Another month has passed, and a handful of automakers have reported their May sales results. Hybrids were a strong driver of growth, as the average price of gas remains well above $4 a gallon.
This has been huge for brands like Hyundai and Kia, which offer a range of hybrid and electric vehicles, but last month wasn’t a success for all. Ford saw sales falter last month, continuing a trend, while the affordable Maverick stands out as a popular model.
