The GM Authority Take
GM Mexico sales declined again in August, representing the sixth consecutive month that the automaker’s sales have decreased in the Latin country. This trend is the result of the negative impact brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic on both, the supply as well as demand of automobiles. Despite the drop, last month’s cumulative result represents an improvement over July. Additionally, GMC posted a significant increase year-over-year, representing the first time in the last six months that a GM brand has been in the green in Mexico.
As in each of the last several months, the biggest declines in GM Mexico sales volume in August were associated with the company’s two best-sellers in the country – the Chevrolet Aveo and Beat. Meanwhile, the GMC Sierra saw excellent performance, with sales growing 57 percent. It was joined by healthy sales gains by the Terrain and Acadia crossovers.
In addition, the Chevrolet Onix once again exceeded the 2,000 units sold mark, while the all-new Chevrolet Tracker registered its first 338 deliveries in the Mexican market in August, with sales having officially started during the last week of the month.
