Chevrolet continues to deliver record global sales
Chevrolet sold nearly 1.3 million vehicles worldwide in the second quarter of 2012, a 2.3 per cent increase over last year?s record-setting second quarter, marking the best quarter ever for the brand, and the seventh consecutive quarter of record-breaking sales.
?Seven consecutive quarters of record sales is solid proof that Chevrolet is delivering the high quality products, with easy-to-use technologies and expressive designs that people around the world are demanding,? said Chris Perry, Chevrolet vice president of global marketing. ?With even more great new products on the way, we look forward to a strong second half of 2012.?
The Cruze continues to be the best-selling Chevrolet nameplate around the world with more than 350 000 sold so far this year and more than 1.65 million sold since the car was launched. Sales of the recently launched 2012 Aveo/ Sonic small car and 2013 Malibu mid-size sedan are rising as more vehicles become available in dealer showrooms around the world.
Chevrolet posted significant sales increases over the second quarter of last year in four of its top five markets including the USA, China, Brazil, Russia and Mexico.
Chevrolet Europe sold 61 865 vehicles for the second quarter in Western and Central Europe, a 13.6 per cent increase in an industry that continues to struggle and is down 6.9 per cent.
The brand achieved its best-ever volume in Western and Central Europe in the first half of 2012 with more than 117,500 vehicles sold ? led by Aveo sales of more than 34 000, a 10.9 percent increase over same period last year.
Chevrolet is in the midst of launching the Spark mini-car and Malibu in the United States; the Trailblazer midsize SUV and Colorado mid-size truck in Thailand and other markets; the Spin multi-purpose vehicle in Brazil and the Cruze station wagon in Europe.
The brand will also begin launching the allnew Trax small sportutility vehicle around the world in the fourth quarter. Chevrolet, traditionally an American brand, today records more than 60 per cent of its sales outside the U.S. market.
