Coming in dead last in this year’s first-quarter Muscle Car War is the Chevrolet Camaro. Just 6,710 new Camaros in the first quarter of the year. Knowing that Ford wins it all, that of course leaves the Dodge Challenger. Thanks to ‘Dodge Power Dollars’ and the fact that Dodge offers the most manic muscle on the planet, the Challenger has been at the top of the sales charts of late, but that has changed now. The Stellantis-owned brand sold 11,124 units of the V6 or V8-powered muscle car.
That leaves Ford’s numbers, and that’s enough drum rolling. Ford has sold 13,986 units of the Mustang thus far in 2022. It’s important to note that those numbers are just the OG Ford Mustang, not the Mach E and Mach E GT, though Ford did manage to sell 6,734 total units of the electric alternatives. Ford cites an easier time with semiconductors (despite delays) than its rivals, with VP of sales Andrew Frick stating that the brand saw a 74% improvement in in-transit inventory.
