“Ford has been Canada’s favorite automotive brand for seven consecutive years and that momentum has carried over into 2016,” said Dianne Craig, president and CEO, Ford of Canada.  “We’re proud to build vehicles that Canadians want—vehicles that fit their various lifestyles, safely keep them connected with what matters, and truly make their lives better.”

Also experiencing significant growth in January were the C-Max (up 35%), Focus (up 7%), Mustang (up 59%), Taurus (up 103%), E-Series (up 124%), Explorer (up 28%), and Expedition (up 39%).

The Lincoln brand as a whole also experienced its best January sales since 1990, up 41% year-over-year thanks to double-digit sales gains across its lineup.

“Canadians continue to embrace Lincoln as the brand redefines the standards you expect from a luxury vehicle,” Craig added. “With quiet luxury and effortless power across the lineup, and the all-new Lincoln Continental coming later this year, we’re looking forward to sustaining Lincoln’s success in 2016.”
