Ford Motor Co. sales jumped 31.5% in June thanks to big gains from its top-selling pickup-truck line, including the electric F-150 Lightning.
Deliveries of F-Series trucks rose 26.3% from a year ago, Ford said in a statement. The automaker’s gains were in stark contrast to an industrywide slump in June.
