GM sales in Q2 totaled 714,896 vehicles, down 4.2% which reflected the smaller EV market, discontinued vehicles and some inventory constraints.
“Our business is performing well, and customer demand is resilient, especially for our trucks and SUVs. The depth, breadth and appeal of our vehicle portfolio allows us to lead the market in sales, while maintaining discipline on inventory, pricing and incentives to deliver strong margins.” – Duncan Aldred, GM President of North America.
GM led in full-size pickup and large SUV sales, remained the #2 EV seller in the U.S. and continued offering six budget-friendly Chevrolet and Buick models with starting MSRPs of about $30,000 or less1.
Other highlights:
- GMC recorded its best-ever Sierra sales for the second quarter and best-ever Canyon sales for the first half.
- Chevrolet’s SUV lineup had its best Q2 sales ever, led by growth for Trailblazer, up 28% and Traverse, up 20%. Corvette also had a great Q2 with sales up 24%.
- Buick’s Envista had its best quarter ever while Enclave reported its best quarter since 2021.
- Cadillac delivered its best-ever Q2 of EV sales, driven by OPTIQ and VISTIQ. V-Series also had its best quarter and best first half ever.
- GM led the industry in fleet sales for both Q2 and the first half, driven by strong truck demand from commercial customers.
