The GM Authority Take
Chevy Low Cab Forward sales during the second quarter saw a healthy increase on a year-over-year basis, following a similarly-healthy Q1 2020 sales performance, when the LCF saw 867 deliveries for a 55 percent growth rate.
The Q2 2020 results allowed GM to add 1,537 deliveries to its bottom line for the quarter during a time when auto sales were ravaged by the COVID-19 pandemic. In fact, Low Cab Forward sales figures posted during the quarter buck the downward trend experienced by the auto industry during the same timeframe. In fact, it’s highly probably that Low Cab Forward sales volume would have been even higher had it not been for the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated commercial, economic and lifestyle disruptions brought about by the virus.
The Chevrolet Low Cab Forward (LCF) are medium-duty trucks that are the result of a partnership between GM and Isuzu Motors announced in June 2015. The trucks were developed and are built by Isuzu, with GM providing some components, notably the gasoline engine.
The LCF is offered as a 3500, 4500, 5500, or 6500 model, and is available with the GM 6.0L L96 Vortec gasoline engine (for 2017-2020 models) or the 6.6L L8T V8 (for the 2021 and newer model year), as well as one of two Isuzu diesel engines – a 3.0-liter four-cylinder or a 5.2-liter four-cylinder. Chevrolet LCF 3500, 4500, and 5500 models are a rebadged Isuzu N-Series, while the 6500XD is a rebadged Isuzu F-Series.
The Low Cab Forward trucks are an integral part of Chevy’s strategy to deliver a “complete solution” for commercial fleet customers, ranging from light-duty midsize pickups (Colorado) and light-duty full-size pickups (Silverado 1500) to full-size heavy-duty pickups (Silverado HD) and medium-duty chassis cabs (Silverado MD). The “complete solution” approach is vital as it keeps fleet customers within the Chevrolet family, rather than purchasing vehicle from and servicing them at disparate brands. In addition, the Low Cab Forward models provide incremental sales volume and revenue for GM, without significant investment, effort or risk.
