Default FPV Vehicle Sales Breakdown

FPV don’t release a official break down of there vehicle sales.
I have acquired the numbers for the 1st 3 months of this year.
Total units sold for Jan, Feb, Mar are just over 550 Units.
Can’t get a split between the GT & GT-P.
40% GT & GT-P Sedan
38% F6 Typhoon Sedan
15% Pursuit Utes
7% F6 Tornado Utes.

Keep the numbers coming! I wonder how HSV sales compare for the same period. Any idea?

7% of 550 is 39 (approx). There are two of them here, one Bionic and the other Toxic.

It is interesting to note that the Typhoon is the lead selling product........

Plenty of Typhoons up here in central QLD, but I guess a ute is more user friendly to someone out of the major cities.

There probably IS a whole lot of Tornado's around... it's just there's a lot more of the other cars.

There is a F6 Tornado sitting at Titan Ford that will be on display for this weekend. There are 2 on the northern beaches that I know of. One black and one silver (with added orange stripes).

I also know for a fact that Titan Ford has only sold 1 FPV since March. The FTF club hope to change that this weekend.

I would of thought the F6 would of outsold the BOSS engined cars with the petrol prices the way they are,very interesting.

Flappist i don't think if there was a Higher spec F6 or there wasn't a GT-P that sales would of been different.The BOSS powered cars are outselling the Turbo 6 by a fair marging considering the F6 is new,i would of thought with all the hype it would of outsold the 8's.Major factor is fuel prices but it looks like it hasn't really affected sales at all.Good call by FPV,it's giving the consumer a great variety of options. _2:
