470 units… great sales to start the winter months with.
Buick is on target to reach their projected first year sales with the Cascada of between 6-7000 units.
I believe that is all they were planning on exporting from Poland.
I didn’t question their sales projection. You can sell 6,000 of any car by zero rating them. Chrysler sold a half-million Dodge Darts and 200’s… they just had to sell them at-cost. At one point Chrysler was paying dealers to order them in order to meet dealer cliff targets.
My point was more to the notion that GM can’t sell performance cars, often citing low sales. GM did all that validation and adaptation work for a car selling 470 units a month. I don’t want to hear from a GM manager the next time a VXR/OPC/OpelGT is born… that it can’t come here because of low sales projections.
Make this fully electric, update to Apple Carplay standards, and they’ll sell a LOT of these in California
It would need more than that to be successful but I see your point.
The Cascada was out of date when it got here. The exterior design looks fine but the interior is poorly thought out by N.A. standards and ride and handling leaves a lot to be desired.
Buick’s Cascada doesn’t really fit the personality that the Buick is attempting to project and competes with the Chevrolet Camaro convertible; an injection of horsepower or new front fascia might help.
The personality Buick is attempting is “we’re no longer boring”. This fits fine.
I am not sure that a Camaro customer is the target audience for this car.
It is FWD and way down on the performance chart to really be considered a competitor.
Buick is again smartly going after ‘white space’ segments. Meaning areas where there is little existing competition or creating a segment. They did it most recently with the Buick Encore which is doing great. Now there is a lot more models in that space such as the HR-V, Renegade and CX-3.
I do not think the compact premium convertible space is going to take off but Buick essentially has no competition in it for now.
I find the exterior design fugly and weird.
I wonder what the profit threshold is for 5700 sales, minus Super Bowl media, production costs, Odell Beckham, Jr and the starlet? That was a cool $7.5 mil easy, for something that ran once?? And the Kimmy Schmidt on-line series. Car looks ok from the outside – the inside is full of Polish shortcuts. I’d be surprised if they’d reached break-even by now.
Poland has nothing to do with the shortcuts. They do final assembly only. Design and engineering is Opel/GM’s doing.
Also break-even is calculated based on and amortized over the expected product lifespan.
Costs associated with design, production, distribution, marketing, etc. are not expected to be recouped in the first year.
Nick the customer for any color than white, and keep it heavy, underpowered, and sluggish. That will bring in customers in droves.
New GM, same as the old GM.
