Isuzu Commercial Truck of America announced that its truck and parts sales hit record numbers in 2018, marking the fourth consecutive year that the company has eclipsed the previous year's performance.
Isuzu dealers sold 23,914 trucks to customers in 2018, a record for Isuzu brand trucks in the U.S. And it also surpassed its 2017 parts sales record last year, increasing that volume by 5.9%.
Isuzu’s commercial truck lineup ranges from Class 3 to Class 6 and includes diesel, gasoline, LPG and CNG engines.
“We anticipate that we will continue our momentum in 2019,” said Shaun Skinner, president of Isuzu Commercial Truck of America and Canada. “Unemployment is low, housing starts are expected to run at strong levels, and consumers continue to turn to online retailers, meaning an increasing need for delivery trucks.”
