Chevrolet Korea sales fell again in July, with eight of the brand’s nine models offered in that market posting decreases in sales volume. The Chevrolet Equinox was the only exception to that turn of events, as it was the only Bow Tie model to see sales grow in July. Chevy’s compact SUV has registered a significant increase in year-to-date deliveries, but that’s mostly a result of July 2018 being the second month of Equinox sales in the South Korean market.
Despite the negative trend in Chevrolet Korea sales, it is worth noting that the 6,754 units sold in July represent the highest monthly sales figure that the brand has seen thus far in 2019 in the market. July also saw the brand’s two South Korean best-sellers – the Chevrolet Spark and Chevrolet Malibu – post monthly sales records thus far this year, with 3,304 and 1,284 deliveries, respectively.
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.

Hopefully GM won't pull out of Korea, I think the lower sales are due to the labor dispute..
Can GM actually make money with such tiny sales even in good times.
Korea is in a trade war with Japan. It’s really hurting their semiconductor industry. Which is their #1 export. It’s also making it really cheap to export vehicles from Korea.
