“Bottom line, to answer the question, we expect that level of product mix and series mix to continue through the balance of the year.”

In context

“Andrew Frick (President of Ford Blue and Model e): Yeah. Thank you, Alexander. This is Andrew Frick. We have certainly seen product and series mix as a position of strength for us right now. And I think a couple of the key drivers are it is a direct reflection of the choices we have made in our brand positioning as well as some of the regulatory environment changes that help us match customer demand. So Jim made some comments in his opening remarks and I will add a little context to that. We have seen growth in our portfolio mix in large utilities and the Bronco family. In fact, Bronco family had our best first half sales ever. You mentioned off-road mix — we grew that by over 3.5 points in the first half and actually in the second quarter it was up over four points year over year. And we have series mixes like Tremor that is now 15% of our Expedition sales. Raptor is really strong right now across our portfolio — we have grown our Raptor sales by 9% so far this year. And on V8, we are increasing our V8 mix as well. Bottom line, to answer the question, we expect that level of product mix and series mix to continue through the balance of the year.”
