General Motors reports 7% sales growth in second quarter

Investing.com -- General Motors (NYSE:GM) announced a 7% increase in U.S. sales for the second quarter, with overall sales reaching 746,588 units during the three-month period ending in June.

The automaker reported a 12% sales increase for the first half of 2025, outpacing the estimated 4% growth for the total auto industry. GM led the U.S. automotive industry in both total and retail sales during the first six months of the year.

"The investments we have made in our crossovers, SUVs, and pickups – both gas and electric – along with great execution by our employees, suppliers and dealers, have made GM the engine of growth for the U.S. industry this year," said Duncan Aldred, GM senior VP and president of North America.

The company achieved record year-to-date sales of crossovers, driven by all-new or redesigned models including the Chevrolet Trax, Traverse, and Equinox, GMC Acadia and Terrain, and Buick Envista and Encore GX. Buick, which exclusively sells crossovers, posted the largest first-half sales increase among mainstream brands, up 29%.

Chevrolet recorded its best first-half sales since 2019, increasing 9% with record first-half sales of its crossover lineup. The Equinox model achieved its best-ever sales. GMC also had its best-ever start to the year, including record Sierra deliveries.
