How 2021 is Unfolding

All throughout 2021, and now encroaching on the latter half of the year, Ford has continued to grow, expand, and dominate the industry. This has been exemplified in several of their models. First, there is the Mustang Mach-E, which Car and Driver magazine rated as the “Electric Vehicle of the Year”. Moreover, it also ranked No. 2 in sales in regards to all-electric SUVs in the country.

Second, the illustrious F-150 Lightning, an electric model of the most sought after and in-demand vehicle in America for over 40 years! This monster on wheels has produced over 120,000 advanced bookings since being unveiled back in May. And nearly 75% of them are brand new Ford customers.

Third, the budding Maverick is also showing promise for the remainder of 2021. A small pickup with a 5-passenger capacity, the Maverick has an earmarked EPA-approximation ranking of 40 miles a gallon within the city. Furthermore, it has a starting cost of $20,000.

And finally; the Ford Pro. Adding streamlined, easy, and effortless electric vehicle charging, the Ford Pro is showing potential and is certain to help finish 2021 strong!

These as well as many other models have shaped 2021 for Ford and helped to make it another successful year for the automotive giant. And it certainly seems as though that momentum is going to continue to close out this year while heading into the next.
