Ford Blue

Ford Blue sells internal combustion and hybrid Ford and Lincoln vehicles to retail customers, along with service parts, accessories and digital services, and carries the cost of developing, making and distributing them. It is also the engineering and manufacturing arm for the rest of the company: it supplies hardware engineering and manufacturing to Ford Model e and builds vehicles on behalf of Ford Pro and sometimes Ford Model e. Anything in a market that Model e and Pro do not cover sits here, as do sales to commercial, government and rental customers outside the United States and Canada that are not core to Ford Pro, and electric vehicle sales made by the unconsolidated affiliates in China.

Ford Model e

Model e sells the electric vehicles, including extended range electric vehicles, with their parts, accessories and digital services, and it is where electric and digital vehicle technology and software are developed. It supplies software and connected vehicle technology for the whole company and builds certain electric vehicles, including for Ford Pro. It operates in North America, Europe and China, and also books electric vehicle sales to commercial, government and rental customers in Europe, China and Mexico that are not core to Ford Pro.

Ford Pro

Ford Pro is the commercial side: vehicles, parts, accessories and services for commercial, government and rental customers. It holds the core work vehicles, Super Duty and the Transit range of vans in North America and Europe and all Ranger sales in Europe, and in the United States and Canada it takes every vehicle sale to commercial, government and rental customers. It sells internal combustion, hybrid and electric vehicles and the services around a fleet, including telematics and charging. The vehicles themselves are built by Ford Blue and Ford Model e and transferred in at an intersegment markup. Ford Pro operates in North America and Europe.

How the vehicles reach buyers

Almost everything is sold through distributors and dealers, the substantial majority of them independently owned. There were 8,226 dealerships worldwide at the end of 2025 against 9,006 a year earlier: 7,479 Ford, 408 combined Ford-Lincoln and 339 Lincoln. Beyond retail, Ford sells vehicles to its dealerships for fleet customers, daily rental companies and governments, and sells parts and accessories to dealerships and to authorised parts distributors. No single customer matters enough that losing it would materially hurt the business. In the United States in 2025 the company sold 2,204,124 vehicles, of which 84,113 were electric, 228,072 hybrid and 1,891,939 internal combustion. Its share of the United States market was 13.2 percent in 2025 against 12.6 percent in 2024, on industry volume of 16.7 million vehicles. Share was 15.2 percent in Canada, 9.8 percent in the United Kingdom, 5.3 percent in Germany and 1.3 percent in China.

Ford Credit

Ford Credit is vehicle financing and leasing, offered to and through car dealers worldwide, and most of what it does is financing Ford vehicles and supporting Ford dealers. It earns from payments under the retail installment sale contracts, finance leases and operating leases it originates or buys, from interest rate supplements and other support payments made by Ford itself, and from dealer financing programmes. Its receivables and leases split two ways. The consumer portfolio covers individuals and businesses financing a vehicle bought from a dealer, including retail installment contracts on new and used vehicles and finance leases on new ones to retail and commercial customers, leasing companies, government bodies, daily rental firms and fleets. The non-consumer portfolio is lending to dealers: wholesale, or floorplan, loans to finance vehicle inventory, plus loans for working capital, dealership improvements, dealership real estate and other dealer programmes.
