GM Reports February Sales of 333,572, Down 19 Percent
Cadillac Continues To Achieve Significant Gains With 16 Percent Increase
GM Announces February Production Results, Q1 2003 Forecast Unchanged,
Initial Q2 2003 Production Forecast
DETROIT, March 3 -- General Motors Corp. dealers sold 333,572
new cars and trucks in February in the United States, a 19 percent decrease
versus February 2002. GM's overall truck sales (188,954) declined 21 percent,
while car sales (144,618) were down 16 percent.
'February was a challenging month for the industry, with poor weather in
most of the country and significant uncertainty impacting consumers and the
overall economy,' said John Smith, group vice president of North America
Vehicle Sales, Service and Marketing. 'At GM, we had a tough comparison to
our performance last February, which included record truck sales and a total
share of nearly 31 percent. Yet, we're pleased with gains in our retail share
compared to January, and all of 2002, and the prospects of further increases
that will result from the 16 new GM products being introduced this year.'
GM Truck Sales
GM truck sales declined in February, due in large part to record December
sales and comparisons to record truck sales last February. Total utility
vehicle sales for the month (81,843) decreased 20 percent from last year. GM
sold 42,884 midsize utility vehicles for the month, a decrease of 16 percent,
and full-size utility sales (31,445) decreased 30 percent. GM continues to
strengthen its position in the small utility segment as Saturn VUE and
Chevrolet Tracker combined increased 6 percent over last year.
GM Car Sales
Cadillac and Saturn cars posted solid retail gains again, with an increase
of 12 percent and 10 percent respectively. Saturn ION continued to gain
momentum (7,340), and the Pontiac Vibe (5,162) and Cadillac CTS (3,552) both
had solid performances in February. Other GM cars which posted strong sales
in February included Saab 9-3 and 9-5, up 44 percent and 10 percent
respectively, the Cadillac Seville (up 28 percent), and the Chevrolet Impala
(up 3 percent).
Certified Used Vehicles
GM's industry leading certified vehicle program sold approximately 39,383
total certified used vehicles in February, including the Cadillac, Saturn and
Saab certified brands. The GM Certified Used Vehicle brand alone continued to
post impressive numbers, selling 33,525 units. 'Our February sales nearly
doubled last year's total, as we continue to grow our dealers' used car
business and increase our industry leadership,' said Smith.
GM Announces February Production Results, Q1 2003 Forecast Unchanged,
Initial Q2 2003 Production Forecast
In February, GM produced 477,700 vehicles (191,570 cars and 286,130
trucks) in North America, compared to 463,000 vehicles (215,000 cars and
248,000 trucks) produced in February 2002. (Production totals include joint
venture production of 14,150 vehicles in February 2003 and 8,000 vehicles in
February 2002.)
Also, GM North America's current First-quarter production forecast remains
unchanged at 1.43 million vehicles (584,000 cars and 846,000 trucks). In the
first quarter of 2002, GM North America produced 1.353 million vehicles
(600,000 cars, 753,000 trucks).
Additionally, GM's initial 2003 second-quarter production forecast for
North America is 1,390,000 units (557,000 cars and 833,000 trucks). In the
second quarter of 2002, GM North America built 1.553 million vehicles (688,000
cars and 865,000 trucks). The second quarter decrease in production is
attributable to consumer and economic uncertainty as well as the effect of
product start-ups and plant conversions.
GM also announced initial 2003 second-quarter production forecasts for its
international regions:
GM Europe - The region's initial second-quarter production forecast is
491,000 units. GM Europe built 453,000 units in the second-quarter of 2002.
GM Asia Pacific - GM Asia Pacific's initial second-quarter forecast is
82,000 vehicles. GM Asia Pacific built 74,000 vehicles in the second-quarter
of 2002.
GM Latin America, Africa and the Middle East - The region's initial
second-quarter production forecast is 145,000 units, compared to 141,000 units
built in the second-quarter of 2002

words 'expect,' 'anticipate,' 'estimate,' 'forecast,' 'objective,' 'plan,'
'goal' and similar expressions is intended to identify forward looking
statements. While these statements represent our current judgment on what the
future may hold, and we believe these judgments are reasonable, actual results
may differ materially due to numerous important factors that are described in
GM's most recent report on SEC Form 10-K (at page 11-15, 16) which may be
revised or supplemented in subsequent reports on SEC Forms 10-Q and 8-K. Such
factors include, among others, the following: changes in economic conditions,
currency exchange rates or political stability; shortages of fuel, labor
strikes or work stoppages; market acceptance of the corporation's new
products; significant changes in the competitive environment; changes in laws,
regulations and tax rates; and, the ability of the corporation to achieve
reductions in cost and employment levels to realize production efficiencies
and implement capital expenditures at levels and times planned by management.
