- Combustion Mustang sales almost doubled to 4,207 units in November.
- Ford only sold 4,247 F-150 Lightnings, Mustang Mach-Es, and E-Transits.
- EVs look healthier YTD, but they’ve dropped harder than the pony car.
Is the now 61-year-old gas-powered Mustang still relevant in 2025? American drivers clearly think so, judging by fresh sales figures. The pony car Ford has been building since the Beatles were still together is now going toe to toe with the company’s entire electric lineup in a race that’s closer than a Z28 vs Boss 302 quarter-mile grudge match.

According to Ford’s newly released November sales report, the gas-powered Mustang racked up 4,207 sales while Ford’s three EVs combined only reached 4,247. That is a margin of only forty cars.
Mustang sales exploded by 78.6 percent compared with the previous November’s stats, while the EVs lost almost as much ground.

What Happened to the EVs?
Mach-E plunged almost 50 percent to 3,014 units, the F 150 Lightning cratered 72 percent to just 1,006, and the poor E Transit dropped more than 80 percent to 227, figures no doubt deeply affected by the loss of federal tax credits, which expired at the end of September.
To be fair to the EVs, the comparison is more embarrassing in the short term than across the whole year. Year to date, Ford EVs have achieved 78,556 sales while the Mustang trails at 40,870.
Even so, the electric lineup is down 7.3 percent compared with the same period last year, while the Mustang held relatively steady, falling by a less worrying 1.6 percent.

But US drivers didn’t snub their noses at electrification entirely. Hybrid sales climbed 13.6 percent to 16,301 units in November and are up 19.4 percent to 206,497. That means Ford has sold three times as many hybrids so far during 2025 as it has EVs.
Any Bright Spots Beyond the Mustang?
Looking beyond the gas versus electrons drama, there were a few standout performers. Explorer lit up the SUV side with a huge 41.5 percent November gain and nearly 20,226 sales despite celebrating its sixth birthday this year.
The Ranger also punched well above its weight with a 35.8 percent jump as the midsize truck continues its comeback.

}
});
The Maverick is another star performer. Its sales are up 43.3 percent for the month and nearly 12 percent for the year. On the Lincoln side, things were less happy, with November brand sales dropping 12.3 percent, although the Navigator is up 42.9 percent in the first 11 months of 2025.
