The GM Authority Take
GM Mexico sales declined significantly during the month of August, with the results marking the fifth consecutive month of double-digit declines in the country. The negative trend in the company’s figures is due to the ongoing decline in the demand for automobiles in the Mexican market, where the automotive industry is seeing 29 consecutive months of decreasing sales.
The four GM brands reported lower sales year-over-year in Mexico, with GMC and Chevrolet being affected the most by falling 20 and 19 percent, respectively. Naturally, this massive decrease in sales is reflected in the individual behavior of the models during the past month.
However, a few models managed to post increases in sales volumes, including the Chevrolet Beat, Silverado-Cheyenne, the Cadillac Escalade, the Buick Encore as well as the GMC Sierra and Yukon.=
