AustriaFord has raised its profit forecast for the current year to between $10 billion and $11 billion due to strong sales of profitable SUV models in the United States. However, revenue fell by four percent in the previous quarter to $50.2 billion, partly due to reduced availability of pickup trucks after a fire at an aluminum supplier. Higher sales of the Bronco and Explorer SUVs, along with lower losses in the shrinking electric vehicle segment, helped Ford achieve a break-even result rather than a loss of $1.3 billion compared to the same period last year.
