The GM Authority Take
The notable drop in Chevrolet Chile sales in January represents the brand’s fourth consecutive contraction in the South American country, where it has been in the red since October 2022 due to low inventory of several of its most popular models. In fact, Chevrolet began the 2023 calendar year falling to second place among Chile’s best-selling auto, surpassed once agin by Toyota, which sold 2,270 vehicles.
Chevy Groove
In particular, the decrease in Chevrolet Chile sales last month was the result of notable declines in the sales volumes of the Chevy Sail, Tracker and Captiva. These three models saw outstanding sales in January 2022, but together suffered a significant contraction of more than 1,000 units in January, moving the brand into the red as a whole. It should be noted that the current Sail went from being one of the best-selling vehicles in Chile to one of Chevrolet’s least popular, as a result of being in the final part of its commercial cycle.
By contrast, the Chevy Groove posted a healthy increase, positioning it as the the brand’s best-selling nameplate during the month with 594 deliveries. It’s also worth highlighting the outstanding performance of the Chevy Silverado, which has now accumulated four consecutive months as the best-selling full-size pickup in Chile after the local launch of the refreshed model.
