Ford U.S. sales in April jumps 16 percent


By Xu Jing

CHICAGO, May 1 (Xinhua) -- Ford Motor Co. reported Thursday that it sold 208,675 new vehicles in the United States in April this year, compared with 179,588 sold in April 2024, up 16 percent year on year.

The U.S. automaker attributed the record growth to its "From America, For America" employee discount pricing campaign, in which it is offering savings of roughly 2,000 U.S. dollars to 10,000 dollars per vehicle on most of its lineup to counter the negative impact of the 25-percent tariffs on imported vehicles. The campaign will run through the July 4 weekend.
