GM Korea sold a total of 48,134 units in June on a finished vehicle basis, marking a 6.6% increase compared to the same month last year. This marks the fifth consecutive month this year — following January, March, April, and May — that monthly sales exceeded 40,000 units. However, the domestic market remains without a clear solution. June sales were recorded as 1,049 units domestically and 47,085 units for export.

As a result, cumulative sales for the first half of the year reached 275,523 units, a 10.5% increase compared to the same period last year, surpassing the 270,000-unit mark. The first-half cumulative figures stand at 5,271 units domestically and 270,252 units for export. Performance in the second quarter also totaled 142,975 units, up 4.5% from 136,838 units in the same period last year, maintaining a steady growth trend.

While there is no clear solution to overcome weak domestic sales, strong performance in overseas markets drove overall results. June overseas sales totaled 47,085 units, with the Chevrolet Trax Crossover and Trailblazer playing key roles. The Chevrolet Trax Crossover sold 35,503 units, a 5.9% increase compared to the same month last year, leading the overall sales growth.

The Chevrolet Trailblazer also contributed with 16,582 units exported, a 9.9% increase compared to the same month last year. In the domestic market in June, 842 units of the Trax Crossover, 174 units of the Trailblazer, and 12 units of the GMC Sierra were sold. Gustavo Colosi, Executive Vice President, evaluated that the two models, which GM Korea has fully developed, are maintaining strong sales momentum in the global market and driving first-half performance.
