World/ Latin American Fiesta Takes the Sales Crown

February 24, 2011
By: Austin Rutherford

Due to a lack of foresight, distraction due to PAG, and other issues, Ford fell behind in many of the world’s emerging markets including China and India. Now since many of these distractions are gone, it is time not just to expand. We are talking about investing not just in those markets where Ford fell behind in but also those that are ready to emerge.

There are dozens of markets around the world that could emerge soon and Ford needs to take the lead before—not after—they emerge. The investing should include plants and dealer networks.

Many of these countries lie to Africa and Central Asia.

Ford simply needs to do this to vastly expand beyond their competitors in the coming years.


Ford of North America

Sales in the United States gained market share for the second year in a row thanks to a 19% rise. Canada sales gained market share as well and upgraded to be the largest seller in the land for the first time in decades. Things did not go as well in Mexico as sales were stagnate in an up market.

The new vehicles launched in the markets of North America included new facelifted Edge and MkX, Fiesta, and Explorer. New engines were also launched in the Mustang and F-Series.

Ford sold more full size trucks in North America than any other company in 2010.


Ford of South America

Ford do Brazil’s sales were up, but Ford’s market share still was a stagnate 10%. 2010 saw the introduction of facelifts for the locally designed Fiesta, EcoSport, and Edge. Also, the World Fiesta was launched having been imported from Mexico. The Ford Fusion became the first vehicle in Brazil to be offered in a hybrid.

Ford small brand, Troller, celebrated the 10,000th sales of the T4 off-roader in 2010.

Ford Argentina relaunched the Transit in 2010 as well as the facelifts for the Mondeo and S-Max. Like Brazil, Argentine sales were up, but with stable market share.


Ford Europe

After a great start to the year, Ford Europe’s sales fell harshly as scrappage programs ran out in the major markets in Europe. This also led to a loss in market share. The good news is that Ford refused to put large amounts of cash, unlike other automakers that put sometimes in upwards of 20% off on the hoods.

A new subsidiary was formed in Europe in 2010. Ford Romania was born due to Ford’s takeover of a Daewoo plant in the country. That plant, having been retrofitted, now builds the Transit Connect.

During 2010, Ford Europe launched facelifts for the Mondeo, S-Max, and Galaxy. They also launched the all new C-max and Grand C-Max, which will be sold in the United States as well by the end of 2011.

The best selling market was, as usual, the United Kingdom. It was however not the best selling market every month. Turkey made a huge jump to overtake in December proving that eastern euro markets are moving in as an important part of the overall market.


Ford Asia Pacific and Africa

This area proved, as Ford predicted, to be the fastest growing of any of the four major areas. Indian sales were the fastest growing, but China sales were the largest in volume.

Due to the large success of the Figo, Indian sales tripled. The Figo became the most awarded car in Indian history thanks to its features and price.

Ford China sales were up 40% from 2009 as sales from the Focus and vehicles produced under JMC grew greatly in the world’s biggest market.

Sales in many Southeast Asian countries were up thanks to the added production of the Fiesta in Thailand.


Obituaries

The slow selling LCF ended sales in 2010 due to new emission standards that its diesel engine could not handle. The vehicle had been launched for MY2006.

Having the new and better Flex coming out the gate, the Taurus X knew its life was going to end before it was even born. Lanuched for MY2008, it only lived for two model years before being given the axe. This is one vehicle that Ford wishes it could forget.

The Mercury Sable was born as a sister car to the fast selling Taurus in 1986. In had been killed off in 2005 only to be reborn for 2008 and with its boring, uninspiring design, it finally experienced its last sale in 2010.

Born as a cheap sedan version of the Ford Fiesta, the Ikon sold for years in Latin America and Asia. Though it had been dead for years in most markets, it had lived on in India. With a new Fiesta around the corner, something had to be cut and the axe came to the Ikon. The vehicle experienced its last sale in December.

Born in MY2006, the Mercury Milan was a sister car to the Ford Fusion and Lincoln MkZ. In May 2010, Ford announced the death of the entire Mercury brand and therefore, the Mercury Milan was killed off as well. It lasted five model years and two generations with sales ending in December.

After sales ended for the Ford Ikon in China, its assembly machinery was “sold” to JMC. The vehicle was given a new face and given the name Landwind Fenghua. With low sales, its days were numbered from the start and it recorded its last sale in November.

Around 2003, with lowering sales in its Mercury brand, Ford began a product offensive in the brand. The bad part was that they were all rebadges. In that time, the Mercury Mariner was born and actually caught on unlike some of the others. It experienced its last sale in December with the death of the entire brand.

Along with the death of the Milan and Mariner, the Mountaineer also had its last sales in December. It was born in MY1997 and went through 3 generations.


