Ford beats Holden first time in 21 years
For the first time in 21 years Ford has outsold Holden giving Ford fans another reason to celebrate the new year.
While preliminary figures show a decline in sales for a second year in a row, Ford have managed to turn the tables on its former rival Holden, which posted its eighth year in a row in decline.
The Ford Ranger ute finished 2018 second in the ‘new-car sales race’ behind the Toyota HiLux. Additionally, the mustang sports car helped Ford overtake its long time rival for the first time since 1997.
The Colorado ute was Holden’s biggest-selling model in 2018 followed by the Astra and Commodore. However the Commodore is selling at less than half the rate of the locally-made model that ended production in late 2017
