GM's truck sales (210,996) were down 4 percent and car sales (135,062) were down 5 percent. 'GM's October sales results were not as strong as we had expected, but not entirely surprising given our exceptionally strong sales in September,' said John Smith, group vice president GM North America Vehicle Sales, Service and Marketing. 'Our launch vehicles performed well in October, as did utilities, which were up and remain on pace to set another industry record for the calendar year. We expect stronger car sales in the months ahead as Pontiac G6, Buick LaCrosse and Chevrolet Cobalt continue ramping up production.' GM Truck Sales GM's truck sales in October declined 4 percent versus year-ago levels. Sport utility vehicle deliveries were up 1 percent and maintained their record-setting sales pace. GM again led the industry in utility sales in October, surpassing the 100,000-unit sales mark for the seventh month this year. October utility deliveries were led by strong sales of two new entries, the Chevrolet Equinox and Cadillac SRX. Mid-size utility sales increased 4 percent, with strong sales results for Chevrolet TrailBlazer, up 32 percent and GMC Envoy, which gained 29 percent. Mid-size pickup deliveries increased 26 percent on the strength of the all-new Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon. This is the second consecutive month that medium pickup sales were up 25 percent or more compared to year-ago levels. GM Car Sales While GM's total car sales declined 5 percent compared to last October, several vehicles had year-over-year increases including Cadillac XLR; Chevrolet Malibu, Impala, Corvette and Monte Carlo; Pontiac Bonneville; and Buick LeSabre.
