourth quarter. <\/p>\n
