SHANGHAI – General Motors and its joint ventures delivered more than 771,400 vehicles in China in the third quarter, an increase of 12% on a year-over-year basis.
GM brands maintained robust growth momentum as the vehicle market continued to recover from the COVID-19 impact. GM’s luxury vehicles, midsize/large SUVs and MPVs, led by the Cadillac XT5 and the Buick Envision and GL8 families, posted a strong performance in particular, spearheading the overall recovery.
Buick deliveries in the third quarter grew 26% from a year earlier to over 250,000 units. Sales of the GL8 family – the long-standing leader in China’s MPV segment – increased 17% year on year to more than 52,000 units. In addition, the Envision family had deliveries of over 34,000 units, as sales surged 48%. The introduction of the all-new Envision S and Envision S Avenir in July strengthened the brand’s SUV lineup in China.
Cadillac deliveries topped 65,000 units, an increase of 28% from a year earlier. Its SUV portfolio encompassing the XT4, XT5 and XT6 posted steady growth, with collective sales of more than 40,000 units. In July, Cadillac expanded its application of Super Cruise, the industry’s leading intelligent driving assistance technology, in its domestic lineup.
Chevrolet had deliveries of more than 77,000 vehicles. It continued to enhance its product mix by introducing the refreshed Equinox SUV and adding a five-seat variant to the Blazer SUV.
