Ford reported a 10.3% decline in US new vehicle sales for the second quarter, selling 549,200 vehicles compared with 612,095 a year earlier. Pure EV sales plunged 40.7% year on year. F-Series truck sales, including the F-150, fell 11% after Ford’s top aluminium supplier suffered two factory fires late last year that disrupted production.
