The decline in Chevrolet Canada sales continued in the second quarter of 2019, with the results lining up with the overall performance of the Canadian auto market, which has seen 16 consecutive months of declining auto sales through the first half of 2019. Most Chevrolet models saw a decline in second-quarter 2019 sales on a year-over-year basis, including key models such as the Chevrolet Silverado and Chevrolet Equinox, which are GM’s best-selling nameplates in the country.
Meanwhile, some Chevrolet models managed to post record sales figures during the second quarter, including the Bolt EV, which had its best second quarter, with sales up 57.5 percent. The small battery-electric model is reaping the benefits of Canadian federal incentives for EVs. In a similar fashion, the Spark also saw its best second quarter in its history, with a growth rate of nine percent.
At a time of year when luxury car ATP usually rises.
Sales decreased 5.6 percent to 16,670 units during the first ten months of 2024.
Specifically critical minerals supply chain development.
Scheduled for a Spring 2025 launch.

Killing the Cruze puts a huge hole in the GM lineup. The Cruze was selling in pretty decent numbers as well.
Killing the Cruze says a lot about GM's board of directors when they say 140,000 units sold in a year doesn't justify building it.
Hyundai Kia is the new GM of Canada. They are even doing very better than the Pontiac days .
GM just need a competent compact to counter-act this (yes an CT4 based Chevy). OTOH GM is selling like gangbusters in US, Lat/A and China, smaller regions (Can, Aus, etc) don't count like they did in the past.
Guestt,
GM sales are down in every market around the world and nonexistent in the super lucrative European market because they bailed.
The poorly executed dead end so called trade war is pushing the Nationalist Chinese away from American vehicles. That's called the Trump effect.
So even when Trump eventually leave office GM can't plan for the future?.
Canada is a shrinking market and Europe is shut-out like Japan, the Clinton's could have been in office now and the same things happen. China eventually will level-out and not only Lat/Am is expanding but I'd expect expansion in east Asia in the future.
This is not the old GM heartbeat of America.
People are tied of the GM LLC bullshit. Obscenely overpaid executives.
GM moving jobs to Mexico Korea and china. Stock buybacks instead of reinvestments.
When GM cuts ties with America. Customers cuts ties with GM.
GM Canada sales have been going down and will continue to go down because GM is closing there number one plant in Oshawa. This doesn't sit well with the Canadian public after the government gave GM $12 billion in loans in 2009, of which more than $2 billion still hasn't been repaid.
