GM European Union Sales Grow 6.1 Percent To 76,109 Units In April 2016

Sales of General Motors vehicles in the European Union grew 6.1 percent to 76,109 units. Despite the increase, The General — represented by its Opel and Vauxhall brands — saw an ever so slight decrease in market share of 0.1 percent to 6.4 percent, mostly as a result of the discontinuation of the Chevrolet brand in the region.
