Ford recently released its sales figures for September, and for the first time, the Bronco Sport outsold the Escape. The Escape is still in the lead in the year-to-date category, with 111,791 units sold while the Bronco Sport is currently standing at 81,204.
But in September, Ford sold 11,686 Bronco Sports and 11,462 Escapes. Unfortunately, we’ll have to wait a few months to see whether the Bronco Sport wins in the end. This is the first year Bronco Sport will have sales figures from January straight through to December. October, November, and December still have to be counted, but is there a possibility the Bronco Sport can make it?
The difference is just 224 models, but there are a few things worth remembering. Ford had supply issues with the Bronco Sport earlier this year. It also appears that Ford can’t build them fast enough, as some dealers started selling demo models.
