Fuel-Efficient Vehicles Propel General Motors April

U.S. Sales Increase of 27 Percent

DETROIT – General Motors dealers in the United States reported 232,538 total sales in April, a 27-percent increase versus April a year ago. Solid gains by GM’s lineup of fuel-efficient passenger cars and crossovers powered the gains, led by the best sales month for the Chevrolet Cruze and record sales for the Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain compact crossovers.

Retail sales, those to individual customers, rose 25 percent versus last April with cars and crossovers up 49 percent and 28 percent, respectively. Retail sales for the Cruze were 180 percent higher than the Chevrolet Cobalt it replaced. The Equinox and Terrain also posted retail sales records, up 53 and 61 percent respectively.

With gasoline averaging almost $4 per gallon, consumers are beginning to trade in larger vehicles for smaller, more fuel efficient ones.

“Recently, rising fuel prices have led many to re-think their vehicle choice,” said Don Johnson, vice president, U.S. Sales Operations. “Because of the investments we’ve made in fuel-efficiency and global product architectures, the company is well positioned to meet these needs.”

During the first quarter of 2011, the company’s retail share of the small, compact and compact crossover segments improved by an estimated 3.4 full share points, compared to the first quarter of 2010. Much of this improvement is due to improved availability of the popular Equinox and Terrain and the launch of the all-new Cruze.

Compared to March, retail sales rose 4 percent though incentive spending decreased more than 10 percent, Johnson said.

April deliveries to commercial accounts rose 21 percent – the 13^th consecutive month of commercial sales gains.

GM’s Newest Vehicles Retail Sales Soar 76 Percent in April

Combined retail sales for vehicles launched since June 2009 – Chevrolet Equinox, Silverado HD, Cruze, Camaro Convertible and Volt; Buick LaCrosse and Regal; GMC Sierra HD and Terrain; and Cadillac SRX, CTS Wagon and CTS Coupe – jumped 76 percent during April and are up 76 percent for the year through April.

Passenger Cars

Total sales of GM passenger cars improved 50 percent during April, led by the sale of 25,160 Cruzes and 24,701 Chevrolet Malibus. Retail sales of GM passenger cars climbed 49 percent for the month. The Cruze and Chevrolet Camaro Convertible recorded their highest retail sales since launch. For the year-to-date, retail sales of GM’s passenger cars were up 49 percent, also led by the Cruze, up 195 percent for the year compared to the Chevrolet Cobalt.

Crossovers

The Chevrolet, GMC and Cadillac brands each set April total and retail sales records for crossover sales, driven by a 49-percent increase in combined retail sales by the Equinox, Terrain and SRX. The three also set individual April records for retail sales. For the year-to-date, retail sales of GM’s industry-leading crossovers were up 29 percent.

Pickups

Total combined sales of Chevrolet Silverado and Avalanche, and GMC Sierra increased 2 percent; with retail sales down 2 percent versus a year ago. For the year-to-date, retail sales for GM’s full-size pickups are up 26 percent, while total sales of 172,070 units represent a 22-percent increase.

Month-end dealer inventory in the United States stood at about 577,000 units, up about 3,000 units compared to March and about 149,000 higher than April 2010.

Cars, Crossovers Drive Chevy April Sales up 25 Percent

Retail sales climb 25 percent, driven by demand for Cruze, Equinox and Malibu

DETROIT – With the price of gasoline above $4 a gallon in many parts of the United States, more customers are choosing Chevrolet’s fuel efficient cars and crossovers.

In April, Chevrolet sold a total of 169,794 vehicles, for a 25 percent increase in both total and retail sales over the same month a year ago. Driven by consumer demand for fuel efficiency, nearly 40 percent of brand’s total sales in April were from three fuel-efficient vehicles: the Chevrolet Cruze, Malibu, and Equinox.

“Our lineup of gas-friendly vehicles like Cruze, Malibu, and Equinox, Chevrolet offer drivers more miles per gallon without sacrificing performance, style or value,” said Alan Batey, U.S. vice president, Chevrolet Sales and Service. “Clearly, that is resonating with car buyers today.”

Fuel economy is especially important for Californian drivers, according to Joe Herold, president of Quality Chevrolet in Escondido, Calif.:

“With gas as high as $4.50 a gallon in parts of California, the number of miles per gallon is just as important as the monthly payment for many shoppers,” Herold said. “That demand for fuel economy has made the Cruze one of our most popular models – we sold five times more Cruzes in April than we did the Chevrolet Cobalts last year.”

Nationally, Chevrolet sold a record 25,160 Cruze compact cars in April – the most compact cars Chevrolet has sold since May of 2008. In April, retail sales – those to individual customers – were nearly three times higher than Cobalt a year ago.

