Interim Results
GM Reports Best December Sales Since 1979
GM sales up 36 percent to 473,663 - Widening GM's
Calendar Year Sales Leadership
Truck Sales Set All-Time Industry Record - Up 6 Percent For The Year
GM Gains Market Share For Second Consecutive Year, First Time Since 1976
DETROIT, Jan. 3 -- General Motors Corp. dealers sold 473,663
new cars and trucks in December in the United States, a 36 percent increase
versus December 2001. For the calendar year, GM dealers delivered 4,858,705
new vehicles, down a modest 1 percent from 2001. GM's overall truck sales
(2,789,500) and overall SUV sales (1,239,074) set all-time industry records.
'Our December results were outstanding, as was our overall performance for
the calendar year,' said John Smith, group vice president of North America
Vehicle Sales, Service and Marketing. 'GM had an excellent year in 2002 on
all fronts ... exciting new products, quality and productivity improvements --
all leading to market share gains and an increased customer base. We set all-
time industry records for truck and SUV sales, and we continued the strong
sales pace we have established with our new vehicle introductions for
Cadillac, Saturn and HUMMER.'
GM truck performance was led by calendar year sales records for Chevrolet
trucks, GMC trucks, Cadillac trucks and HUMMER. Cadillac sales improved 16
percent for the year on the strength of the CTS, Escalade and Escalade EXT.
Saturn increased 7 percent in large part due to the VUE, which continues to
gain momentum in the small utility segment. The HUMMER H2 is one of the
hottest selling vehicles in the country and recently won the Detroit News
'Truck of the Year' award.
GM Truck Sales
For December, GM truck sales (301,528) were up 36 percent. December
utility vehicle sales were an all-time monthly record for GM (139,749) and
were up 56 percent as GM became the first manufacturer ever to top 1.2 million
SUV sales in a calendar year. GM's midsize utility sales for the month were
57,967, an increase of 50 percent. GM's December sales of full-size utility
vehicles (69,630 units) were up 47 percent from year-ago levels. GM also
posted strong full-size pickup sales in December (108,226), an increase of 21
percent.
GM Car Sales
For December, GM had very strong car sales (172,135), increasing 37
percent overall. The Buick LeSabre (up 105 percent), the new Saab 9-3 (up 88
percent), Chevrolet Corvette (up 80 percent), Chevrolet Malibu (up 74
percent), Chevrolet Impala (up 50 percent), and the Cadillac DeVille (up 24
percent) all had substantial gains over last December. The new Cadillac CTS
posted another healthy sales month of 4,623 units and the new Pontiac Vibe had
another solid month, selling 5,003 units.
Certified Used Cars
GM's industry-leading certified used car program sold approximately 30,149
total certified used vehicles in December, including the Cadillac, Saturn and
Saab certified brands. The GM Certified Used Vehicle brand posted strong
sales once again, selling 24,559 units. 'For the year, we achieved more than
385,000 sales, a phenomenal effort by GM dealers, GMAC and the entire VSSM
organization,' Smith said. 'Certified used vehicle sales exceeded our
expectations and we expect to continue strong growth in 2003.'

release and related comments by General Motors management, our use of the
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.
