GM Reports January Sales of 299,050, Down 2 Percent Record Sport Utility Sales Up 27 Percent GMC Continues Strong Sales Performance With Another Monthly Record DETROIT, Feb. 4 -- General Motors dealers sold 299,050 new cars and trucks in January, down 2 percent compared to January 2003. GM's truck sales (174,597) were up 13 percent. Car sales (124,453) were down 17 percent. 'January sales results were below expectations. While we had good results in some divisions with sales increases at Chevrolet, GMC and Cadillac, a new industry record in sport utility sales and strong truck sales overall, car sales and sales in certain regions were disappointing,' said John Smith, group vice president of GM North America Vehicle Sales, Service and Marketing. 'However, we're beginning our launch of 29 new vehicles this year, including the Chevrolet Equinox, Cadillac STS, Saturn ION Coupe Redline and Pontiac G6, and we expect these vehicles to further build on the momentum we achieved during the second half of 2003.'

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 II-18) 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.
