Ford Motor Company (F) has reported its best annual U.S. sales since 2019, with a 4% increase to 2.08 million vehicles sold in 2024. This growth was driven by a 38% increase in electrified vehicle sales and a 21% increase in F-Series truck sales in the fourth quarter alone. The company's commitment to offering multiple powertrain options, including gas, diesel, hybrid, and electric models, has allowed it to cater to a wider range of customer preferences and maintain its competitiveness in the market.

Additionally, Ford's electrified vehicles, including hybrids, plug-in hybrids, and electric vehicles, represented 13.7% of the automaker's total annual sales, with a record 285,291 electrified vehicles sold in 2024.
