The new year is proving to be a better start for GM. CheersandGears.com reported that for the month of January, GM dealers had 146,825 total sales (including other brands), representing a total sales increase of 14 percent from the previous year.
“This is the fourth month in a row that Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac have shown a collective year-over-year retail sales increase,” said Susan Docherty, GM vice president, Sales, Service and Marketing. “Our long-term plan to continue to focus and strengthen our brands is delivering results.”
Some other facts you might want to know.
The Chevrolet Malibu has been A Consumers Digest Best Buy for 2009 and 2010 model years and beat out Toyota Camry and Ford Fusion for January sales. Not only has it been acclaimed critically, but it beats out Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, and Ford Fusion with its 33 MPG highway. See a complete overview of the Malibu here, with comparisons, accolades, and reviews.
In their first year, GM Crossovers, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain, have become the second best-selling crossovers in the industry (cheersandgears.com).
Chevrolet dealers sold 5, 371 Camaros. This is the eighth straight month it has outsold Mustang.
Equinox sales were up 67%.
The GMC Terrain nearly tripled the sales of the Pontiac Torrent that it replaced and beat out the Ford Flex by 3, 272 more sales.
Buick LaCrosse gained market share with retail sales of 142%.
Those of just a few of the highlights from GM, but I encourage you to read GM’s informative blog, GM Fastlane Blog. They update daily and concisely with information that will benefit you, the consumer, as you are searching for your next vehicle.
I also want to remind you that GM is a proud sponsor of the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics. Check out this beautiful shot by Chris Gordaneer. The previous one is shot by him as well.
And, check out this commercial for GM as well, as it highlights some of our vehicles and what they have to offer.

GM's top selling sedan, the Chevrolet Malibu
While we hear a lot of gloom and doom right now, and understandably so, what we don’t always hear are the small bits of hope—the little stats and numbers that show small progressions in the direction that we are all trying to go towards. While numbers for March vehicle sales still proved to be low, the increase from February to March gives some hope that the consumer is still looking for quality as well as a bargain in these economic times.
Automakers sold 857,735 light vehicles last month. MSN posted an article yesterday on the numbers and this glimmer of hope.
“Despite the declines from a year ago, GM, Ford, Chrysler and Toyota all posted double-digit improvements from February, when industrywide U.S. sales hit their lowest point in more than 27 years.”-(Associated Press)
GM sold 155,334 light vehicles, while Toyota sold 132,802. Ford had 131,102, and Chrysler had 101,001.
“One bright spot was the Malibu, GM’s top-selling sedan. Its sales fell just 2 percent from a year ago to 14,772 units.” (AP) Click here to read more from MSN’s article…
So, while these numbers aren’t screaming as loudly as everything else you are hearing, know that we should be hopeful in the midst of it all; continue looking forward while wishing the American automotive business success in its restructuring and getting back on its feet.
