kscarbel2 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Class 8 Jan-May 2014 Jan-May 2016 Freightliner 35.3% 41.18% Navistar 15.31% 11.76% Kenworth 13.56% 13.92% Peterbilt 13.22% 13.17% Volvo 12.74% 9.37% Mack 8.08% 8.07% Bob, why don't you also share with them that Class 6 and Class 7 sales data for May. (and Class 8 too) The list doesn't reflect how Navistar is now most definitely on the comeback trail, but it does show the Mack brand's stagnant market position. Daimler is strolling towards a 50 percent market share in the U.S. market, and those superb Detroit engines are a big reason for that.

KS-here you go; 5 mos ytd 2014 5mos ytd 2016 Ford class 6 32.35% 33.99% 7 8.25% 6.44% F'Liner 6 35.8% 29.25% 7 51.0% 50.84% Hino 6 8.62% 10.53% 7 3.09% 3.22% Nav 6 20.61% 23.20% 7 20.02% 21.56% KW 6 2.32% 2.78% 7 7.62% 7.92% Pete 6 0.29% 0.25% 7 10.06% 10.02% Big winner in 6/7 in terms of market share appears to be Navistar with Hino also showing good % gain. Ford doing well in class 6 but taking big hit in class 7 which in my opinion has to be related to failure to offer a 6 cylinder /Allison combo as an alternative to the Power Stroke/Ford Torqueshift./ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daimler, via Freightliner, already has 50% market share in Class 7, and soon to have in Class 8. In Class 6, averaging 30-35% is nothing to sneeze at. At a Freightliner dealer, you're working with truck people, whereas Ford has car people selling trucks using low price. Navistar has done well with the return of the Cummins option. Many customers are turning to a Cummins-powered Navistar medium-duty because Ford no longer offers it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
