The Real Reason Ford is Phasing Out Its Sedans
Ford noted the accelerating shift in consumer preference from cars (sedans, hatches, coupes) to beefy vehicles. And how. Sales of car-based models fell nearly 11% in 2017 (AutoData); while sales of pickups, SUVs, crossovers and vans rose 4.3%, to 10.9 million. That was about 60% of all light-vehicle sales.
Isn’t it lucky that Ford’s most profitable vehicles are also its most popular? Later on I’ll propose a more direct through-line.What the fuck???? Supply and demand, when people want a product they are willing to pay more for it...So for FORD, don't you think they would make more of the vehicles that make them money than make a shit car, that Obama's EPA forced them to build??
Basic economics......101....
