The GM Authority Take

GM Korea sales increased in a healthy manner in July, which represents the second consecutive month that the company has managed to increase its sals volume in the market. The positive result was driven by the Chevrolet brand that, despite the COVID-19 pandemic, managed to increase sales on an annual basis thanks to overwhelmingly solid performance of the all-new Chevrolet Trailblazer. The new crossover was once again GM’s best-selling model in the Asian country.

Meanwhile, the Cadillac brand suffered a significant decline in sales in July, caused by significant declines experienced by the XT5, Escalade and the discontinued CTS. Despite this, it is important to highlight the substantial 79 percent increase in sales of the CT6, which has regained its position as the best-selling Cadillac model in the South Korean market. Also notable are the 30 deliveries of the new Cadillac XT6, which was equal to the sales performance of its younger brother – the XT5.