The four-cylinder Cruze offers hybrid-like fuel economy – up to 42 mpg highway – without the hybrid price. The Cruze is also attracting customers who want both fuel economy and upscale features: For 2011, nearly one in four Cruze buyers chose a model equipped with heated, leather seats.

In April, Chevrolet sold a total of 24,701 Malibu midsize cars – up 49 percent from a year ago. Malibu retail sales are up 8 percent for April and 4 percent for the year compared with 2010 – which was the best year for Malibu retail sales since 2000.

With the standard 2.4L Ecotec four-cylinder engine and six-speed automatic, the Malibu delivers 33 mpg on the highway. That fuel efficiency helped Malibu become the only midsize car to be named a “Best Buy” by Consumers Digest three years in a row.

In April, Chevrolet sold a total of 17,067 Equinox – up 42 percent from a year ago, and the best April sales ever for the compact crossover.

Equipped with the standard 2.4L four-cylinder Ecotec engine and six-speed automatic, the front-wheel-drive Equinox delivers 32 mpg highway, better than the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4 and the Ford Escape Hybrid. Equinox was named the Best in Class compact SUV in Auto Pacific’s 2010 Ideal Vehicle Awards.

Buick Retail Sales Flourish in April, Up 35 Percent

Demand for fuel-efficient vehicles propel Buick’s 19^th straight month of sales gains

DETROIT – Buick achieved its 19^th consecutive month of retail sales gains in April, growing 35 percent year over year with total sales up 51 percent. The brand’s sales to individual customers also have increased 45 percent and its total sales are up 43 percent, calendar year to date.

“Luxury car and crossover shoppers as well as our dealers have made Buick the fastest-growing major automotive brand in the United States,” said Brian Sweeney, U.S. vice president of Buick & GMC Sales and Service. “With more new models coming to our showrooms this year, we expect Buick’s momentum to continue.”

Buick also is the fastest-growing brand among African-Americans, according to a recent Polk report. Buick increased annual registrations among African-American car buyers by more than 72 percent in 2010 – nearly 20 percentage points higher than its nearest competitor.

Interest in Buick is on the rise among consumers in general. At Main Street in Motion, a touring test-drive event that pits Buick against other brands, exit polls revealed that public opinion of Buick improved by 125 percent and purchase consideration improved by 65 percent.

Retail sales of LaCrosse increased 5 percent in April, with total sales up 8 percent. The full-size sedan recently received a five-star overall safety rating in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s New Car Assessment Program. LaCrosse sales are expected to grow even more this summer with the introduction of the 2012 LaCrosse with eAssist™, which is expected to deliver class-leading highway fuel economy of 37 mpg.

With crossovers gaining in popularity, Enclave momentum continued to grow in April with retail sales up 6 percent and total sales up 14 percent, year over year. One reason for the Enclave’s sales success is its fuel economy, 24 mpg highway (2WD), which is better than any eight-passenger crossover.

Enclave, a four-time winner of Consumer Digest’s Best Buy award, has the highest conquest rate of any Buick, with 48 percent coming from non-GM brands. Approximately 40 percent of all Buick buyers come from non-GM brands and 18 percent come from imports.

In April, Buick markets with year-over-year increases included Miami, Houston and Boston.

“It’s pretty amazing,” said Mark Nazaradi, general manager of Williamson Buick Cadillac GMC in the Miami area. “Just about every Buick buyer we see is trading in a Lexus, BMW or other import brand.”

One year after its launch, demand for Regal continued to accelerate in April, with retail sales up 19 percent and total sales up 24 percent month over month. The boost reflects increased availability of the all-new Regal CXL Turbo, which accounted for 32 percent of the sport sedan’s retail sales in April. The turbo’s 2.0-liter direct-injection four-cylinder engine delivers better horsepower and torque than the Acura TSX, and with its manual six-speed transmission, it also delivers better fuel economy with an EPA-rated 32 mpg highway.

The Regal lineup will grow in the second half of the year with the introduction of the high- performance 2012 Regal GS and fuel efficient 2012 Regal eAssist.

In April, GMC markets with significant year-over-year increases included New York, Phoenix and Chicago.

“Fuel efficiency is definitely helping to drive sales of Acadia and Terrain,” said Henry Brown, a GMC dealer in the Phoenix metropolitan area. “At the same time we’re seeing strong interest in our Denali models. People have been fiscally conservative the last couple of years and are ready to get into a nicer vehicle. Denali gives them the step up they’ve been wanting.”

Denali is a core brand for GMC, providing a unique blend of Professional Grade capability along with exclusive styling and premium content. Demand for Denali has more than doubled so far this year, contributing to the 19-month string of GMC sales increases.

“For many of our customers, Denali is a brand of its own. There is nothing else like it on the market,” Brown said. “Denali gives them the comforts of a passenger car in a professional grade truck. It’s a winning combination.”
