Chevrolet Trailblazer Awaiting Shipment

[Asia Economy Reporter Choi Dae-yeol] Korea GM announced on the 1st that it sold 18,208 units domestically and internationally last month. This is a 9.6% increase compared to the same period last year.

3,590 units were sold domestically. This is a 24.3% decrease compared to the same period last year and a 12.8% decrease compared to the previous month. Although customer deliveries of the Bolt EV and Bolt EUV have begun in earnest, the significant decrease in sales of the SUV Trailblazer, which accounts for a large portion, had a major impact. The cumulative domestic sales from the beginning of this year to last month totaled 25,258 units, which is 41.0% less than last year.

Exports increased by 23.1% during the same period, reaching 14,618 units. Along with the Buick Encore GX, which shares the same platform as the Trailblazer, 8,572 units were exported. The Chevrolet Spark was also exported with 2,188 units, a 26.5% increase during the same period. The cumulative export volume was 141,772 units, a 4.1% decrease compared to the same period. The combined cumulative sales of domestic and export units totaled 167,030 units, a 12.4% decrease compared to the previous year.

Carlos Minert, Vice President of Korea GM, said, "While customer delivery delays continue across the industry, Chevrolet has recently significantly shortened the delivery times for most of its brand vehicles," adding, "Based on a broad product portfolio, we will continue the upward momentum that has continued since the second half of the year, including exports."
