"Ford Celebrates Robust 7.1% Sales Growth in 2023, Leading in Trucks Despite Slower EV Expansion"

TL;DR Summary
Ford's sales in the US increased by 7.1% in 2023, reaching nearly 2 million vehicles, marking the company's best performance since 2020. The growth was driven by strong truck sales, including a significant rise in sales of hybrids and EVs, with Ford becoming the second-largest EV seller in the US. Despite a modest Q4 increase due to a labor strike, Ford's CEO Jim Farley anticipates a strong 2024 with new vehicle launches. However, the company faced challenges with numerous recalls, including a recent one affecting the F-150 pickup.
