Ford said it sold 14,074 Mustangs in Q1 2026, up 50.1% from 9,377 in Q1 2025, counting only the traditional coupe and convertible rather than the Mustang Mach‑E.
The Mustang accounted for 61.0% of mainstream sports-car sales in Q1, up from 44.9% a year earlier, as the overall segment rose 10.3% to 23,060 sales largely on Mustang volume.
