Isuzu Commercial Truck of America, Inc. reports that 2018 was its new benchmark for sales of Isuzu-brand trucks and Isuzu parts. Isuzu dealers retailed 23,914 Isuzu trucks to customers in 2018, and Isuzu parts sales increased 5.9% versus 2017. This marks the fourth year in a row that Isuzu has established records in both of these categories, the company reported.

“Despite increased competition, four factors worked in our favor to make 2018 a banner year,” said Shaun Skinner, president of Isuzu Commercial Truck of America and Isuzu Commercial Truck of Canada, “those factors being the loyalty of our customers, the dedication of our dealer body, the hard work of our field force and the superiority of our product line.”

“We anticipate that we will continue our momentum in 2019,” Skinner continued. “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. With a lineup that ranges from Class 3 to Class 6 and includes diesel, gasoline, LPG and CNG engines, we are well positioned to make 2019 another record-breaking year for Isuzu.”
