Mr. Pham Van Dung, managing director of Ford Vietnam, said the market share had jumped by 1.1 percentage points from last year.

Four out of Ford’s line-up of seven vehicles -- EcoSport, Ranger, Transit, and Explorer -- remain the top sellers in their segments, he said.

In May, the company’s overall sales rose by 6 percent year-on-year to 2,451 units.
