Ford Philippines announced that August retail sales reached 1,706 vehicles, led by the Ranger, Everest, and EcoSport.

The Ranger posted August sales of 898 vehicles, pushing its year-to-date sales up 16 percent to 7,616 vehicles compared to last year.

Meanwhile, the Everest SUV recorded sales of 391 vehicles, driving its year-to-date sales to 3,979 vehicles. The EcoSport contributed to the August total with 331 vehicles, pushing its year-to-date sales to 3,989 vehicles.

The new Mustang is continuing to sell well, selling 29 examples, driving its year-to-date sales up 23 percent to 314 vehicles.

“As we continue to refresh our Ford lineup this year, including two of our three top-selling vehicles in the Philippines with the new EcoSport last month and the new Ranger [including the much anticipated Ranger Raptor] later this month, we expect our sales will be given a significant boost through the remainder of the year,” said Bert Lessard, managing director, Ford Philippines.
