The GM Authority Take

The 17 percent drop in Chevrolet Brazil sales during March 2022 deepens the negative performance that the brand has been experiencing in the largest country in South America, where it has already accumulated ten consecutive months of sales volume contractions. However, Chevrolet’s rate of decline during March slowed compared to that seen in previous months, making last month’s 19,208 deliveries a healthy increase from February’s 17,432 deliveries.

As such, most of the models that the Bow Tie brand offers in Brazil marked significant double-digit drops in sales volume in March 2022. This circumstance applies to its the two best-selling models in the local market: Chevy Onix and Tracker.

The Onix, Chevy’s popular subcompact car range, continues to face supply problems that prevent it from reaching optimal supply levels. Despite this, the Onix remained the best-selling vehicle in the country during the month. By contrast, the Chevy Cruze, S10 and Spin made significant year-over-year gains, bucking the red trend of other nameplates.

  2. I’m very, very disappointed with GM, they are rendered only dark colors. This is my third High Country, one blue and the last two cherry red. My saleswoman at Nicol Auto in La Sarre Québec told me that GM no longer made Cherry Gray and Red and also no Micro Ship (puse). So I said NO THANK YOU, I don’t want any other color than Cherry Red and I kept my Sylverado Hihg Country 2018, 6.2 L which I like BUT. Since 2011 I’ve been changing my trucks every three years but this time it’s a BIG NO. I looked at you at Ford and Dodge RAM for my Cherry Red color. To bad so sad GM, you will lose a good customer, very very disappointed with you other GM… You can look in your system and you will see that I am not a liar… I would like to have a followup on my comment and I ask you to answer me ASAP…

    Why did GM make you their truck model like the Chevy Nova Montana and Siera truck in Brazil… Is it cheaper to make them in this country’s and once in the USA / Canada you are going to charge us consumers more… And for the 2022 GMC Sierra Denali Ultimate’s Paldao Wood (wood from a Asia Tree), exterior Trim such as Vader Chrome, 22-inch Whells and GM’s CarbonPro composite Cargo Box, is flown into U.S. from Southeast Asia, pricing starts at $81,790.00 U.S.,. What a bad GM administration… You should give the work to our employers in our two countries USA and Canada, you are not helping our GM economies… You are incompetent…

    I am not happy about you GM, you are very bad… 🙁
