GM February Sales
New GM Models Post Strong February Sales, Retail Sales Up 1 Percent
Overall Sales Decline 2.5 Percent Compared to Year-Ago Level
All-New Chevy Tahoe Sales Double From January; HUMMER Hits Sales Record
for 10th Month
Launch Vehicle Retail Sales Up 32 Percent Over January
DETROIT, March 2 -- General Motors (NYSE: GM) dealers in the United States
in February posted a retail sales improvement of 1 percent. Total deliveries
were 301,545 new cars and trucks, down 2.5 percent compared to the same month a
year ago. Total car sales were down 13 percent, and truck sales were up 5
percent. Calendar year sales are up 1.4 percent.
'Consumer response to our new vehicles and segment-leading value resulted
in solid sales results in February,' said Mark LaNeve, General Motors North
America vice president, Vehicle Sales, Service and Marketing. 'Our retail
sales improvement in February was driven by our industry-leading value, not by
fleet sales or high incentives. This resulted in better retail sales
performance by six of our divisions.'
Chevrolet, Cadillac, Pontiac, Buick, HUMMER and Saab all posted retail
sales gains compared to year-ago levels. Three divisions achieved overall
sales improvements in February. HUMMER was up 202.5 percent, driven by
continued strong sales of the H3. Saab total deliveries rose 9.5 percent, and
calendar year sales are up 19 percent. Buick's total sales also improved over
last year and were up 1.7 percent, bolstered by strong Lucerne sales.
Recently introduced vehicles played an important part in GM's February
sales results. Total utility deliveries were up 25 percent compared to last
year. Sales of the all-new Chevrolet Tahoe (6,391) were double last month's
level. Total Tahoe deliveries were up 47 percent compared to last year. The
2007 GMC Yukon posted its first deliveries in February (1,452), as did the new
Cadillac Escalade (1,461).
'It's still early, but we're exceeding all of the important targets for
our new full-size SUVs, particularly the Tahoe, which is the first one to
arrive in dealerships,' LaNeve said. 'The new 2007 GMC Yukon and Cadillac
Escalade are just now arriving in dealerships and are off to a very strong
start.'
LaNeve added that dealers are excited to have the new generation of full-
size sport utility vehicles on their sales floor. 'Dealers tell us they can't
keep them on the lot, with vehicles staying in inventory less than a week on
average,' he said.
Other new utilities that posted strong February results included Torrent,
Pontiac's new compact sport utility, which achieved its second best sales to-
date with 3,946 deliveries, up 33 percent compared to January. Saturn VUE
continued its solid sales streak, with its ninth consecutive month of sales
improvements (+43.5 percent compared to year-ago levels).
February was another record-setting month for HUMMER. It posted year-
over-year record sales for the tenth consecutive month, and its aggregate
deliveries since 2002, when it began selling the H2, surpassed 150,000 units.
On the car side, a number of new GM vehicles also had solid sales in
February. Buick Lucerne deliveries have improved every month since launch,
with February sales 20 percent greater than January levels. Lucerne retail
deliveries in February were over twice the level of year-ago LeSabre retail
sales.
Customer demand for the Pontiac Solstice remains very brisk. In February
it posted among the highest total turn rates of all vehicles in the industry
(39 percent).
For the sixth consecutive month, Pontiac G6 sales exceeded year-ago levels
both in total and retail deliveries. Total G6 sales in February were up 38
percent. These improvements were achieved prior to the introduction of the
new G6 hardtop convertible scheduled to arrive in Pontiac dealerships this
spring.
Certified Used Vehicles
February sales for all certified GM brands, including GM Certified Used
Vehicles, Cadillac Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles, Used Cars from Saturn, Saab
Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles and HUMMER Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles, were
40,474 units, down 10.6 percent from last February. Total year-to-date
certified GM sales are 80,001 units, down 6 percent from the same period last
year.
GM Certified Used Vehicles, the industry's top-selling manufacturer-
certified used brand, posted 35,461 sales, down nearly 9 percent from last
February, but up 3 percent from January 2006. Year-to-date sales for GM
Certified Used Vehicles are 69,954 units, down 4.5 percent from the same
period in 2005.
Cadillac Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles posted 3,097 sales in February, down
nearly 2 percent from last year. Used Cars from Saturn sold 1,412 units, down
47 percent. Saab Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles sold 504 units, down 2.5
percent. In its second month of operation, HUMMER Certified Pre-Owned sold 36
units.
'While February was a challenging month for all certified GM brands, GM
Certified Used Vehicles, the industry's top-selling certified brand, increased
sales by 3 percent from January and continues to set the pace for all
manufacturers in the category,' LaNeve said.

factors include, among others, the following: changes in economic conditions,

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.
