Ford built 15,007,033 Model T automobiles before production ended in 1927.
The Model T transformed automobile ownership by combining standardized engineering with large-scale factory production. Ford introduced it in 1908, and improvements in manufacturing—especially moving assembly-line methods—helped reduce production time and selling prices.
The total is commonly rounded to 15 million, but 15,007,033 is the frequently cited production figure. That number covers the Model T’s long production run, including cars assembled in Ford facilities outside the United States. The car was offered in several body styles, although its mechanical design remained highly standardized.
The Model T’s production record stood until the Volkswagen Beetle surpassed it in total units. Ford ended Model T production in 1927 after the market increasingly favored newer designs and more features.