Changes

Due to the merging of the “North American Focus” and “World Focus,” it is no longer needed to be separated. From now on, “Focus” will be used.

Now that the “Indian Ikon” is dead, the “Indian Fiesta/ South Africa Ikon” will drop “South African.”

With the new larger World Ranger, it will now be considered "Mid-Size."


Where were the sales?

For a market to be included in the following list, it must have contributed to at least one month with at least one model’s sales. The markets which added sales in 2010 were Algeria, Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Columbia, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Malaysia, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, United Kingdom, United States, Uruguay, Venezuela, and Vietnam.

It's also good to know where Ford is headed: EV!

http://www.ctv.ca/CTVNews/Autos/2011...o-show-110224/

In less than 10 years, the Ford Motor Company expects that 20 per cent of its fleet will be electrified -- either hybrid or fully electric.
By 2025, just five years later, Ford expects that number to climb to 25 per cent, said Barb Samardzich, Ford's vice president of global product programs. And of that 25 per cent, just over five per cent are expected to be fully electric.
Leading the fleet into that new era of electrified vehicles will be the Ford Focus -- a vehicle that began as a lowly regarded economical compact in 2000, and has newly earned a reputation for good looks, dependability and a competitive price point.
And as of this year it will also come in three options: fully electric, hybrid or the traditional gas-powered version.
Samardzich was at Toronto's Canadian International Auto Show to tout the Focus EV -- the electronic version of the popular model, with the same sleek lines and looks and none of the dorky Prius-like stylings that were once emblematic of ‘green' cars.
That's important if people are to make an "emotional connection" with the vehicle, she said.
"The first thing that makes someone say, ‘Oh, maybe I should check that out,' is the look of the car," Samardzich told CTV.ca.
Once consumers are sold on the vehicle's aesthetic, it becomes much easier to convince them of the other benefits -- like the fact it doesn't use gasoline and has zero emissions, for instance.
The sleek model unveiled at the Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto looks good, and if Ford is to be believed, it will be one of the most advanced electric cars on the market.
"The zero-CO2-emissions, gasoline-free version of Ford's popular small car is the flagship of the company's growing fleet of hybrid, plug-in hybrid and all-electric vehicles coming to North America and Europe by 2013," stated a press release from the company.
Ford says the EV will get better mileage than the Chevrolet Volt, will charge in as little as three hours -- half the time the Nissan Leaf requires -- and will come with a smart phone app for monitoring functions and charge settings, while mobile.
Derek Kuzak, Ford's VP of global product development, said the car is a game-changer that will "transform the way customers think about energy usage and their transportation needs."
Jil McIntosh, a contributor to the Toronto Star's Wheels section and an automobile journalist of nearly 30 years, said history will definitely look back on 2011 as a key year for the electric car movement -- marking the first time plug-in cars like the Focus and LEAF became available on showroom floors.
But she doesn't think electric cars will change the world. At least not right away. McIntosh believes electric cars will remain a niche market until a few key changes take place.
"I think the major problem is that gas is too cheap," she told CTV.ca, pointing out that fuel costs are double, or even triple, in Europe, where hybrid and fuel-efficient cars are most successful.
"You've got the government of Canada and the United States giving rebates, putting electric vehicles in their municipal fleets, putting charging systems in across the country, but the one thing they will not do, because it's political suicide, is raise the price of gasoline."
McIntosh said she used to believe it would take just one clever idea to forever change the auto industry. But now her perspective has changed. People's needs are so diverse, and the capabilities of hybrids, electric and gas-powered cars are so varied, that no single option will work for everyone.
As a result, while new technologies like electric cars add exciting possibilities to the industry, they aren't likely to force any of the others into obsolescence.
"You will always have the people who want one just because it's trendy and it's the latest and greatest, and basically the equivalent of the iPad," she said.
"But people want two things out of transportation: they want it to be convenient and inexpensive."
Hybrids are convenient, but they're expensive compared to their gasoline-powered equivalents. Electric cars are also at a higher price point, and with a charge time of several hours, few charging stations and limited range, they just aren't convenient for many people.
Until that changes, the industry isn't going to experience a major shift to one type of product change, McIntosh said.
Instead, she predicts a future where homes on a residential street will have a mix of vehicles each best suited to the owners' needs, from big work trucks to electric cars, minivans or even bicycles.
"I think the future of the auto industry is to make a wide variety of options available and for people to purchase the option that works best for them and in some cases that might be no car at all, it may be car sharing or public transit," McIntosh said.

...plus in 2012 they will be releasing all new diesels and rnager line-up di ba. They are really better compared to GM and Chevy right now esp since the recession in the US.
