DETROIT, Aug. 2 -- General Motors' dealers in the United States sold
410,332 new cars and trucks in July, the company's best retail and
second-best monthly sales performance year-to-date.
"July was our best retail month of 2006, with our strong performance led
by launch vehicles such as the Pontiac Torrent and G6, Saturn Sky, Chevrolet
Cobalt and Impala and Buick Lucerne," said Mark LaNeve, General Motors North
America vice president, Vehicle Sales, Service and Marketing. "Importantly,
our performance in June and July shows we're gaining substantial sales
momentum and stabilizing market share. We remain optimistic moving into the
launches of the Saturn Aura, fuel-efficient Vue Green Line hybrid and Outlook
crossover, GMC Acadia crossover, the all-new Chevrolet Silverado pickup and
Aveo economy car, and the exciting new GMC Sierra full-size pickup."
Average monthly sales of all GM launch vehicles in June and July were up
67 percent compared with the average monthly sales in the January through May
2006 period.
Chevrolet continues its sales supremacy with 244,080 vehicles sold,
propelled by an 18.2 percent increase in Chevrolet car sales compared to last
year. Chevrolet sold 81,430 cars in July 2006, compared with 71,634 in July
2005, and had its best selling month since "Keep America Rolling" in October
2001.
Chevrolet had its best retail performance of the year and Cobalt had its
best retail sales month since launch. Of note, retail passenger car sales are
up versus a strong July last year, demonstrating GM can compete in all product
categories.
Pontiac retail sales for the month showed a 15.9 percent increase compared
with July 2005, with total sales of 40,933. Solstice continues to be one of
the hottest cars in the country with a 14 day average turn time. G6 had its
best selling month since introduction and the G6 convertible is red-hot with
an 11 day average turn time. The GTO saw a 65.1 percent increase in sales
compared with a year ago and set a July sales record. The Torrent crossover
also achieved an all-time sales record, with 4,830 vehicles sold in July.
Buick Lucerne, Pontiac G6, Chevy Malibu and Impala drove the mid-car
category to its highest July sales level since 2004. Buick Lucerne set an all-
time retail sales record with 9,145 vehicles delivered in July and Pontiac G6
also set an all-time sales record, up 80.5 percent. Chevrolet Malibu is up
25.2 percent, while Impala had its best retail sales month since August 2003
with sales up 59.6 percent.
Other GM divisions posted solid results as HUMMER H3 showed a 24.1 percent
increase compared with July 2005 and was up 36.6 percent compared to June
2006. HUMMER had its best sales month of the year with 6,991 deliveries. CYTD
HUMMER sales of 39,786 vehicles are up 60.1 percent compared with the same
seven months one year ago. Saturn car sales are up compared with July 2005,
with 64,691 vehicles delivered, and the Sky had a strong start with 860
vehicles sold in July. Buick delivered 23,609 vehicles in the month, with
Lucerne achieving its best retail sales month since launch and LaCrosse having
its best retail sales month since December 2005.
Chevrolet HHR, Equinox, Saturn Vue and Pontiac Torrent pushed total small
utility sales up 33.2 percent compared with a year ago, and up more than 49
percent in the first seven months of the year compared to the same period a
year ago. HHR had its best retail sales month since launch, and set an all-
time total sales record with 14,838 vehicles delivered, up 249.6 percent
compared with July 2005, and CYTD deliveries of 66,828 vehicles. Chevrolet
Equinox had its best retail sales month of the year.
On the truck side of the market, full-size pickup trucks had their
strongest sales month of the year with 66,583 Chevy Silverado and 22,947 GMC
Sierra trucks sold. GMC had its best retail sales month of the year, with
48,085 vehicles delivered, and the GMC Canyon had its best retail month of the
year, delivering 2,717 trucks. GM sold 4,455 all-new 2007 Chevy Avalanche,
12,950 Tahoe, 6,269 Suburban, 6,022 GMC Yukon, and 3,385 Yukon XL vehicles in
July. GM's luxury utilities posted solid sales results in July, with the all-
new 2007 Cadillac Escalade selling 2,105 vehicles; 2007 Escalade ESV selling
1,120 vehicles; and Cadillac SRX delivering 1,822 vehicles. July was the best
sales month of the year for large utilities (including large luxury) with
37,455 vehicles sold.
GM sports cars also posted solid July sales results, with a 100.1 percent
improvement compared with year-ago levels. Corvette sales were up 55.2
percent, with 2,794 vehicles delivered. Pontiac Solstice (1,342 vehicles) and
Saturn Sky (860 vehicles) are continuing their brisk sales pace.
Despite total sales being down 19.5 percent compared with July 2005,
LaNeve was very encouraged by strong June and July sales results, led by GM's
launch vehicle and passenger car performance. "Our 'Go To Market' strategy of
offering industry-leading products and value, and doing the right thing for
the customer, is showing positive results."
Certified Used Vehicles
July sales for all certified GM brands, including GM Certified Used
Vehicles, Cadillac Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles, Saturn Certified Pre-Owned
Vehicles, Saab Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles and HUMMER Certified Pre-Owned
Vehicles, were 39,282 units, down 22 percent from last July. Total year-to-
date certified GM sales are 302,879 units, down 1 percent from the same period
last year.
GM Certified Used Vehicles, the industry's top-selling certified pre-owned
brand, posted 33,404 sales in July, down 22 percent from July 2005. Year-to-
date sales for GM Certified Used Vehicles are 262,082 units, up 1.2 percent.
Cadillac Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles posted 3,151 sales in July, down 12
percent from last July. Saturn Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles sold 1,798 units,
down 41 percent. Saab Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles sold 863 units, up 7
percent. In its seventh month of operation, HUMMER Certified Pre-Owned sold
66 units.
"July was a challenging month, with sales for all certified GM brands down
compared to our record performance last July, when GM set a monthly category
sales record," said LaNeve. "GM Certified Used Vehicles, the industry's top-
selling certified brand, continues to lead all manufacturers in the category,
with sales year-to-date up more than 1 percent from the same period in 2005.
A strong month on the new-vehicle side and the recent 72-Hour Sale promotion
generated large volumes of certified-eligible vehicles, and we look forward to
robust sales in coming months."
